My puter kept crashing! but here are a couple of him with all his things from Lauren's so things aren't strange, eventually we'll move them out.

Bazsmum · « **Reply #75 on:** August 02, 2009, 16:48:58 PM »

Aw bless him, he sounds so amazing the way he is sussing the place out!

Please tell Byron not to be scared of him, he is a proper gent and Im sure she will know that soon enough!

to your forever home Pepper!

Thanks JS

yep, to be expected with some cats I suppose, we've been really lucky with our last few cats, Smokey loved other cats so accepted Schui immediately, and Schui accepted Byron straight away too but she's a bit iffy, I think she's a bit scared tbh.

I think you kind of expect a "what do you think you're doing" reaction with most cats really....hope Byron settles down and glad Pepper is doing OK.

Janeyk · « **Reply #71 on:** August 02, 2009, 09:37:56 AM »

He's had a wonder round the kitchen and hall, eaten his food - and Byron's! and he's weed and pooed

I've spent time with him given him a good brush and cuddle and he seems fine. Byron's not too pleased though and was going to wee in my bag this morning

so feliwayed everywhere and keeping them separate for a while, giving her lots of reassurance too.

Dont know how ive missed this topic

what a lovely thing to do by adopting an oldie and especially one like Pepper, who is very handsome

how could anyone want to put such a lovely cat to sleep, i hope he soon settles in and has a lovely life with plenty of pampering and look forward to seeing more photo,s of him

Janeyk · « **Reply #69 on:** August 02, 2009, 05:40:28 AM »

I heard him during the night knock Byron's food dish off her little table (the one Schui used) so I fed him, we moved the barrier but he hasn't moved from his little corner as yet and Byron hasn't been in the kitchen I don't think, so we'll see today.

Yes Gill he seems very wary I've been watching him and it's interesting, although he's in a small area if he moves from from his cushion he sniffs all the other things as if to find a marker so he knows where everything is. Although Schui was deaf and then went blind it was very different for him because he knew where everything was but Pepper has no idea as yet so is bound to be reluctant to move from his comfort zone.

Great to hear that he's settling in already, am sure he'll be hungry in the morning.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #67 on:** August 01, 2009, 22:29:14 PM »

He sounds lovely and he came with his own little stool too.....so sweet.

I am sure he is tired cos he probably has to concentrate very hard to know whats going on and when everything smells new and he has moved locations, thats a whole lot of concentration

maryas · « **Reply #66 on:** August 01, 2009, 22:19:52 PM »

Aw, he sounds so sweet and maybe Byron's company will be what Pepper needs too.

Mary

Janeyk · « **Reply #65 on:** August 01, 2009, 20:41:55 PM »

I've taken some photos and will upload them in the morning. He's just sat sleeping on and off but he still knows everytime we go into the kitchen and bruups, he's so sweet! Byron growled when she first saw him and has peeped round the door a few times but tbh I don't think she'll give a damn she can't be bothered, which is good because she was my main concern.

Pep hasn't eaten his tea though which I hoped he would because it has his tablets in for his blood pressure and heart although that may be because he ate a fair bit this afternoon, I will give him his thyroid tablet later in a treat. I think I'll give him his tablets first thing on a morning to make sure he's really hungry and gets the meds down him.

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #64 on:** August 01, 2009, 20:30:36 PM »

Aww, things are sounding good.

maryas · « **Reply #63 on:** August 01, 2009, 17:40:08 PM »

Sounding good

Can't wait to see the photos.

his little stool which he likes to sit on,

Why does that little detail make me go misty-eyed?

I'm sure he will find his paws very quickly with you, Janey

Daisymac · « **Reply #61 on:** August 01, 2009, 16:26:30 PM »

Oooo how exciting, I am pleased he is settling in, you have a lovely evening in store

Janeyk · « **Reply #60 on:** August 01, 2009, 16:15:27 PM »

Pepper is here and settled, he's had 2 small dishes of food and lots of cuddles (he's been purring away, he's gorgeous

). He isn't supposed to be keen on catnip but I took one of Byron's stinkies in and he was having a little play with it when we looked

, poor boy it must feel strange though. We've set him up as he was at Laurens in the kitchen with his little stool which he likes to sit on, litter tray and other familiar things until he finds his paws. She also made a guard which he had in her flat so he was away from the other cats so we'll keep that for the time being as it keeps him in small area. I think he's tired now because he's dosing off, Lauren has just left and I'll take some photos later.

Baggy · « **Reply #59 on:** August 01, 2009, 14:55:41 PM »

Exciting news! Looking forward to more pics.

Liz · « **Reply #58 on:** August 01, 2009, 14:37:17 PM »

Hope Pepper lands soon and starts his lovely new life with you and yours Janey - we will of course need piccies once Pepper is in the mood!

Janeyk · « **Reply #57 on:** August 01, 2009, 13:15:42 PM »

Christine and Theresa

Lauren is nearly here but stuck in traffic she said he's quiet but gets a little angry and scratches a bit - he gets a bit frustrated I think but she stopped to give him a cuddle half way and he was so pleased and gave her slobbery kisses bless him

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #56 on:** August 01, 2009, 10:30:21 AM »

Wishing you and the very handsome Pepper a lifetime of happiness.

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #55 on:** August 01, 2009, 10:25:04 AM »

Looking forward to hearing about Pepper's (imminent

) arrival in his lovely new home

Janeyk · « **Reply #54 on:** August 01, 2009, 09:35:08 AM »

thanks Claire and we'll be expecting yours tomorrow

I've spoken to Lauren and she's leaving anytime

Daisymac · « **Reply #53 on:** August 01, 2009, 09:24:36 AM »

I bet you cant wait Janey, looking forward to seeing some photos later (no pressure like

)

Aww Pepper starting his new life today.

I wonder if Lauren is the lady who look after Teddy? IT was Josie who told me teddy is with a lady with 8 cats
Teddy was the cuddly b/w cat with rta i think.

Well good luck with Pepper.

Sorry Pav, I thought I'd clicked quote

She may be

I'll ask her, I do know Lauren has 8 cats

thanks

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #49 on:** August 01, 2009, 08:26:14 AM »

Fingers crossed for today

We will be expecting photos

I wonder if he's got his little bag packed

We offered to fetch him but Lauren wanted to bring him and settle him in so she'll be here about lunchtime, I think she may also be doing some more transport runs at the same time.

Bazsmum · « **Reply #45 on:** August 01, 2009, 01:38:07 AM »

Thinking of you picking up your gorgeous new adoption Janey.....What a wonderful new life will begin for him!

Jasmine · « **Reply #44 on:** July 30, 2009, 23:08:19 PM »

Pepper looks a first-class cuddle chops!

Millys Mum · « **Reply #43 on:** July 30, 2009, 18:05:03 PM »

Im currently getting Lolas meds down her in defurrums, i can pill her but she really fights so as theres 3 a day its much nicer for her

Gooey falls for the webbox stick trick

Janeyk · « **Reply #42 on:** July 30, 2009, 17:45:33 PM »

Thanks Clare, I'll get some of those tomorrow! I only bought them once when they had teeth and they liked them but don't seem to like really hard things now, Pep has teeth though so I bet he will like them

clarenmax · « **Reply #41 on:** July 30, 2009, 17:21:47 PM »

I'd defo recommend the defurrum treats hun, they're the only way I can get tablets inside Max, just break the biscuit in half, pop the pill inside, it gets hidden with the gooey deferrum paste, then pop the biscuit back together again

Janeyk · « **Reply #40 on:** July 30, 2009, 16:59:23 PM »

thanks, not long now! I spoke to Lauren today and asked if he'd like anything getting or any favourite food and she said no he will eat anything, bless him

he really protests at being given tablets though and they have to be crushed in his food so his thyroid one will be shoved in a prawn or Webbox

ems · « **Reply #39 on:** July 30, 2009, 14:08:30 PM »

Oh Pepper is simply gorgeous

Well done Janey

Bazsmum · « **Reply #38 on:** July 30, 2009, 13:31:06 PM »

Only 2 more sleeps to go Janey!

I too have took a cat on not knowing what she looked like....As long as its a cat thats all that matters...each have their own little personalities which makes them look different again once you get to know them!

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #37 on:** July 30, 2009, 08:33:23 AM »

Exactly the way I feel, I have agreed to a couple without seeing them, but then I am used to fosteirng and taking on whatever is needed. I remember when my friend took in a foster for us, she was asking loads of questions on age, sex, colour, and I had to ring the lady loads of times, as I just agree and see what turns up!!
