Glad to hear that Polly is fit and well, she's far from 'old' but I know that one does start to worry more as they get into their teens

Gooooooooooooooo Polly, some pics needed here

Its great to hear shes doing well

Haven't come across the term absorbing before Sheila

I googled it and it seems this is not unusual for her age or painful in any way so am glad all OK with the beautiful black Polly gal

Polly had her MOT today, clean bill of health.

Some of her teeth are resorbing, but the vet says she's in great condition for her 13 years. She's snuggled up close tonight.

Counting my blessings.

Its great to hear she is still a character

if her ears were burning its because we were thinking & talking about her. She always was one of my faves (not that i had favourites

)

Catching up with you, Lau. Polly has discovered she can smack down the cat flap when Kuki is trying to get in

not that she has anything against Kuki per sey, just Kuki is the only one smaller than Polly.

It's her 2nd anniversary of coming to me tomorrow, so just thought I'd pop by and say Hi from our gorgeous, funny, loveable little grumpuss. She's doing great and we hope you are too.

She's as beautiful as ever! Such a happy kitty with you

Polly really landed on her Paws

sheilarose · « **Reply #61 on:** December 26, 2012, 12:07:00 PM »

Squeaking out a loving "Hi" to my other Meowmi, Lau.

Hope you're having a lovely Christmas, as you can see I am

Polly

I've just been looking at the photos you posted of her. I think she was always meant to be with you, we were just here to help her! We often. Talk about her, as we do most of the others, and I am over the moon to see and hear how happy she is. Give her a fuss from us!

sheilarose · « **Reply #59 on:** November 10, 2012, 18:58:02 PM »

Lau, I thought you'd be happy to have an update, and be pleased to know that Polly is now Mistress of All She Surveys and has adopted my left shoulder as her favourite spot.

She has also taken to herding the boys (including my OH) in at night. OH was stalked all the way to the off licence last week.

Your diagnosis of "Mother Hen" was spot on

Thank you for letting her come to me, she's a lovely girl and the most affectionate cat in our busy household.

Hope things are good with you and that your health is improving.

Beautiful

Polly has very little left to learn in life! Gorgeous girl. X

shes quite the beauty queen

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #55 on:** May 06, 2012, 16:15:47 PM »

Seconded

Polly has settled in so well and you have a lovely garden for her.

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #54 on:** May 06, 2012, 12:59:10 PM »

What a beautiful pic Sheila

She's such a doll

sheilarose · « **Reply #53 on:** May 06, 2012, 12:32:56 PM »

Polly decided she likes the water feature, as a viewing platform

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #52 on:** April 21, 2012, 12:58:00 PM »

So pleased that its worked so well and girl cats just seem to me to be so different to boy cats

sheilarose · « **Reply #51 on:** April 21, 2012, 12:45:10 PM »

In a way I wish it was Tufty she's cottoned on to, but it's Theo.

He's traditionally the boss in this house but of late his leadership has been severely challenged by Sly da sly, who has been on steroids recently so currently his bullying is around 1000% its usual levels.

Polly seems to have got a grip on the politics here and by pairing up with Theo she's also taken a lot of the argument out of the younger boys (Tuffs and Sly). Theo now sleeps and eats in the house (he's beeen a garden cat for a couple of years) and is friendly and loving towards us too

The knock on effect is that Sly is effectively outnumbered, so is stepping back rather than forward when Polly is present. Therefore Tufty gets an easier ride, too

She's tiny but by God she's effective! A master stroke if I say so meself

funkiechicken · « **Reply #50 on:** April 21, 2012, 03:07:21 AM »

what a beautiful photo!! she certainly is doing very well and i'm so pleased.....to top it all Tuffs has a new love

and she now has him to look after her

........if he gets off the cushions and whatever else he is "loving" at the minute

Such a handsome lad!! handsome but frisky

tiff · « **Reply #49 on:** April 16, 2012, 19:28:12 PM »

She really does look settled bless her

sheilarose · « **Reply #48 on:** April 16, 2012, 19:21:20 PM »

Aww shucks, thanks everyone

If I'd realised this photo of Polly would turn out so well I'd have taken the washing in!

Jo, the dwarf trachycarpus has been with me at three houses now, its the same age as Beau (13) and was a tiny thing in a pot when it first arrived. Now I have to prune it because it insists on spawning babies from its base every year and is just the happiest, healthiest palm tree I've ever known, and is showing no signs of keeping its "dwarf" status at well over 6 feet high!

I aimed at "Beer Garden" as a theme - do you think I've got it?

(PS you can't see the large Sauvignan in my left hand)

Your garden looks fab!

sheilarose · « **Reply #42 on:** April 07, 2012, 21:17:42 PM »

She taps me on the head aswell

She's a fridge cat too - our furbs are always rewarded with cold chicken from the fridge and they latch on to the fridge door opening...she clocked this within three days and now no-one goes near the fridge without a wee black shadow

Lau, Polly's doing just fine. I hope this brings you some comfort

lau200 · « **Reply #41 on:** April 07, 2012, 21:08:29 PM »

ah yes i remember the tapping very well

thekittensmittens · « **Reply #40 on:** April 07, 2012, 00:15:38 AM »

it just shows why we should all consider oldies

its amazing how well shes doing ! Im glad to say pacey is very much at home however sadly he and mo got on very well but that alliance wasnt to be

pacey is now knicknamed prince harry by oh

polly is a doll and im so pleased its all worked out

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #39 on:** April 06, 2012, 23:21:43 PM »

Well done Theo and a great choice

Theo is lovely

sheilarose · « **Reply #38 on:** April 06, 2012, 20:23:49 PM »

She's lying on the back of the couch behind me and occasionally I feel a tap on my shoulder

She's so comfortable here and has paired up with Theo, our Tottenham bruiser, who is simply besotted with her (he's also three times her size) so she'll be just fine (Theo fiercely protects "his" women

)

Here's our hero, Theo, Polly's new boyfriend...

funkiechicken · « **Reply #37 on:** April 06, 2012, 02:43:16 AM »

such a great feeling when they just slot right in

i'm so pleased for you and Polly, fantastic for you all

sheilarose · « **Reply #36 on:** April 03, 2012, 07:01:09 AM »

I know

She's totally in charge in her quiet little way. Funny, it's like she's always been here now...

funkiechicken · « **Reply #35 on:** April 03, 2012, 04:05:22 AM »

*cough* *cough*

I turn my back for what? 5 minutes? and you have sneaked another gorgeous lady into your house Sheila!

What a beauty and I can see she has definitely made a grand entrance, took her place on the stage and is a leading lady!!

How well and quickly she has settled

I'm so pleased for you (and OH who clearly has a new comrad)

and I echo what others have said to Lau - it must have been heartwrenching to let them go but such a great comfort to know your babies have gone to such good homes and that they are settled and happy

and on here you get to see updates like these
