Title: Hi fellow cat slaves
Post by: alexgirl73 on March 30, 2007, 08:25:13 AM
I'm Alex, and I'm from Telford. I am owned by 3 cats. Broxi, my semi long haired moggie (who's actually a parrot in disguise), Cooper a black and white psychopath, and the princess of the family Miss Teddie Bear, a cream tabby exotic! Hope to get to know you and your furry owners ;D

Hi Alex  :welcome:  What gorgeous babes  :Luv:  :Luv: Where did you say you live?  I think I will have to come over and catnap Teddie  :evillaugh: ........he is scrumptious  :Luv:  :Luv:

Post by: alexgirl73 on March 30, 2007, 10:48:53 AM
not a chance lol! and he's a she lol!!

My Teddie has had a rough start in life. I got given her for 'free' by a breeder (yes I know warning bells should have rung then), and she had ringworm, ear mites, eye discharge, fleas, and chronic diarrhea. And when I say chronic I mean that it has taken us until the last few weeks ie 6 1/2 months, to get her to the stage she is at now where she isn't running all over the place! But I love my little girl with a vengeance and I've had some very wonderful friends help me out with some very expensive vet bills. Cat lovers, we're a mad lot!! ;D

She beautiful anyway  :Luv:  :Luv: I'm so pleased you've managed to get her sorted out, some  :censored: should be ashamed of themselves.  If you ever want a home for her, I'm only in Flintshire......it won't take me long to get to you  :evillaugh:

Oh almost forgot, I'll pick Teddie up at the same time  :evillaugh:  :rofl:

Post by: alexgirl73 on March 30, 2007, 12:25:12 PM
LOL@Dawn! (Alex makes careful note to self to lock Teddie in a cupboard if Dawn ever comes to visit)

My little torties (as I call them) Stripe, Smudge and Little Lady repectively are soooo gorgeous! tbh I don't really know how old they are. I know the youngest 2 (Smudge and Lady) are around the 4/5 month mark. I have watched them grow up since the first time I saw them when they were about 8 weeks old :Crazy:. Stripe I don't think is their mother as she was only about 4/5 months old the first time I saw her then, I think she is a sibling. I have managed to rehome 3 cats that have wandered into my garden so far, 2 ferals and one stray who we tried everything to find her owner. I have phoned the CPL on a number of occasions and emailed, not had one single reply from them >:(. I'm just very worried about them as it 'is the season'!!!! They come to my back door and yowl to be fed now;D, and as I say, I can even get to pick them up most times also. They have brought a new wee friend the last few weeks, a little tabby who is very friendly. I can't work out whether she is a feral or stray, but she doesn't want to leave either!!!! I swear there's a neon sign somewhere saying mad cat lady this way!! :innocent:

Post by: Dawn (DiddyDawn) on March 30, 2007, 12:34:22 PM
Leave it with me........I may be able to sort something out for them.  My friend works for the CP, she is wanting me to rehome a ginger feral with some of my ferals that are going on a farm, in return, she may know somewhere that will take young ferals.......the homes are homechecked, cats will be done and they will be well looked after.  I will try and sort something out........even if it's just getting them done in the meantime.  If we can arrange something and you can get hold of them, that would be so much easier than us having to come over and trap them. 

I'll bring my dog with me so she can sniff out Teddie's hiding place  :evillaugh:  :evillaugh:

If you can that would be absolutely fabulous Dawn, I worry so much about these little girls! And they are too lovely to have the life they do! :hug: Getting a hold of them wouldn't be a problem, lol, I just have to open the back door and rattle the food box!!!

Post by: Dawn (DiddyDawn) on March 30, 2007, 12:46:10 PM
I will do my best, the kids break up today and they're off for 2 weeks.........I will try and get over before they go back, leave it with me to sort a day out as I've got loads on at the moment  :hug:
Title: Re: Hi fellow cat slaves
Post by: alexgirl73 on March 30, 2007, 12:49:42 PM
well, I'll be off line as from tonight as my 2 break up to and we're off to Scotland for a week! I'll give Elaine my mobile number and if you manage to get something sorted for the week after then you can let Elaine know. Much appreciated Dawn.

I had the pleasure of meeting Alex's 3 babes today and they are all adoreable  :Luv:  :Luv:  I wish now I'd put a jacket on with big pockets so I could sneak out Teddie  :evillaugh:  :evillaugh:  She really did want to come home with her aunty Dawn, she let me pick her up and give her a big fuss, I could see it in her eyes, she wanted me as her future mummy but Alex kept distracting me so I would forget about sneaking her out  :censored:
