Title: Jasper and Charlotte are looking for a home.
Post by: Dawn (DiddyDawn) on September 15, 2007, 23:36:19 PM
I had a phone call off Sean on Thursday asking if I would help in finding a home for 2 oldies.  A guy had been into the vets and said he was working away and there was no one to look after his 2 cats.  He's had them about 10 years and got them from a rescue as adult cats so they are between 10 and 15 years old.  He was moving away today and his plan was if he couldn't get anyone to take them, he was going to leave a mound of food outside his house and his daughter was going to come over once or twice a week to feed them  >:(  Of course, I couldn't leave them so ended up picking them up last night.  My friend said she'll take them in about 3 weeks if I've still got them but they will still be in a rescue so a home will still need to be found.  Charlotte is a gorgeous Tortie and extremely loving, her owner mentioned she was having problems eating and he had to chop her food up for her.  After picking her up, I took her straight to the vets for a check up and she has a Melanoma in her mouth.........she is now booked in on Wednesday for an op as Trevor said it needed to come out  :-:  She also has some tartar on her teeth, these will be cleaned on Wednesday when she goes in for her op.  Jasper is a tabby/white, very laid back and appears to be in good health.  He's had about 3 rta's over the years but doesn't seem to have any problems.  They will be looking for a home together where they can have access to a safe environment outdoors as they are used to going out.  They will be vaccinated and microchipped and any health issues will be sorted before they are rehomed.  If you think you may be interested in this gorgeous pair, you can either pm me or send me an email.  I will take some piccies when I get chance and post them.

It sounds daft but I think the guy actually cares about them but I couldn't believe he was prepared to evict them and just dump food outside  >:(  He actually lives on the same road as the vet and it's a busy road which he admitted was pretty dangerous so I'm a bit puzzled why he was going to just leave them  :-:

Charlotte has had her op this morning and I'm glad to say it wasn't a Melanoma  :)  It turned out to be a pellet from a Bebe gun  :censored:  :censored:  :censored:  Anyway, her bloods are fine and she's fine and will be ready to come home shortly.

Aw bless her, glad its not a melanoma, but poor thing for being shot with a Bebe gun  :(  Glad she's fine though, I really hope these 2 find a loving home together soon.

I'm really chuffed for them  ;D  The vet nurse had passed the lady's number onto me so she deals with the same vets which is great as I'll get regular updates.  They weren't bothered about the age or colour which was an absolute bonus as a lot of peeps want younger cats but these two are just gorgeous.  I've had a few oldies lately and I really can see the appeal  :Luv:  :Luv:
