If I'd have thought this morning, I could have got the other vets to do the bloods for me and I could have taken them up to Sean's surgery to send off to Glasgow for me, by the time I'd thought about it, he had come round  :tired:

Ummm, kind of chunky, really solid. I know he looks pretty skinny here but imagine he'd look quite British if he filled out a bit. With the love of a nice warm Derbyshire home of course.....
...I've sent his pic to OH but don't hold your breath, he's still suffering from Alfie and Meggie. I think in his head he'd decided to give them a chance.

I think he would fill out, his cheeks are fairly round but that could be down to him being a full tom.  That would be fab if you ended up with him but he will need to be tested first, there's no panic as yet getting him a home so it will give you time to work on him   :naughty:  I'm going to take him to see Sean next week to get him blood tested, I could take him tonight but I think it will be too stressful with having the chop today.

Here's a particularly "cobby" example.

I think a siamese x british would be my dream cat. Cuddlesome and chatty, snoozy and very clever  :Luv:

...and I love c h o c o l a t e colourpoints too...

The vet nurse thought he had Siamese in him but I think she's looking more at his colouring, he seems a bit big to be a Siamese Cross but I could be wrong.

Mmmm..he's scrummy, I'm quite tempted myself. Looks like he could be half British. Is he quite cobby?

I know the other vets have all got animals, I think it's possible that because she is a new vet, this is why he says they can't have them initially.   I will see what happens, I would be happy him going to her as she's lovely and it was great that Willow let her give him cuddles  :Luv:

This gorgeous boy is back from the vets and both the vet and vet nurse have totally fallen in love.  The vet who is a new one is really nice and she had cuddles with him for about 10 minutes, she said she would love to have him but she rents her flat from the owner of the vets and he won't allow animals at this time  :sneaky:  I've told her to have a chat with him and see what he says, if not I'll have a word  :naughty:

Thanks Yvonne  :hug:  The vet nurse has dealt alot with FIV cats and she has a knack of knowing but I'm hoping she's wrong in this case.  She said he won't be well enough to live outside in the condition he's in and yet he looked so healthy to me  :Crazy:  He has a gorgeous coat on him and looks bright eyed, it really annoys me when people don't get them neutered  :mad2:  :mad2:

Just had a phone call off the vet nurse and this gorgeous boy has a pale look about him and is dehydrated, this can be an indication of FIV so he'll have to be tested at my other surgery once he's recovered from his op  :tired:  I really hope he isn't as no matter how gorgeous they are, this does effect rehoming them  :'(

I assume those lovely red eyes are a beautiful blue  :rofl: :rofl:

Yes they are Gill, how did you guess  :evillaugh:  He is gorgeous and apparently he's better with her dad and her kids than he is with her, I think maybe the old lady has done something to him to make him scared  >:(   I'm sure he'll settle down with some tlc, I tried to persuade her to loan a cage off me to keep him indoors for a few days and hopefully to get him used to hers but although she wants him to go indoors, she asked if I would keep him tomorrow night after the chop because otherwise he'd have to sleep in the shed  :'(  When I went to pick him up tonight, she said they've discussed him this evening and are hoping I can find him a home, and if I can't, she'll have him back there.  What I'm hoping is I can get him settled enough whereas he would settle with hers, I'm going to get him a full MOT tomorrow and get him vaccinated as well and just see how he gets on.

Had a phone call the other day off the secretary from my kids school.  She has been feeding a stray for about the last 6 months and she wanted him neutered and preferably rehomed as he was attacking her own cat which is only a youngster.  Apparently, he was owned by an old dear who moved and just left him  >:(  >:(  >:(  She said he acted slightly feral but he is just unsure and wary, he's let me give him some fusses and he is absolutely gorgeous  :Luv2:  :Luv2:  Not sure if he is a pedigree or cross, but I doubt he'll wait long for a loving home  :Luv2:
