Title: Been to the Canterbury CP get together
Post by: Mark on July 27, 2007, 16:41:45 PM: It was really great. I met Blackcat, Pinkbear, Sharon and loads of others there. There were about 30 people there and people (not me :evillaugh: ) brought food with them and there was some pretty impressive home made grub .- it was like a deli counter - Wine, tea, orange etc were drunk. We had a good old chinwag oh and at some point there was some talk of cats :evillaugh:

I did take some catfood though so Caroline's Persians will be dining on Perfect Fit tonight ;D ( they are her "longterm" fosters - ie they will never get rehomed due to age/health but Caroline isn't complaining :Luv: )

The only bit of sad news there is one of Carolines Persians went to the vets today (one of the foster cats) and he has liver cancer,,, terminal i am afraid so not much to be done.. Caroline is a lovely fosterer and we knew these two wouldnt be with her for long, but its a sad story to end a lovely afternoon for her....

I wanted to take all the cats and dogs home. :Luv:

What a shame - is he the one that as the Lymphomas? - he was purring for england last night and seemed so contented :'(
I know she is particularly fond of the persians and was cuddling him just before I left yesterday. As you said, Caroline is a lovely lady. I'm sure he couldn't be in a better place to spend his last days.

Nice to put faces to names and to have a chance to see cat rescue in action. I look forward to doing anywork that I can for you.
