Title: Sponsor a Cat or Kitten Vouchers for the auction (Lesleys Rescue)
Post by: Gill (sneakiefeline) on November 30, 2007, 21:16:32 PM
Another thread for you  :evillaugh: :evillaugh:

Lesley has a number of permanent residents who cannot be homed for various reasons so I thought we could have vouchers to sponsor these.

They will be £1, £2 or £5 each  ;D

MOeny should be paid at the end of the auction just like payment for the other items  :wow:

Ok these are the babes that live at Lesleys and that can be sponsored  :wow:

Baz  6yrs old with pins in his back legs like his name sake Barry Sheane

Forest Gump Hillbilly Munchkin  Has short front leags and normal back, with a narrow pelvis which means he needs special food and katalax all the time. He also has a deformited  the jaw and is on daily medication for stiffness of joints and to keep him "soft".

George  Suffers with Tetralogy of Fallot and may not make it much longer, but we are doing everything we can do make him comfortable, so needs a lot of pampering

Aerial  A beautiful black, suffered with severe cat flu as a kitten, almost died, and is partially sighted in one eye.

DD     Came with Aerial and couldn't beare to be separated from her

Felix    Came with his mum and brothers and sisters but is slightly "simple" - couldn't be re-homed as he just wanders out of open doors, follows anyone and would end up miles from home if not watched                                     

Gin and Tonic Identical black twin ferals, who have never really tamed down, live behind the sofa and when people come to visit they do not actually know they exist.  Even I can't tell them apart.

HRH Olivia  A blue-eyed babe who fell on hard times

Tarka  The runny bum kitten who needs special food for the forseeable future

Jerry Maquire   Had a cancer of the mouth as a kitten

Dorothy   Came with Jerry Maquire, was bought from a farm as a kitten but was actually approx six months old and extremely feral.  Has taken her one year to be able to be touched.

Eric and Ernie   Both were re-homed but found it very traumatic so had to return

Elvis  Born with his back legs on backwards, after alot of physio, they turned around but he cannot jump like normal cats and does get caught up trees etc.

Wallace    Got overlooked as a kitten, finally got chosen but his re-homing fell through so hubby said he could stay.  Recently suffered from a little snuffles but is getting better now.

Thank you on their behalf  ;D

Right, I've finally managed how to re-size photos on my new laptop so here are the babes in all their glory.  It will obviously take a few postings, so bear with me.

Firstly Baz and Elvis  (Baz is the black and white and Elvis the little black fluff)

and Forest and George (Forest is Black and white, George my tabby babe)

Aerial

DD

Here are some more

Felix (he is in the tree, honest)

Now Gin and Tonic are probably in the second picture somewhere, but you will probably see as much as I do of them most of the time,  They are two black beauties who are IDENTICAL and very elusive.

Olivia

Tarka

Hi Lesley,

Well, I am typing this through tears, having read the sad story of how you started.  Poor, sweet little Georgie.  How tragic and disgraceful that such a vulnerable little creature should be so mistreated and left to die.

Like so many others on here, I salute you for all the wonderful work you do.  I know how grim and depressing it must be when you lose the little loves but you still put yourself through it every day.  Amazing and magnificent.

I am very taken with Olivia's beauty but my heart has been lost to George and Jerry Maguire....and all the others as well if truth be known........so I am going to pledge £50 for G and J.

Give them both a cuddle from their Auntie Roz tonight and I shall remember them and all the others in my prayers.

God bless

Lots of love

Roz

The Horde (also known as Lirael, Smoke, Penguin, Harley & Quinn - my hand hurt after signing christmas cards!) have decided instead of lots of presents that they will put their money toward some other cats that need it more than they do (they however insist that all the boxes we get from here till the New Year are officially theirs), so we’ll be sponsoring:-

Tarka & Aerial

£40.

Ok...gotta go out now so won't be back for the end of the auction but if anyone can work out how many cats there are behind that settee, I'll give a further two pounds for each of them.  :evillaugh:

Can one of the auctioneers pm me with the total please?

Doesn't matter whether I'm duplicating G and J who I have already sponsored.

Lots of love
