Here's Matilda - we decided not to keep her in the end :roll:
Several reasons - mainly as it's not really a good time for us to be taking on another cat

I'm a bit sad too Fran, but a lady was looking for a young adult cat as her husband had just keft her & she fell in love with Matilda, I'd been having 2nd thoughts about keeping her as we are having all this building work done & we are going away soon, so I thought maybe I should let this lady have her, who is over the moon & I just know Matilda will be spoilt rotten :cool:

Probably the right decision Smudgley. Glad Matilda has found a lovely new mum :cool:

Whatever descision you make is the right one Smudgley. I am certain Matilda will be happy I don't think those ferals are ever going to be lap cats though :roll: :shock:

Have Mags and Moli got homes yet? Bagpuss look slimline now, I am certain he is an old ladies/mans cat. But looks better now for the loss of weight I bet he feels better too.
And I have to say I love Arthur I can see why he got that name he's a proper gent whats his story?

Moli & Mags haven't got homes yet. The black one is FIV positive :(
Arthurs family left home & left him & another white cat, the neighbour has fed them for the last 2-3 years but can no longer do so. His mate got run over & killed, someone then phoned us & we took him in. He's lovely, a real proper Tom cat who's been round the block a few times. His coat is so greasy - he looks like he's lived ina mechanics garage all his life. He needs a bath, I might try & bath him once he's a bit more settled.

Thats a damned shame people should be shot fancy leaving him and his mate and good on the neighbours. :) for feeding them for a few years. Oscars fur used to look greasy I put it down to him being mostly white. Good luck in trying to give him a bath he does look a proper Tom cat is he being or has he been done?

They're all so gorgeous! Smudgley, you have got to be one of the most selfless people in the world. You put so much of yourself into these homeless cats. Giving Matilda to the lady who fell in love with her is only the icing on that cake, really.

They all look brilliant - and Arthur is excessively cute!

My goodness, Arthur is a white version of my old black boy, Ferdy. Right down to the lived-in look and greasy coat. My heart skipped a beat when I saw him . . .

It's beyond me how someone can just up and leave their pets. We have several similar cases, most of which have, thankfully now found new homes.

Bagpuss is adorable!! I hope he's reunited with his folks. I know he was a fattie, but he was obviously dearly loved and someone's frantic that he's missing :(

What brilliant pics, Smudgley. Hope Matilda finds a lovely home. Doesn't Bagpuss look well now really handsome.
