I'm moving this thread to the sorted section now.

I honestly can't imagine what you are going through. Parting with the 3 of them must be agonising. At least you know they are going to lovely homes, but still, such a hard thing to do

A few days ago I couldn't ever imagine having another cat after my three go, but I am sure when Lennon is a bit older and his allergy and eczema settle that I could offer a lovely home to a few rescue cats in need of a good home maybe a couple of pensioners! I feel really guilty and I am sure that they would never compare to D, S & M but there are always needy cats looking for a loving home. Either that or as soon as the kids leave home, (and take their allergies with them!

) I can become a crazy cat lady!

This is all keeping me sane not thinking about tomorrow morning when there is no Mojo to greet me at the bedroom door.

Just a little side note on a similar situation from another forum I am a member on, a lady there gave up her cat when her daughter was a baby due to her being allergic to the kitty. Her daughter is now 6 years old and no longer allergic... so you never know, it could just be a few years down the line until you are able to open your heart and home to another furbabe needing you.

for you and your adorable little lad

west0405 · « **Reply #47 on:** April 02, 2009, 14:31:46 PM »

Well had an awful night last night. Lennon woke up screaming and when I rushed in there and turned the light on, his face was covered in blood! He had scratched his chin and cheeks so much he made it bleed, then for added "scare Mummy" affect rubbed it all over his face, hair, pyjamas and bed! It just seem to get really bad and I couldn't figure out why. Until I changed his sheets and found a rather suspicious patch of Mojo fur...... I feel awful as I had left his bedroom door open in the day and how tempting is a nice warm cot to a kitty?

I suppose last night just cemented the reason why this is happening. Naughty little Mojo

It isn't making it any easier though and this time next week we are going to have such a lifeless home, we are going to be part of that strange group of people who dont have pets!!!!!! How bizarre. I think next week will be especially hard with the long Easter weekend at home, and oh gosh what a strange summer we will have, with no cats lounging in the sun and joining us for the BBQs, or at least waiting for a sausage!

Well thats broke my no tears roll that I was on since oh... yesterday!

Janeyk · « **Reply #46 on:** April 02, 2009, 07:25:37 AM »

awww

sorry about your son (I suffer with ezcema too so can understand) and your kitties, I'm sure your lovely kitties will get lovely homes x

Gillian Harvey · « **Reply #45 on:** April 02, 2009, 00:13:49 AM »

So glad to hear Debsy is having Mojo, can't wait to hear about Dylan and Smudge. Sorry though Leigh, this must be so hard for you

No the cats don't cause his either but they seem to make it worse, the same with dogs too. When he is away from our house he stops itching completely and the redness seems to fade They have tried other things too as they thought it could also be dairy, so he is on a no dairy diet as well as monthly steroid creams and antihistamines. When I am pregnant I strangely seem to develop a sensitivity to the cats too, and the itch drives me crazy, but i always kept it quiet and never told the doctor! We all know they aren't alwys the most sympathetic!

Stress brings mine out - but i doubt a little prince like him will be getting stressed at his tender age - it is hard to find out what causes it & I do feel for him - I hope he grows out of it - or something really simple is causing it - soothing itch free hugs to your little man xxx

What a little cutie (your son, not Mojo ), it does look very sore - as Trigger says you have to put your son's health first, no question about it. Mojo will have a fantastic life in his new home

Thanks, he is 9 months old now and his name is Lennon James

...He will be my only baby from Monday.

Or well at least until October

They do have a home lined up, just checking etc but I think they are going to very spoiled too
......And its another Purrs member!!!???????

That's great news, I can't believe whoever it is has kept it quiet!

I know bless her, I think she wants to keep it quiet until she defiantly knows, just waiting for a vets reference and to hear back from Angie.
But Dylan and Smudge will love their new home too.

Poor little fella - I know how he is feeling as I even now suffer with the dreaded eczema - though thankfully the cats dont cause it.

Kay and Penny · « **Reply #38 on:** April 01, 2009, 14:05:29 PM »

it must be hard for you, but even the most dedicated cat lover wouldn't expect you to put your cats before your son's health

any news on homes for Dylan and Smudge?

west0405 · « **Reply #36 on:** April 01, 2009, 13:58:42 PM »

Well its taken me a few days to pull myself together about this. I fill up as soon as I come onto this thread. I know I am doing the right thing but I still feel awful. We knew what we were getting ourselves into and that this was going to happen one day, no matter how much we put it off. I know that he is going to the most wonderful family and is going to be so happy, but I am dreading Monday and Sunday too. I cant even look at him now which is awful. I cant feel guilty as I know he will be happy I'm just feeling sorry for myself. I have to remember why I am doing this and that the feeling wont last forever. I will look forward to the updates and photos of how her is getting on and causing chaos with his new family. It will take a long time to get used to a Mojo free household!

Incidentally my sons skin took a turn for the worse and isn't looking too nice, on his face and back are the worst places as he learning to crawl and now likes to roll all over our carpets! So I have a reminder everyday when I see his poorly skin why we are having to do this. It must be horrible having such painful skin but wanting to itch it still, to the point of bleeding now.

Anyway that is the end to my very depressing and a little graphic post! Woo hoo!

Leigh x

Added a photo but it doesn't look to bad there as he is back onto his steroid creams so it is healing well now. Excuse the shot, its really not his best angle!

I know Leigh will miss him like crazy but he's well and truly landed on his feet with you Looking forward to hearing all about him when he arrives and settles in - any idea when that will be?

It's likely to be Monday as I am on Easter hols as of Friday so will give us time to get him settled in and to have some bonding time. I feel so sad for Leigh as this must be the gardest thing in the whole world but feel so priviledged that she's trusting us with her baby boy. Purrs is going to be covered with updates and piccies of Mojo!

Congrats on your new baby, another Purrs placement and now you will be up to 4

Its a good thing your hubbie is like mine and feline inclined still tell him only another 39 and you will have the same number as the clan

Hope you don't mind Leigh but I am far too excited so am posting...

OH and I have applied to adopt Mojo and Leigh and Angie have kindly said yes! He is going to be the new addition to the family and I just can't wait!

Mojo! I can't believe I can be so fond of a cat I have never actually met but he has completely stolen my heart... so much so that I burst into tears when I read the e mail confirming we could have him! That was closely followed by me jumping round the house like a lunatic!

I shall keep you posted once we have sorted arrangements.

Thanks so much Leigh for entrusting me with your baby.

bonnielass · « **Reply #25 on:** March 30, 2009, 19:01:06 PM »

I will keep my fingers crossed for you and send lots of positive vibes that you both become his new slaves

Debsymiller (Rufus' mum) · « **Reply #24 on:** March 30, 2009, 18:57:44 PM »

I can't really say at the moment as his adoption needs to go through the rescue he came from. OH and I would LOVE to give him a home and I think everyone who has read this thread had a feeling that would be the case! I really do hope it all works out as it was love at first sight but what will be, will be. I am trying not to get my hopes up and I am sure you will all be kept up to date once I know what's gonna happen either way.

Something tells me Mojo's bags are packed and he's not too sad about that!!! Who's had a word with him?
