Yay!!!  :wow: :wow:  Good luck with the arm twisting Hippykitty - wish I lived near you, as I'd have taken you.   :)

I think JayJay is in great need, but agree that it may be better for you to have a younger cat so that hopefully (the Gods be willing) you can have many years of cuddling ahead of you. 

How exciting.  Will have to watch this space avidly.   :wow:

I rang Wythall, left a message on their machine, and was phoned back today. They said I was welcome to go to the sanctuary any day apart from tuesday, so I've started arm-twisting. Unfortunately, the cat-loving friend I have who has a car is nervous about driving after having had an accident a couple of months ago. But I think she'd enjoy going to see lots of puddies.

As to JayJay:  :pic: please! Though I'm unsure about such an elderly cat who I would be grieving for before long.

I was taken to a house last night where the owner had died last year and his family have cleared out the house but left his poor cat JayJay behind!

JayJay was named after the old boys grandchildren whose names both began with J, and it's the parents of these kids who have abandoned the poor cat.  :(

JayJay is a beautiful older boy, around 16 to 18 years and Very cuddly, I sat on the lawn for 30 minutes with him just loving up on my lap, and me a complete stranger! He has been fed by Elaine, the old mams neighbour, for the last year but she is moving soon and doesn't want JayJay to be left alone again.

He is described as very hungry and losing weight, if he were my cat I'd be getting him tested for HyperThyroidism, an easily managed condition, but one that will lead to his ultimate demise if left unchecked. I'm very drawn to this little guy myself but he lives less than 100 yards from me, so even if I adopt him as a feeder, he would stillbe yelling to get in at Elaine's each day.

JayJay is white and black with gorgeous eyeliner, very attractive markings and gets on well with Elaine's female cat, as he's an older boy he will need a home with calmer occupants.

If anyone can offer a home for JayJay in his final years, I will undertake to deliver him to you, and happen to have a north south run coming up next weekend 12th July.

I'm going round to see Elaine with my camera later, so will take some pics of JayJay and post them on Purrs.

Gill (sneakiefeline):
They are both gorgeous  ;D ;D

Hippykitty:
Thanks so much Sue for the lovely post and the suggestions.

Wythall isn't too far from me if I can persuade a friend with a car to take me there. Although Yoda is so cute, I'd be more interested in his mum as she might have a harder time finding a home. I like the fact that they've never been street cats but have come from a loving home in unfortunate circumstances, so will be fully socialised.

It would be tempting to take them both, but I think that might upset Cyd, Lucy and Vic too much.

I'll give them a call later, then have to twist an arm or two for a lift over there. I so miss having a cuddly cat. Polly and Samantha were the last affectionate pusscats I had, but old age took them over the bridge. Despite years of patience and trying, I've never won the trust of my ex-ferals.

 :thanks:
