Porriage was moved to Crawley and Reigate CP where he is currently in care. He is on their website and i think up for rehoming. He was rehomed out the area for obvious reasons (i.e his background and way he came into our care)

Porriage is still at the vets. Still snotty so he will be tested for things next week to see how best to treat with antibotics. Although better still needs to be at the vets.

I doubt Sharn could have Porridge as he would be concidered a risk to her cattery clients.  :doh:

I didn't think of that  :shy:

I didn't know about Sharn's dog   :'( (sorry, I had the wrong emoticon before). I always remember she had to shut him away before I went in the house  :evillaugh: She invited me over a few times but I never managed to get round to it. I saw her at Sharon's cream tea and another time outside Tesco  :evillaugh: - I really will have to get my finger out and see her over the easter break

That did cross my mind. I'm  not sure if she has another cat now but she does have a big scarey ex-police dog.



Mark, did you not know Sharn lost her doggie last year? He was PTS.  :(

Alice is over it I think. She was purring downstairs. I also got him t look at her back legs. He said there are no lumps so she is probably a bit arthritic. He said he doesn't like the idea of putting a cat on permanent Metacam unless they really are in pain and suggested I get her going on Glucosamine again. I have some Noractive and I asked if I could use up Willow's cystease and he said it should be fine as it is still glucosamine.

The Vet & VN have just left after seeing Alice (she has had a convenia jab and eye stain to make sure her eye isn't scratched)
I asked about Porridge and the VN said he is having good & bad days and they are getting to the stage where the good days are beginning to outnumber the bad  :)
She said he is still very snotty and if you are nearby when he sneezes, you are covered  :evillaugh:

She said he is a real character and it seems they are really fond of him  :Luv2:

When Sharon told me this morning I had forgotten who he was until I looked at the old thread. I remembered how besotted Sharn was. She adored him and she sees a lot of cats running her own cattery. It is cat heaven where she lives. Semi rural with a huge garden.

Mark you could just foster him! 

Alice was a foster!  :evillaugh:

She just keeps sneezing every once in a while and has done for ages. Also one of her eyes runs a bit once in a while. It could be the heater. Her appetite is fine and she is well in herself - as well as she ever has been - ie never leaves the room

If I allowed my heart to rule my head, I would have him - but I know OH really would not be happy. As it is, I have the vet coming tomorrow as Alice is having problems.

There is a follow-up to this.

Sharon told me this morning that the people who rehomed him, who appeared to be very nice turned out to be not such great owners. Apparently, Porridge liked to go walkies. Also his cat flu came back and the "caring new owners" couldn't be bothered to deal with it. They phoned over xmas saying they wanted rid and Sharon found a place at the NHC but they couldn't be bothered to take him there. Last week, Sharon took a call from a neighbour saying that porridge was at her patio door in a very bad state - the owners had abandoned him. Sharon advised the legal aspect of signing over and the nice neighbour made the owners sign him over to CP - he is still at the vet recovering  :(
