Title: We passed the rspca homecheck - phew!
Post by: Cooper & Peanut on October 02, 2010, 11:55:39 AM

A lady from the RSPCA came to the house earlier, to make sure Cooper and Peanut were settling in okay and that we weren't keeping them locked in a box in the cellar etc...

I went mad tidying the house, lighting insence sticks, the smell of fresh coffee and bread oozing from the kitchen (didn't actually make bread or fresh coffee but it sounds good  :rofl:)

I expected Cooper and Peanut to make a total show of me by coming across all timid and scared, flinching at my every move... Did they deliver I hear you cry? Oh yes! The little terrors hid from me and were being very cautious around me and the lady  :shify:

I felt like I was being interviewed!! :scared: She asked her questions and seemed quite happy with everything. She said I could start and let them out now (unlike what they said when we collected them, said I had to keep them in for 6 weeks!!!! :Crazy:)

Anyhoo, as soon as the woman went, C&P came bounding downstairs and were fussing round me and chirping as usual  :evillaugh:

I am a little bit nervous about letting them out. Hope they remember where they live and appreciate that their mummy wants them back safe and sound!  :scared:

its always horrible isn't it - the lady who did mine was shocked to see that I let me other cats on the sofa so i sort of thought I'd be ok!

Well done!

Yes i know how you feel about letting them out. I will be the same if we move.

Wait till they are hungry before take them out for justa few minutes with you with them and constantly talk to them. Them when you are done (10 mins or so) if they don't follow get the food!!!
