Just read through this whole threadand am going to sign off now with a lovely happy tail to dream about. Really well done Dave. Sonia is fab. Neit too of course.

Oh good news. More money for our babes!!! Would love the morphing stuff for myself but would only play with it a while then stop using it. Some of our peeps can use it more effectively I am sure...

DaveD · « **Reply #57 on:** November 23, 2007, 19:19:07 PM »

No problem, I was going to give the software away anyway, so I rang the company up and asked if that was OK. Apart from the Morphing program, all the software is made by Serif, and they want the programs distributed (so long as they aren't illigal copies) and they were very happy for me to pass it on to anyone. The morphing program was distributed by Serif, so that one's OK too.

good man!!! may have to be careful about product description in case of breaches of law etc, so PM enquiries for details perhaps?

DaveD · « **Reply #55 on:** November 23, 2007, 19:07:16 PM »

I've got some duplicates of other software too. Some of it has manuals, so I'm going to have to weigh them to work out the postage!

blackcat · « **Reply #54 on:** November 23, 2007, 19:00:05 PM »

hmmmmmmmm I wonder....

there are some very creative types on this forum... and there is an auction coming up in the near future ...

DaveD · « **Reply #53 on:** November 23, 2007, 18:58:40 PM »

Somehow I've ended up with two copies (legitimate copies that is!) I wonder what I can do with the other one.

blackcat · « **Reply #52 on:** November 23, 2007, 18:40:59 PM »

wow!! that's amazing - what a fun bit of software!!!

DaveD · « **Reply #51 on:** November 23, 2007, 17:23:49 PM »

I recently got a new bit of software that allows me to make morhing pics, and this one sums up Sonia nicely, still full of beans after 5 ¹/₂ months!

Glad that she is doing well and starting to get on with the others.

Beccles · « **Reply #49 on:** September 25, 2007, 01:47:58 AM »

Gosh, Sonia looks JUST like Ollie

Ollie was only meant to last a few weeks, too... he's the same as Sonia, a palliative-care foster.

He arrived in early October.

Getting very wobbly now, but hey - I've stopped trying to second-guess him now. He'll let me know when it's time for him to go.

DaveD · « **Reply #48 on:** September 25, 2007, 00:27:20 AM »

It's been slow going getting Sonia socialised with the others, because I kept her separate for quite a while to start with. She was so weak I couldn't take the risk of them using her litter tray, or sharing food bowls, and passing on something that they could more easily shake off. She's much stronger now, so I think it's worth the risk. She now has the run of the house, and is getting more confident all the time, even going to pinch their food! Until today she'd only do that if there was a maximum of one cat in her path, but she had to pass all three.
This was taken a few minutes ago, with Neit on the left.

She's looking fabulous Dave

Bazsmum · « **Reply #42 on:** September 15, 2007, 09:15:50 AM »

Aw Sonia is beautiful DaveD....she looks as happy as ever

....OOoo and i caught a glimpse of Pimpernel also

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #41 on:** September 14, 2007, 23:06:47 PM »

Of course you did

DaveD · « **Reply #40 on:** September 14, 2007, 23:06:12 PM »

I've just had a pizza, so of course I had to cut a few bits of cheddar to keep her occupied while I ate!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #39 on:** September 14, 2007, 22:17:21 PM »

Sonia looks amazing and her eyes are wonderfully healthy looking, long live Sonia

DaveD · « **Reply #38 on:** September 14, 2007, 22:09:45 PM »

On top of my internet problems, she insists on attention when I'm trying to type! I know I've spoilt her rotten, but she hasn't taken too much advantage, even though I can't sit down to dinner without her staring imploringly at my plate!

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #37 on:** September 14, 2007, 22:08:57 PM »

Go Sonia

She looks like she's doing fabulously well, amazing what a good home and TLC can do

Good to see you back too Dave, was only thinking that I hadn't seen you about for ages the other day.

Catjane · « **Reply #36 on:** September 14, 2007, 22:03:04 PM »

Awww ... she's beautiful!

The spit of my little Shanti

Let's hope a loving home will help to keep her health issues at bay - I'm sure she's in the very best of hands!

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #35 on:** September 14, 2007, 21:58:25 PM »

Bless her.

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #34 on:** September 14, 2007, 21:54:33 PM »

Well she's still looking fantastic and not like she's going anywhere soon (fingers crossed)

Fantastic job dave

DaveD · « **Reply #33 on:** September 14, 2007, 21:52:39 PM »

Well I've got my internet connection working at full speed at last

so I'll post an update, and some pics.
Apparently Sonia was only expected to last about a week, but she's still here after 3 months! She seems to be more active than ever, and from time to time I have to chase her down the road, peering into other people's gardens, hoping they won't complain!

Mark · « **Reply #32 on:** August 10, 2007, 07:54:27 AM »

Lets hope she's got plenty more life left in her yet - what an improvement!

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #31 on:** August 10, 2007, 07:44:41 AM »

She looks like she is doing well, and enjoying life. The only tests i would do at the vets is a blood test - cats can live long lives with both liver probs (Snowy had at least 10 months of raised liver enzymes before it developed into something more), and hyperthyroidism, she certainly looks like she has a will to live now.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #30 on:** August 09, 2007, 23:51:13 PM »

Oh yes I agree with you.

Lots of cuddles to Sonia

DaveD · « **Reply #29 on:** August 09, 2007, 23:48:28 PM »

Hyperthyroidism (I think I've got that right) and liver failure. I've got a feeling she may be going back to the vet for another check-up, but we've already decided against any invasive examination - either she's going to get better, or more likely she's not, in which case there's no point in making her suffer during the short time she has left.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #28 on:** August 09, 2007, 23:18:09 PM »

Oh yes I remember the names now from the cat show

I have forgotten what is wrong with dear Sonia

DaveD · « **Reply #27 on:** August 09, 2007, 23:08:35 PM »

Neit (the other black one), Pimpernel (ginger), and Bramble (the tabby).
Sonia is shut away from them at night, just to be on the safe side (she probably doesn't have long left and I don't want to stress her too much) so they aren't on the friendliest of terms, and it could take a while.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #26 on:** August 09, 2007, 22:50:18 PM »

Sonia is stunning

and who are all the others ?

DaveD · « **Reply #25 on:** August 09, 2007, 21:09:49 PM »

A few more pics, now my internet works properly (rain stopped play, but I was lucky, no flooding)
These pics are from the last few days. Sonia's been here almost 2 months - not bad considering she wasn't expected to last more than a week!
