Stig has arrived he is tiny and very timid, Polo had a hiss when he was in the carrier and have set him up in the spare room. He came with a cage so set that up with litter food a box for him to hide in which he promply did :) left the room to let him settle a bit after his car journey. Went to check on him after 20 mins and he had managed to escape from the cage, don't know how but the corner squares are biggest and think he managed to squeeze through and he is now hiding under the spare computer table :) but the room is closed off just going to make it harder to introduce him to the boys if he can walk through cages :)
Pics later (he's crambed himself in the corner)
-
Poor little Stig, he sounds very frightened,
Try spending some quiet time with him and try feeding him by hand ;D
-
What is Stigs story, hOrZa?
I hope he wasnt found on a dump :scared: but, in any case, he has landed on his paws now with you :)
-
Aahh, hope he settles in well. Look forward to the pics when he's not so camera shy!
-
Oh bless him! A little houdini, hm? Sounds like the boys (and you) are gonna have your hands full with this little scrap! ;D
-
Poor Stig, give him lots of hugs and cuddles from us :Luv:
-
I thought you were getting him Tuesday, Horza? Either way, good luck helping Stig realise people aren't all bad. ( I guess the rescue workers already started that. :) )
-
Yes I think he was rescued from a dump :) about a week ago. he is 7 weeks old
held him now and made the cage escape proof (for now :) ) wore gloves at first and while he hissed and spat at me he never scratched or bit me :)
Plans were pushed up as circumstances had changed at him rescue home
Have a pic which will upload soon but its taken of him under the chair lol
-
I must have missed Stig's story :tired:
Sending him lots of love and gentle cuddles :Luv:
-
Ahhh, thought that might be the case. Least it meant you got Stig sooner. :)
-
Best wishes with little Stig. ;D
-

-
Awww, :Luv: I'm sure he'll soon settle in.
-
Awwwww Stig is gorgeous :Luv:
I'm sure in time and with lots of TLC he'll be a wee cuddlebum :Luv:
-
Aww, bless him, and I am sure it wont take long at that age.
-
Gorgeous kitty :Luv:
Hope he settles in soon
-
Oh poor little thing... I hope he can come out of his hiding and join in the sweet cuddling with Marco and Polo!! :Luv:
-
Ahhhh - hmmmm - if I was Stig, I'd be eyeing up Marco and Polo and thinking "snuggles - I'll have a bit of that!"
He's gorgeous bless him. And his two new bruvvas ;)
-
:Luv: Stig :Luv: Hope he settles down soon enough, as for Marco and Polo - how cute are they :Luv:
-
So cute! :Luv: :Luv:
-
Stig is lovely and being so young I am sure its kjust time and TLC ;D
Marco and Polo are just gorgeous and I love they way they cuddle ;D
-
how's he doing today h0rZa?
-
Much better today he lets me hold him no trouble and purrs and kneads :) He will also eat from my hand. The boys are still having a hiss though :( and are not keen that I smell of him
He is escaping the cage with increasing ease (not sure how :) he may be able to walk through the bars, heroes fashion lol) so have left the cage open and put his food outside of it, also there was an old bed (mouse like igloo) of Marco's and Polo's and he is sleeping in there, have put my t-shirt in there with him for him to get used to my scent and it seems to be working :)
He is also using the litter tray like a good trooper :)
-
Couple of new pics :)
-
Awww he is sooo cute :Luv:
That's great news that he let you cuddle him ;D and I'm sure Marco and Polo will come round soon ;)
-
He is gorgeous little boy. ;) :hug:
-
He really is scrumptious! He looks right fierce, but so - vulnerable! :rofl: The boys will come round - they just need time. He sounds adorable and he looks even better. Love the fact he's an "escaper" - a super-hero with "powa"
-
Oh poo! I sussed you were getting him early, left a "Hmmm" in the kitten thread then missed this :doh:
Aw bless him he is beautiful....dont worry about Marco and Polo they are being normal...I bet it will be no time before they are all running around together :Luv: :Luv: :Luv:
-
I hope so its very hard to leave the boys to spend time with him and when I am playing with the boys I feel sorry for him on his own in the spare rrom :(
-
Hec is just so cute ;D
-
Hello, long time gone and I see much has changed.
Sadly Stig passed away on the 21st of July. We had almost 15 years together and words can't describe the loss.
Hug your furry family members tightly tonight.
Take care
Rob.
