Thanks, he's pottering around out there but has stopped short of coming inside so I've put some bikkies out for him.

He was driving us all crazy, scratching and chirrupping to be let outside, so I've unlocked the catflap and off he went.
He's a local boy, well at least he knows his way around here, so he will be able to find his way back no problem, it's up to him now if he chooses to stay.

Catflap is still on all ways open mode, so it won't click and scare him away.

Fingers crossed now.  :crossed:

He's a night owl, like you Gill, and you Pav.  ;)

Hoping to keep him trapped but safe until his anaesthetic wears off.  :-:

Ivan woke up.


He's fiddling with his nuts and wants out again. He's a very nice cat, he loves Aldi stick treats and rolls over for chin rubs. I'm just so aware how keen his escapology skills are.


Watch this space.  :shify:

I'm so glad Ivan is back home safe and after his op too.  I bet he will want extra special food off his servants today and knowing most cats will try to 'con' as many treats out of you as possible. :naughty:

Here he is!

The vets have featured him today, and if you scroll down, Alvin was on there a couple of weeks ago.

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Walthamstow-Vets/358051467640257?fref=ts

He had a protest wee at the vets, while he was sitting down! So his fur is soaking underneath. Apparently this is a common thing. He behaved nicely otherwise and they're happy that his cuts and sweelings are healing nicely.

Hoping to keep him in tonight then see if he's fit to go wandering tomorrow afternoon. I'm working a shift tomorrow from home, great timing for once.  ;)

So pleased you got him back, and perfect timing too! Glad the op went well and fingers crossed the smell will die down sooner rather than later  :sick:

Alvin started the "names with a V in" trend, then came Ivan and Vidal. Only Ivan remains so his name is still subject to change should he decide to move in with us permanently.

In light of recent breaking news... how about 'Dickie'  :naughty:

Once he's got the anaesthetic out of his system I'll be letting him go (with collar, obviously for a couple of weeks) and see if he still thinks his slaves here are up the the task.

Arty neighbour did spot him in her house yesterday (identified by his tell-tale white collar) so I think she's decided to order a sureflap to keep him, and others who have been in there marking their presence, out. It may push him in here with us a little quicker if he has limited food options with the neighbours.

hopefully the message will get out now 'don't go in there, mate - they'll have your nuts off' - and you will not have to deal with any more of Ivan's extended family

still trying to think where Ivan came from -  Ivan the Terrible Stink?

Well done you and yes the smell can be a tad over powering but so worth the effort and once they know where the food is coming from even big macho boys come home  ;D


He was sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor with that "it's soooooo unfair" shrug thing going on.  :doh:


Let hope getting him in a box for Chop will be less fraught sending good luck vibes for all concerned


No bother, he was good as gold all the way to the vet too. Neil's doing his op and isn't concerned that he might have managed a few mouthfuls before 3am as he won't operate until after lunch anyway.

Vibes requested today, please, for Ivan's big midsummer's day.

Oh never have I welcomed a bad smell quite like this before.  :sick: ;D

I hope Ivan is back in with you Sheila :hug: He is booked for tomorrow isnt he?

Yes, I've called my vet telling them he's shot off, they've left the appointment open in case he does come in tonight but are ready if not.  :shify:

OH got home at 3pm and has been playing the feed-me-trap-me game ever since.   Ivan, seemingly, has nowhere else to go so hoping we can get him in.

We just had a bit of an embarrassing episode - arty neighbour knocked to say she could hear squealing from our garden and was missing one cat   :-[ Yup there was Spike. Duly released under the disapproving look from said Arty neighbour. She also mentioned her house has been pished in last night - and "clearly" it was my lately released Ivan who is doing this (she hasn't yet ordered her sureflap !) so I have no defence  :-[


Need him back.  :-:

Afternoon from the Clan homestead wall to wall sunshine so after a 4am start to take PH to the airport to go back to Baku after a week at home and that's him now till October when he combines meetings in London hopefully with removal of my Gall bladder but I hope to go for a week in August for my birthday and some R & R from the kids :rofl:

Sheila have faith I have one failure in 15 years of trapping big Red here he has now moved in to my neighbours barn and seems happy enough as there are no girl cats around, if there is no other food around they will go back in the trap - I have faith he knows where his food source is and running past you is not your fault when they are on a mission!!!

We have had a busy week with 10 cats at the vet on Saturday and Monday bought around the Chip and Chop for the Boris at 7 months he was a bit whiny on his return but is up trees today so no loss of service in his world, we also had Minmin Ragdoll and Cougar my first handrear in for dentals on Monday Minmin lost 1 tooth and Cougar lost 5 and it looks like he has bad arthritis in his back legs to but is enjoying the sunshine so not giving Metacam unless we have to and to round it off Sammy feral was rushed to the vets at 10pm on Monday he was very good for the vet till the thermometer got 5 injections and a night in isolation and seems fine now he is back in general population he threw up blood so daddy was in panic mode but all are now fine and OH could go back to work happily

Have to say that all is well here had Sky and Sunny Border Collies all clipped up and groomed and they are so much happier with less coat with the heat we are having and have had for the last month or so with only cool showers in the evenings and through the night

Hope all is well in your worlds off to walk the dogs and change over the washing as its all been dried outside so smells wonderful
