I am sure he is related to my Tosker, who also was rescued in Pembrokeshire, and who is a really little lad - with a very big heart

There's something very special about grey cats  :Luv2: ;)

He looks so much bigger there than he is in real life cos he is tiny and gorgeous  ;D

Yes I was shocked how small he was too. I had an image of a big chunky BSH and he can't be more than 4kg max.
Totally munchably gorgeous though  :Luv2:

Any further news on this little fellow?  Did his possible rehoming work out OK?  I do hope he's now safe and happy.

I might have to make a cat-napping trip, he's just so gorgeous :Luv2: Gray/blue cats never come up and they are my favourites, sigh.  Give me a couple of years and I'd definitely have him!

Have rescues been contacted? priority cases will come first so if this is urgent and it's pointed out to the rescue they should be able to help sooner than later.

Sorry Gill, not very up on Wales - went there with my parents when I was younger (Conwy) but other than that am not very aware!

When my daughter received the photo (for onward transmission to make it into an e-mail attachment) the sender phoned to check it had been received OK.  My daughter asked in which part of Wales the cat was living at the moment and the answer was Pembrokeshire!  Hope the more specific location helps find someone who can take him in.

every home should have a grey male cat  :ahh:

I've got two, and would happily have a third if a certain large ginger lady hadn't taken exception to grey male no.2

I have to say, though, that as Wales is a country and not an area, a more specific location might help to find a home for this lad

It is fairly urgent. The rescue lady (Dog related predominantly) contacted me because she was hoping I had space for a little one. I think spatially we could manage but I'm not entirely sure the current trio would adapt to another cat.

British Blue and a Blue BSH should be the same thing AFAIK. I think the breed was known as a British Blue because blue was the most common colour but now there so so many different colours. That's just what I could fathom out when I did my research after adopting Bourneville (who is chocolate and 3/4 BSH).

I thought this boy had the look of BSH to him too...not just the colour but fur texture and face shape too

Yeah, I thought a British blue was just a blue BSH? I'll never get my head round this pedigree stuff!

I said that but am informed he's likely to be a British Blue cross. (Not sure what the difference is.....)

Val, he's been with other cats. Could you PM me a mobile number? Laura can then send the photo directly to you. (I have no way of getting a picture off a mobile.)

Do you have any info on whether he is used to/good with other cats?  Has he been kept in a cattery for breeding or is he used to living in a home? Is he an inside/outside cat (using a catflap) or has he always lived indoors?  Short or long-haired?  Any chance of a picture?  Sorry to start off with so many questions but I have someone just possibly in mind to help and I know they'll ask me....!
 :thanks:

Been contacted by a Facebook friend who needs to find somewhere for this boy. Basically he's been used for breeding and she's managed to get the OK to go and take him.

The rescuer in question would pay for him to be neutered, wormed and flea'd. She said to her knowledge he's a healthy cat and hasn't had any real issues. (She also told me he's gorgeous....)

Placed in urgent due to the nature of the situation. Sorry if it's felt it isn't!
