Shelly the tortoiseshell is going home

Shelly is a lovely cat and very undemanding, she’s going home tomorrow and it was a pleasure to have her.

Chloe and Jenna, two other tortoiseshells, went home very happy to see their respective parents.

Andi and Marian ( two relatives on a EU trip) posted this photo of a Greek cat (at Hydra) making the most of tourism.

ZaZa our new kitten is coming home tomorrow

When shy cats like Wilson stay at the cattery

Wilson and Henry have been here a few days.  In the beginning we couldn’t even get close to Wilson without him worrying, Henry although more confident was cautious as well. We started by talking to them and patting but not too much not to tire them. We swept the room and mopped instead of vacuming to prevent Wilson from getting stressed. Slowly but surely they improved.

A few days have gone by and now both of  them are brave enough to walk inside the cattery and not worry about the other pusses looking at them from their rooms. Wilson is no longer so scared of the vacuum cleaner and Henry is able to be himself and gets a lot of pats.

They are both beautiful cats and we’re enjoying their company.

Our new Oriental kitten Zaza today

ZaZa will be shown at the Ekka’s Cat Show on Saturday and will be finally moving with us on Monday 17/08. We can’t wait!

Rent-a-pet in Japan

Isn’t it sad that with the recession some Japanese people have to rent a pet by the hour?

Muzzy a lovely cat having a good time but very hard to photograph, his mum’s already enquired about his well being.

Milo the Abyssinian

Yesterday we welcomed Milo, a young Abyssinian that lives alone with mum. Very nervous to begin with – as these cats normally are – we’ll make sure that he calms down and gets more confident to come out for walks inside the cattery and games of football in the corridor.

Tortoiseshells or Calico Cats

Meet Jenna a young tortoiseshell that belongs to the small exceptional subgroup of good natured cats. These cats are usually grumpy and Vets are scared of them.

We talk from experience, our own tortie Annie – that lived up to 22 and went to heaven last year – was a power to be reckoned with and only mellowed after 17. Very few teeth left helped with the ease of handling but she would still bite, albeit without hurting too much.

She was the dominant cat and made sure Tessie and Brooky , our other two cats,  followed her rules.

Here she is in better days.

Cats always land on their feet

Jenna is happy again, playing and wanting cuddles, always a source of joy.

Sascha went home, a lovely cat see her here with Bryce.

Spooky and Roscoe lovely British Shorthairs
