Aw Ron - he's a lovely golden oldie.  What a little darling.   :Luv2:  He does look a lot more content in that latest picture.  Not so confused.

he is looking a lot better now, he has still got a long way to go, he wonders around the garden when we are cleaning his tray and pen, and then he comes back to bed he even gave a little purr for the first time  :hug:

He may well have hyperthyroidism, which could affect his appetite like that.  bless him.

 the poor little lad is also stone deaf  :(, he had a little wander around the garden today but soon came back to his bed next to the radeater he wont come indoors as he freaks out when he see other cats, but loves his own little house at least he gets all the best food and he is so happy to us for helping him and loves a little stroke now and again but he is so thin and still a bit :scared:

Aaaaw, thats brought tears to my eyes :'( He looks so sorry for himself!

Fancy dumping the poor fella..... Maybe his appetite will calm down once he realises he is getting fed regularly?! How old do you think he is?

He may well have hyperthyroidism, which could affect his appetite like that.  bless him.

Aw, poor old thing, he would have died if he'd been left out any longer, the weather really has turned now (even down here in the south!). Have you given him a name?

Bless you Ron, if only there were more "mad" people around!
