Helen, I was waiting for you to see this thread as I you seemed as excited as me yesterday!

I hope he is neutered too as otherwise he is potential daddy to alot of kittens!!  :-[

Gerti had been there nearly 2 months when we got her but she was with her kittens so maybe they didnt want to seperate her or cause her more stress?

Ellie, thats exciting :) I love the feeling of being on the hunt for another addition to the family (I loved going through the catchat listings when we were looking for Cat number 2, which ended up being Gerti!)

I'm going to call Fiona again now actually.. she will be sick of me!!! haha

Ooh, I'm really excited for you!  I know that cats remember people after time apart, so hopefully Doc and Gerti will remember each other if you do decide to give him a home  ;D

How long had Gerti been with the fosterer when you got her?  It might have been that she hadn't been there long so had not been booked in to be spayed yet.  I'd hope that Doc is neutered as if he's not and he's been going out you will be responsible for all the CSA claims that come flooding in in a few years time  :evillaugh:

YAAAAAAAAAY I am sooooooo excited now  :rofl: :rofl:

I would like to think he has been neutered and would be very shocked if he wasn't  :Crazy:

I'm getting broody for a third cat now  :evillaugh: hubby has said that if we get a foster that has to be a indoor cat AND it got on with Mupps and Rascal we could  :wow:

Me, Mupps and Rascal have everything crossed for Sunday  :hug: :hug:

Thanks Ellie! :hug:

I text my bf and he replied saying he would love us to see Doc on Sunday  ;D

He asked me if he was neutered and thats the one thing I forgot to ask! Surely he would be by now? I don't think he was when we got Gerti as she had not been spayed and was pregnant when we took her to vets  :(

Excited though!
I have written "cat basket" on my list of things to take away with us at the weekend just in case  :ahh:

Hi Dawn

Glad you got through and I'm sure things will be fine  ;)

I think you will know as soon as you meet Doc wether he will be right for you and family. I don't know if he will remember Gerti or not but the fact he gets on with other cats is a bonus  ;D

I am sending you lots of  :hug: and I am excited for you  :evillaugh:

I spoke to Fiona, she did get my email yesterday and said that Doc does go outdoors but not very often and she does not think he would be fussed either way and so could possibly be an indoor cat  ;D

She said that when Gerti left he got a bit funny with the other cats but he has settled down alot now - she said she is not sure if he would remember her though, which made me feel a bit sad :(

We can go visit him Sunday evening though and see how we feel about adoption. We are in Coventry at the weekend anyway so it makes sense.

Not sure whether to be excited or not!

What times your break?!  Don't feel like your hassling her 'cos your not, before CC and now Purrs I hardly ever used to check my emails, now that my computer is on a lot more than it used to be I check them much more regularly, seeing as she's not a Purrs addict she probably hasn't even seen your mail yet!

Keep us posted  ;D

Hi Ellie  ;D

I got Fiona's email off Angie yesterday - I have her number off Gerti's adoption form too, I just need to wait for my work break to call today!

I just felt a bit of a hassler yesterday and then couldnt call last night as it was too late when I got in, so todays the day!

Hi Dawn

As you know I foster for them but I don't have Fiona's number. Maybe Angie can help, I know she is really busy at work but I'm sure she wouldn't mind if it means Doc might get a wonderful forever home  ;)

I am still waiting for a foster to come in as I can only take one cat.

Let us know how you get on  :ok:

I have emailed the two fosterers (couple) email addresses twice (the second time to give them my personal email for after 4pm)

so I now feel like I am hassling them!!! I don't know if I should call?

Especially as a silly woman I had to call for work this morning shouted at me on the phone (horrid horrid woman! she didnt even know me!)  :(

I didnt really think of that  :Crazy:

Funnily enough I just remembered I have Gerti's adoption certificate in my diary, with number and fiona's email on (it was her husband I emailed before!)

I am just off my lunch and can't really make phone calls (unless I sneak off somewhere and use mobile.. which is currently charging  :innocent: lol) I have copied the email to Fiona and if I dont get a reply before 4pm I will ring as soon as I get home!

I am excited too though, I keep looking at his little picture!!  ;D I will be saddened if he is a "must go outdoors" cat :( I think that is another reason I haven't rang.. I don't want my hopes shattered over the phone!

Ah, oops! Changed the link on my post now too :)

They sound as if they have the same temprament from the description so I thought that they might get on. Gerti is a verrry laid back and caring kind of cat  ;D she tries to be "mum" to cheese alot which cheese mostly tolerates  :rofl:

I thought that too - I would hope that they would be really excited to be reunited! they would recognise each other from smell wouldnt they?

Desley - I am not sure if he would go for any others, I have just about managed to convince him on the grounds that Doc is pretty much already family  :rofl: we'll see though  ;D

Ooh, how exciting!  Did Gerti and Doc get on well when they lived together? Tiggy was never really overly fussed by her brother so just because they're related doesn't necessarily mean they will get on.

If they did get on and you think that Cheese will take to him then I say go for it!  Can you imagine how Doc will feel if he gets taken to a lovely new forever home and finds his sister there too - sorry I'm getting carried away!

BTW, I couldn't view that pic it said 'not authorised'  He's the 3rd one down on ths link for other people to see  ;D  http://www.ccg.triadian.streamlinetrial.co.uk/album_cat.php?cat_id=3

Potential 3rd Cat!! (picture!)
« Reply #1 on: February 08, 2007, 07:54:06 AM »
Ever since we got Gerti I felt guilty that we left her brother behind in the foster house. I have been on at my bf about it for a while and he said he really wants him too but wanted to make sure Gerti and Cheese got on well first (which they do!)

Doc is Gerti's brother:
http://www.ccg.triadian.streamlinetrial.co.uk/album_comment.php?pic_id=92&sid=7e20dbd78e4bd52f5bf702fbef35439a

He is currently being fostered by Fiona for Coventry Cat Group - the only problem is he would have to be an indoor cat and I am not sure if he currently goes outside or not (Gerti didnt) My bf says if he is an indoor cat he MIGHT just let me get him. We are in Coventry on Sunday so I am hoping hoping hoping!

Just had to post as I am v excited about potential 3rd kitty :)
(Family are going to think I am crazy!!!)

I am going to send the fosterer an email now - fingers crossed please!!!!  ;D
