Oh she is so beautiful...

She is so pretty. Shame about the ear but I suppose it is quicker and more easy to spot than a tattoo.

Angie, if it's anything like what the TNR do here, it's just a small v-shaped notch in the ear, not disfiguring at all. No worse than the ears of some old battle-scarred toms. It makes it easy for those checking a feral colony to spot those who have been neutered already.

Thanks guys she is a poppet, I will be sure to get some pics of mum too when she comes home. Mum is similarly coloured and so are the other babies she had so i'm told.

Everyone is so happy it worked out, she's a lovely wee thing and my uncle is besotted with her lol! This is the man who used chase cats from his garden!

The tip of her ear has been completely cut off Eileen, if you look in the last pic you can see especially.

I stand corrected; I did miss that the first time around. Seems a bit excessive to me ...

Such lovely colour and markings on Polly. She and her mum are lucky girls. Tis a pity about the eartip though. Although it's for a good reason it could be less drastic
