Olivia is beautiful, I would guess a silver and cream??????????????? I would just let her find her paws and then consider rehoming other kitties.

I can't believe I missed this thread. 

Congratulations on becoming a persian slave Stuart.  It sounds like she is settling in just fine.  We had to hand feed Smartie when she first arrived - she still does the hooking food out of the bowl with her paw thing.

The ped names are strange aren't they my lot are Topsy Turvey Taste of Honey (Summer), Topsy Turvey Tapestry (Smarty) and Topsy Turvey TinaTurna (Skye).  My beautiful bridge babe Sasha RIP was Supurrla Chocolate Swirl.

Back in the days when we had only 2 cats and a table that sat 4 Sweetie and Toerag had their own places and would get a treat saucer whilst we ate our evening meal! ;D

Did cause issues when we had friends for dinner nothing like 2 black cats sitting eyeing up the visitors in their chairs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :shocked:

Currently ours eat on the kitchentable - we don't they eat and sleep on the dining room table and we eat of our laps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Olivia is doing very well so quickly and reckon she will be eating out of your hand off a plate before long  ;D

She will probably want a chair with a cushion and a place setting at the table though  :rofl: :rofl:

Yes unfortunately that is a downside of Eye Envy, even though its good stuff it only keeps for 3 months in the fridge. Saying that, I have brought a big bottle before and put half in the freezer, still seemed to work ok.

She will get used to the routine in your house I'm sure.  :hug:

yes Liz, there are times I feel as if I'm being ganged up on  :doh:  :evillaugh:
I was up at 5am, tis the OH that can be Lazy, sshe was up for half an hour then went back to bed  :doh:

Thank you so Much for that Info Gillian, I'd phoned Liz Rennie last night, "Olivia's Mum" and she did offer to come round if things didn't improve
just one more thing Gillian, Does the cleaning fluid have a use by date or does it keep for ages ? (as I'm thinking of getting the 32oz's )

sfunny she spends all morning and half the afternoon wedged between the Bed and the wardrobe ( she will come out if you speak to Her tho  :Luv: ) then comes through the
house by herself, think it must still be ingrained into her with being kept in the shed, that she is not used to human company all through the day  :(
I first got offered Her nearly 2 years ago, wish I took her then Now  :doh:

Sheesh ........... not only do we have to wash Her face twice a Day, but we have also to Hand feed Her  :shocked:


Bless her!  :Luv2: She's settling in fine by the looks of it.

I had exactly the same thing when Zeta came, she was 13 and had lived all her life with one owner, so was quite scared to start with, she wouldnt eat, then, when Mum was round here she offered her a morsel and she ate it with relish - and again, and again, and again - only if it was hand fed to her LOL!  It took me a while to get her eating from a plate, but she did eventually and never looked back  :)

She is getting Better by the day, and basically follows us everywhere  :Luv: some noises she ignores now but others I.E. washing machine, still make Her wary  :scared:
Caught Her drinking out of the Bath tap yesterday, so I got rid of the bowl with still water and got the Drinkwell out, which She has drank from several times  :)
was getting worried about Her not eating Gill, as you said, I did read that if they do not eat, they can knacker up their Liver  :(
She has now eaten a lot of Hill's, although Not really by Herself, we had to take one piece at a time and put it down in front of Her before she would take it  :doh:

Sheesh ........... not only do we have to wash Her face twice a Day, but we have also to Hand feed Her  :shocked:
I think She's Telling us She's got Royal blood, and is just making sure that we don't forget it  :evillaugh:
Tried Her with a load of different food stuffs ( although I didn't want to, because I think thats where the fussiness in Cat's stem's from  :shify: )
nothing tempted Her anyway, just glad she has had something to eat now  :)

She's a Lovely wee thing, and Go's Belly up for us quite often  :Luv: :Luv: ( I think she's still a bit overwhelmed by all the attention tho  ;) )
She doesn't sleep on the bed yet tho, and spends most of the night sitting on the window sill's watching everything outside, she has also discovered that we have starling's
nesting in my Balcony, and that there are Pigeon's that frequent here a lot too  :wow: and immediately goes into stealth mode, How low can you go !!  :evillaugh:

will try and get some photo's of her once she's really settled in, and I'll keep you's all updated on Her Progress  ;)

I believe that they should eat by 48 hours cos if they dont they start to put their liver at risk.....is she drinking? How about some cat milk?

I would get some basic pouches of different makes and flavours and see if any of them will tempt her. There is always pichards in tomato sauce which is supposed to be a desired thing! Fresh chicken, prawns !! LOL

How about letting her lick some food off your finger Stuart, or let her see you giving her something off your plate (although that might lead to her begging every time you eat!!).  She's probably just settleing in and will be eating you out of house and home soon.

Fingers crossed.

Sorry I wasn't on again yesterday, OH and I came down with a bug and we were both firing at both ends  :sick:

Willow is so cute, even with the bald bit , nasty Kylie  >:( :evillaugh:

Olivia is getting braver by the minute, and has now ventured into every room in the house, unfortunately, everytime there is
a noise that she is unsure of, she darts for the safety of the spare bedroom  :( has tooken to sitting on the window sill there
loves looking out, I suppose there's a bit more to see from there rather than sitting in a shed  :)

I don't know if she is missing Feline company?? as during the night, she must have spent 65% of the time wanering about meowing  :(

We have really one Big concern tho, she has now been here for 36hrs and hasn't eaten anything of substantial quantity  :scared:
Liz told me she loves HILL'S Chicken, i bought 2 big bags, she has yet to taste it  :( she has had a little drink of water and I saw her
eat one whiskas Temptation, I tried Her with Pearl chicken in white sauce this morning, and she just gave it a couple of licks  :(
I keep telling myself she will eat when she gets hungry, but how long do I wait ??
Has anyone else experienced this before ???
She has done a little wee in the tray
