Title: Fantastic news for one special boy
Post by: Dawn (DiddyDawn) on June 07, 2007, 13:37:01 PM
I've got mixed emotions today but mostly happy ones.  I put Jimmy on my rehoming page a couple of days ago and already I've had an enquiry about him  :Crazy:  :Crazy:  I'm doing a homecheck this afternoon for him and I'll be taking him along with me as they've already got everything in for him.  If everything is okay and it's love at first sight for Jimmy as well, he can join his new family today.  Fingers crossed for this gorgeous boy, I will miss him sooooo much but it will be lovely for him to find his forever home  :)  And the best part about it is, he won't be far away so I can still go and see him  ;)

 :rofl:  He's about 10 year old, not sure really http://www.catchat.org/flint/cgibin/prview.cgi?id=2007060401

As for a cuppa, I'm sure I've got a few recruits here that I can muster up to do the job  ;)

Yes, Jimmy had mammary tumours but is absolutely fine now.

His homecheck couldn't have gone better  ;D  Jimmy didn't stop chirruping and his new "slaves" are absolutely smitten with him  :Luv:  :Luv:  :Luv:  They couldn't get over his size and thought he was going to be a lot smaller  :heeee heeee:  It is a very small world as well, his daddy "slave" used to be one of our local bobbies and I've known him quite a few years but putting that aside, he's gone to a fab home  ;)

And I've got some more good news, they want another cat to go with Jimmy  :Crazy:  :Crazy: They want him to settle in for a few days first, and as he's special, they want him to be King Pin  :)  I was thinking either Katie or Chloe would be the perfect match for both Jimmy and the family as both are very sweet and loving  :Luv:

He is a handsome dude  :Luv:  :Luv:  The pic with Minnie was taken not long after his op and when his fur and skin were in bad nick, but I'm glad the colour has now improved  :shify:  The house feels really weird today without him but I must say, I'm soooo happy for him to finally find a loving home  :Luv:  :Luv:

I spoke to Jimmy's new mummy this morning and they are all totally in love with this little fella...........I'm over the moon for him.  His new mum has described him as special and she can't quite find the words to describe how they all feel about him, it's like he's been there forever and already has them trained.  The first night she carried him up to bed and he's now taken over it  :heeee heeee:  Her hubby has been working nights and because Jimmy was purring so loudly, he asked if she could keep him quiet a little longer so he could have some kip   :rofl:  When I spoke to her this morning, he'd already had his breakfast and gone back to bed  :rofl:  Anyway, here's a couple of pics of him settling down in his new home  :Luv:  :Luv:

I wish I could have kept him........Jimmy was my type of cat and he'd settled down so well but sadly you can't keep them all  :'(  I'm sure he'll be happier in his new home though as he will be number one and he'll get all the attention that he wants  :Luv:  :Luv:
