It will be another month or two before he's ready for neutering.

Judging by the pics, I'd say he's pretty much ready now  ;)

 :Luv: :Luv:  He's such a happy little lad, isn't he?

I'm still puzzled as to how he came to be wandering around outside.  He looks far too well cared for to be have been a stray.  Perhaps someone got him as a kitten then got fed up when he scratched the sofa or something  >:(  Tom is a cutie too and looks delighted to have another kitten to play with.

Latest update on the little lad: 

Alfie Pumpkin went to the Vet on Tuesday, and had first innoculations and he'll be going back in 3 weeks for the final jab and will be microchipped then too. It will be another month or two before he's ready for neutering.

The 'youngsters' are still chasing and wrestling like idiots! They both enjoyed playing in my shopping bag (see attached pics)!

Who's the other cat lurking in the background?

That's Jimmy ... he's a real old soldier.  I think he's 15 or 16, a bit arthritic and totally NOT interested in playing!  :rofl:

wow he settled quickly!

Oh yeah Dawn ... These pics were taken litterally hours after arriving.  Aflie P is a very friendly little boy ... he was struggling to understanding why my lot didn't want to play all the time  :evillaugh:  He was over the moon when I opened the carrier at his new home and Tom wanted to play straight away.

I was worried we would be deprived of updates once little Pumpkin/Alfie went to his new home, I needn't have worried his new parents seem to be snap-happy which is all good  :naughty: He's certainly settled in just fine!  :Luv:

Have you taken the posters down now  :shify:

OMG Alfie Pumpkin has well and trully got his paws under the table.  I recieved a message (and pics) this morning and he is having a fab time in his new home.

Checkout the pics ... http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=61476&id=1587169418&l=12d579403a   (you don't need a facebook account to view this album).

His new best mate is called Tom not Lenny .... I got the names mixed up.  Lenny was Tom's brother and he got run over sadly :(

I just reread what I wrote... sorry, I came across as a bit dismissive. I didn't mean it like that.  :-[ :hug: :hug: I was just trying to take your mind off it. To tell the truth I'm a bit tired as it's been a busy week and suffering from foot in mouth disease again.  :evillaugh:

The newer fosterers I know (or fosterers that don't have cats that often) always worry a bit and are a bit sad when they go.  :innocent: My remedy is always to get the next one in.  ;)

LOL S'ok hun I didn't take any offence .. I knew what you meant.  Don't worry   :hug:

I'd love to foster more Julie but if they were here for more than two weeks then there is no way I'd be able to let them go!  ;)

I also know Zephyr would never forgive me if I brought more than 1 in .... he's obviuosly been sulking cuz today he spent nearly 2 hours sat on my lap ... this is a boy who NEVER sits on my lap.  He will sit next to me but never on me.  I think he was "reclaiming me" as his own today!  :evillaugh:

I missed the first 30/40 too. And some of the 'special' ones who almost didn't survive. But especially I miss the ones that didn't get to leave here to start new lives.  :'(

Pumpkin will be fine.  :) Er... sorry, Alfie will be fine.  :evillaugh:

Now you've got the hang of it, how's about more kitten fostering?  :shy:

Well ... he's gone!!  :(  Got to his new home at 9:30 ... I opened the carrier and  Lenny - the resident 11 month old, jet black mini panther  :Luv2 - appeared to check out what was going on.  Alfie came straight out of the carrier and rub noses with Lenny then trotted off intothe kitchen to have a look round.  2 mins later there was the thunder of little feet and Aflie came running into the lounge followed by Lenny. Quick lap round the room and then Lenny ran off followed by Alfie  :)  And that's how I left him running about playing chase with his new best mate.  There was no hissing, spitting, or raised paws so I looks like they are going to get on just fine.

Kath has promised to keep me up to date on him but I am very happy that the little man has found his forever home and got a big brother to show him the ropes  :Luv2:
