Thankyou both. Im finding it hard not to ring the vets up to see how he is ![]() ![]() ![]() I was nervous about leaving him with the vets, especially as its not a vets i use-I have used them a couple of times in the past-once i had a good experience there and then i had an experience bad enough with a locum to put me off going back there but they were very understanding today and i thought it nice that they said they would ring me to let me know whats happening with him so i felt more at ease at leaving him there. Though i also feel guilty as i know he will be going crazy cooped up in a cattery for days ![]() I am dying to post a piccie, im being really paranoid though incase someone sees it and fancies themselves a free gorgeous kitten ![]() ![]() |

Oh how hard for you! Wise decision there though, it would be just typical that he was claimed just after he was settled nicely in your family. But what a difficult decision to have to make. Well done you. |

You are very strong! I think it was the right decision considering the circumtances. I took in my little lost hungry kitten with the intention of just giving her a meal and a bed overnight till I located her owner .... she died peacefully in her sleep 19 1/2 years later ..... |

But i admit that we cant stop thinking and talking about him. Im just confused over it because i keep wanting to go and steal him back from the vets and then my heart starts aching over Raven. Its hard to explain but i think if anyone is going to understand the feelings in having right now it will be all you fellow cat lovers who have been there and done that ![]() ![]() See what i mean, so confused!! I keep saying hopefully the decision will be made for us and he will have loving owners that reunite with him. But is it bad that a part of me hopes no one claims him? ![]() ![]() |

I do understand JB - it's such a dilemma. Just take a very deep breath and wait it out. No use worrying whether your boys will take to new kid if he's reunited with his owner. |

And if he isn't reunited with his owner and does come to live with you .... who knows? Perhaps Raven knew the little fellow would be welcomed and loved; the boys might be very accepting ... or just briefly grumpy .... no point worrying too much at this point, although I know your brain is going around like a whirligig now thinking of all the what-ifs ...... Glad you enjoyed my Misty story. She was a special litlte girl. |

![]() I just rang the vets to see how he is and if anyone had rang for him yet and they put me through to another lady because she had actually taken him home last night so that he wouldnt be cooped up in a cage for 7 days-feel very happy about that because thats one of the things i have been feeling guilty about. We had a chat and i told her we might be interested in adopting him if he isnt claimed-she asked some questions about our boys(are they neutered/chipped/vaccinated/age) but when i told her they were indoor only cats she asked why because she said the little ginger boy might not be happy about being kept indoors. This had crossed our minds too, we wondered whether he would be able to make the adjustment to living indoors after being outdoors. I guess we will know better by the weekend though as obviously this lady is keeping him indoors at the moment so she will be able to tell us if he has settled down or not. We are going to have another chat on saturday to see how things are going and if he has been claimed. She said if we are interested in him though that we can rehome him from the vets rather then sending him to the cats protection etc so i guess we will just wait and see what happens. Obviously we wouldnt want to take him on just for him to be unhappy here being kept inside, but then again maybe he will be young enough to get used to it quickly. AJ and Raven were actually born outside and raised in a shed and Hernie and Rhino were both let out as kittens before coming to us and all of our boys have never showed any interest in getting out-Rhino is the only one that likes wondering into the porch sometimes but he'd be off like a shot if we opened that door ![]() Anyway thought i would share the update with you all! Shall let you all know how he's getting on when i find out. Atleast he is safe and warm ![]() |
