Hiya Lynds.   :hi:  Lovely to see a piccie of Nobo, who is - it has to be said - a  very splendid looking fellow.

Gosh, your job sounds interesting!  It's great that your parents are so near and can help out with Nobocare.  :)  Am glad you're getting to know the little feller's ways and habits, and I bet with his background he is so enjoying settling into his new home.  I think, if it were me, I'd plump for getting him a companion sooner, rather than later, on the basis that they can get used to their patch together, and hopefully lessen any feeling of territorialism towards each other that might crop up.  It's perfectly feasible to leave it longer and still find they would settle down together well though, if you didn't feel up to having another new pud so soon    :hug:  (double the trouble of course!  :evillaugh:)


Thanks to everyone who's said hi and thanks for your kind comments.

I did go and get another moggy - that's a whole NEW post I need to write!!

 :Crazy:

Hi Lynds
Have only been here a couple of weeks myself, so hardly feel qualified to say  :welcome: , But I can say that you'll love it here - I do, everyone is fantastic!  :)
And I'm really not far away from you, in Airdrie.  Although I'm not quite Scottish, I have been here nearly 10 years.
Nobo looks fab too, I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun together.


Hey,

Airdrie is not far away at all. Thanks for saying hi!   8)

Thanks everyone. I look forward to chewin the fat with many of you about our moggies.

Thanks for that link too. I'll have a read it at.

Do you think it's better to get Nobo's buddy sooner rather than later? I mean, do I let him settle in first or should I get the buddy before he gets too settled?   :sneaky:

I've posted a couple of times under health & behaviour, but thought I'd introduce myself properly.

I'm Lyndsey (my friends call me Lynds) and I'm proud to serve my new little guy Nobo. I adopted him on Tuesday. He's a 10 month old Tuxedo rescue cat who has been through a lot. Considering his abusive background, he has the most loving little personality and just loves to be held and kissed. The poor soul only has half a tail. It just makes me so sick and angry that people can hurt any animal, never mind this little fella. We live in Motherwell, Scotland which is about 25 mins from Glasgow.

I've grown up with cats my whole life but this is the first time I've had one of my own. I was so anxious when I got him, which surprised me. I think the sudden responsibility kicked in and I felt quite overwhelmed. Is he happy? Does he want out? Can I handle him being an outdoor cat? Is it cruel to keep him indoors? Does he like me? etc etc. I'm learning to chill a bit more though but still a little worried. It doesn't help that all our family cats have been indoors, so I'm lost as to what to do.

I'm already thinking about getting him a buddy as my job takes me across Europe and the Middle East. I'm lucky that my parent's live 5 mins from my home so they can take care of him, and when I'm not travelling, I'm based from home. Anyway, I think it would be a good idea if he had a friend. Then that starts me thinking will they like each other? what if they don't? etc etc.

Anyway, I hope to my make some new cat buddies on here.

Lynds  :Luv:
