Title: Just had to show off the gorgeous Clyde
Post by: Dawn (DiddyDawn) on May 28, 2007, 00:36:27 AM
Clyde is a gorgeous Tabby that I rehomed with his sister a while ago.  He was a feral babe but seemed to respond to fusses whilst he was here.  On rehoming, he gradually turned into Satan  :Crazy:  He went from being shy to a nasty little horror that spent all his time hissing and spitting and then proceeded to attack with a vengeance  :sneaky:  His sister on the other hand, settled really well and responded by being loving and a joy to have around  :Luv:  I had to go round and pick Clyde up as the whole family was petrified of him, I thought they were exaggerating until I got there  :evillaugh:  He reacted badly with me as well, I had to gently get him into a carrier using a cushion and I took him straight to the vets to make sure nothing was wrong.  Half way there he stopped hissing and started meowing, I gently put my hand near the carrier and he started nuzzling me  :givein:  I still took him to the vets just in case as sometimes cats/kittens respond to pain by being nasty and I wanted to rule out any injuries.  He was checked from head to foot and nothing was found......the vet put his behaviour down to being frightened   :'(  I took him home and sadly he had blown his new home as they were all petrified  :sigh: but it was fully understandable.  Anyway, he settled in again here no problem........it was as if he hadn't been away, and took to his normal fusses again no problem.  Cats are so strange and I would love it if we knew what was going on in their heads   :evillaugh:

Anyway, here's a couple of pics of the gorgeous lad  :Luv:  :Luv:

Ohhhh my what a babe ...perhaps he just wanted to be with you Dawn ..after all he is notstupid and can guarantee more fuss than your average puddy tat  :rofl:

He looks so content you would never think that he could be so horrible !

Looks can be deceiving  :evillaugh:  Since I've had him back, he's been a sweetheart but he's always been alright with me anyway  :Luv:  :Luv:  He was a little unsure of my sons and did give my eldest a whack a few times and also hissed at him but he's fine with them now.  It does put you off rehoming them when they react badly though, as it's unfair on them to rehome for them to come back again.......maybe he just wasn't ready at the time  :Dont know:  Anyway, I'm in no rush for him to go anywhere, he is such a babe and gets on really well with all mine  :Luv:  :Luv:

I agree with Littlebobo - he clearly enjoyed his home with you, so had to act naughty in the new place so he'd be returned! Clever boy. Cute pics - I love the one where he's stretching.  :Luv:

Just look at the little mister!  Butter certainly wouldn't melt...

I think he is lovely.  :Luv:  I do think that if I had room (and a not so snooty cat which will remain nameless) I would be taking a lot of these babies in. Just look how cute he is!  I can feel myself resorting to babytalk now so will end my post!

Awww, Clydes lovely. :) Hopefully, he's going through a "rebellious" phase with his little bit of cattitude! ;)

Don't get any ideas about catnapping him  :evillaugh:  I've warned Boston you will be coming over and he's looking forward to cuddles that he wasn't ready for last time, and Jimmy is looking forward to having some Scottish head butts  :evillaugh:

Cleo is still a daddy's girl and still a spoilt little brat  :evillaugh:  I still threaten her with her aunty Lainey and she goes and hides  :evillaugh:  :rofl:  Smudge has gone really soft the last few months, she has turned into a mummy's girl  :Luv:  :Luv:  Alfie and Billy are still my gorgeous boys and Tiger is now a total fuss pot.........I'm sure you will get lots of cuddles when you come over, just make sure you don't have any bacon butties or Mini Soot will show his bad manners again :evillaugh:  :evillaugh:

 :rofl:  :rofl:  Boston has never quite recovered from the Rampant Soot attack although he does spend all his time with Tiger now  :oolala:

He is a little cracker but he's turning me grey with his exploits  :evillaugh:

Clyde is beautiful......I think Bobby is going to have similar markings with longer, fluffier hair.
