Seriously, all the very best with catty and I do hope s/he likes the new home.  Anyway, got to be better than the cattery.    Report

He'll know you ...... but will pretend he doesn't until you have fussed over him & spoilt him rotten.  Cats are masters of emotionally blackmail & will only stop the mental torture once he feels you have suffered enough (& he's had his fill of tasty morsels of salmon, chicken, ham etc.....) - at least that's what ours do!! Many years ago, cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never forgotten this.    Report

Our other one, Timmy, was 18 and his death was the hardest of all in many ways as he was only ill for a few days and he was also my first ever pet.    Report

As you say, it's such a horrible time when they are ill and I don't care how old they live to, it's never ever old enough.    Report

He's fit and well except for a bit of dandruffy coat, think he needs some oily fish to restore his omegas to a proper level, he probably hasn't been getting all his vitamins in the cattery.  No mice either...... Seems happy enough and beginning to settle ok.    Report
