This is smashing news. Am really pleased to hear he's settled in well and appears to be happy and enjoying his new life. Good on you, Mr Moggs!

I'm so pleased he's got a new home now and sounds like he's having fun

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #36 on:** May 27, 2007, 13:17:56 PM »

Yes, that sounds a good result for Mr Mogg

ccmacey · « **Reply #35 on:** May 27, 2007, 13:14:30 PM »

Thats great, so happy for him.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #34 on:** May 27, 2007, 12:56:58 PM »

Yeah he has gone to live on a farm.

This is what Carol posted on thehovel about him:

"Hi Carol

I got a phone call yesterday from Moggs family. He has settled really well, he is now free to go out and in his little bothy, and has obviously chosen to stay around. Mr D said he has found a few dead mice which he can only attribute to Mr Mogg. They are delighted with him as he's friendly enough to potter about with them but obviously takes his job seriously !!!!

So all in all, couldn't be better for him, and the relief from my cats is tangible-- a lot less stress for me too"

ccmacey · « **Reply #33 on:** May 27, 2007, 12:54:32 PM »

Yeahy so Mr Moggs now has a home? Is he a farm cat or something?

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #32 on:** May 27, 2007, 12:51:35 PM »

Heard back from Carol about Mr Moggs:

Hi FF,

Heard from Cath today to say Moggs is doing well, and doing his job. The family are delighted with him and he has settled in well.

regards
Carol

Cheers Sam - I really took to that little guy, and it'd be great to find out how he's getting on.

Mr Mogg has got a home!!

Quote

Good news.

At last ! Mr Mogg has a home.

Its a smallholding with ducks and sheep, they need a mouser and liked the look of Moggs

It is away along a single track road in the hills with miles of nothing
much but sheep. The couple are really nice, and although he has an allergy, he was petting and rubbing at Mogg, so Mogg was actually very relaxed and not frightened at all.

I think it will be moggy heaven. I took him there yesterday, and I was amazed at the feeling of total relief I felt.

Thanks to all who were looking out for Moggs

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #22 on:** May 03, 2007, 08:19:24 AM »

Still thinking about this handsome fellow. How's he doing, does anyone know?

Debbie · « **Reply #21 on:** April 22, 2007, 18:40:52 PM »

Any good news for this handsome fella yet?

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #20 on:** April 09, 2007, 21:11:49 PM »

Hi Liz,

Thanks for the reply ... I figured there was a good reason for you not being able to take him on. I'm sure his forever home is out there somewhere ... just need to find it

Liz · « **Reply #19 on:** April 09, 2007, 20:56:05 PM »

Sam

Unfortunately as much as we would love to help I know CP would not consider us as we are to far from Ayrshire and we have already been turned down by the CP in our area for fostering wether it was short or longterm due to our numbers. My ferals bar our escapee Rio who is still sitting on top of the trap and our current strays Tyson and Cooper not yet neutered but live in the garage outside and mix well with our lot - no fighting and our remaining dog.

My ferals all bar the above 3 live both as inside only and some are now so good they are indoor/outdoor and in every night. Same with the domestics and raggie as well. A bit of hiss or miss we live with as Bertie is blind and depends which way he enters the grit box lol sometimes headfirst and the rest is on the floor but at 21.5 he is allowed the odd mistake or in his mind who forgot to turn the grit box round.

I also have to watch bringing in adult cats as we have had issues with a couple who made Berts life miserable as they beat him up and also some of the youngsters are very terratorial inside and out so this can cause issues till we have peace talks.

If it had been sooner I wasn't working for 8 months but am now at work full time so couldn't be here to play referee when things weren't quite working out.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #18 on:** April 09, 2007, 17:36:11 PM »

This little lad is so lovely. Can't believe no-one out there can give him a home....

Millys Mum · « **Reply #17 on:** April 09, 2007, 16:36:46 PM »

I saw her post not long ago, her profile says she was logged on last night, stalker alert!

Maybe you should resend it hee hee

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #16 on:** April 09, 2007, 13:56:22 PM »

I sent the link to Liz but haven't heard from her ... or seen her on here for a while so not sure if she received it.

Millys Mum · « **Reply #15 on:** April 09, 2007, 12:57:34 PM »

Oh that was a good idea Sam.
He would probably choose to poop outside having lived as a stray.
Im full with my 6 and my dad wouldnt tolerate any accidents

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #14 on:** April 08, 2007, 21:33:12 PM »

I know it's so sad isn't it ... I thought he might fit in with Liz and her ferals but I don't think it's a goer unfortunately.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #13 on:** April 08, 2007, 21:26:04 PM »

I keep thinking about him. Our home would be totally unsuitable for him, but can't bear the thought he can't get someone who can give him that love and understanding he needs. He's a little darling!

kelly-joy · « **Reply #12 on:** April 08, 2007, 16:50:51 PM »

oh poor mr mog he looks so sweet bless him. I really hope someone wants to take him home soon.

Millys Mum · « **Reply #11 on:** April 08, 2007, 16:09:50 PM »

He reminds me of my Mr George, its so sad that in 3 years no one can overlook the odd bit of poo that can drop off, a change of diet to make him more solid would probably help.
An incontinent cat would be a lot more difficult to clean up after.
Its cats like him i would take when i manage to get my own home.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #10 on:** April 08, 2007, 12:41:54 PM »

Just bumping this up again - can't get this little feller out of my mind.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #9 on:** March 27, 2007, 07:12:18 AM »

He does, doesn't he Debbie? He looks like a real little character, bless him

Debbie · « **Reply #8 on:** March 26, 2007, 23:14:04 PM »

I wish Mr Mogg could find a new home soon, I feel so sad about his condition, he is such a handsome boy and sounds like a lovely cat

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #7 on:** March 25, 2007, 20:31:22 PM »

Mr Mogg is still looking ... poor baby

ccmacey · « **Reply #6 on:** March 25, 2007, 19:26:28 PM »

I seen Mr Moggs ad today, he has been in rescue for 3 years.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #5 on:** March 25, 2007, 16:42:52 PM »

Any news on Mr Mogg?

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #4 on:** March 23, 2007, 07:49:56 AM »

What a lovely boy! I hope he finds his forever home soon.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #3 on:** March 23, 2007, 07:33:48 AM »

What a fantastic little feller. Poor little soul - how could anyone not want to home him after reading his story. Like Gill, I wish I was in a position to help. He sounds - and looks - like a real darling. I think he's a Winston Churchill of cats - a sort of Elder Statesman kinda chap.

Good luck to Mr Mogg. I really hope he gets a home very soon with exactly the right environment for his needs. I'd love to keep up with his story, Sam.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #2 on:** March 22, 2007, 21:00:39 PM »

So sad he looks so gorgeous and would have him in my home but I got 4 and I live so far away.

Hope he gets an inside home he shouldnt have to live outside poor boy.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #1 on:** March 22, 2007, 19:21:19 PM »

I am cross posting this from the hovel as this poor boy really needs a home:

Mr Mogg has been through the wars and was in a very bad way when rescued, but is a real character as you can see. He is looking for a rural home and may need to live outside as he has done before. He has a slight paralasys at his bottom which leaves him occasionally incontinent.

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y109/brodiemax/26_Mr20Mogg2.png

He loves the dogs but unfortunately the other cats in the house still are not accepting him and its getting very stressful. He is registered with the CPL and can be found at
http://stewartry.cats.org.uk/index.asp?m=g...mp;id=3&p=0

Below is the latest email from Cath about Mr Mogg

Hi

I don't think the cats protection have stressed his bottom problem enough on their web site, I am really not expecting him to be homed in a house, I think he would be exceptionally lucky if some kind person just so happen to see his picture and feel sorry for him, also their summary of the cause of his problem is wrong, it was not the amputation that caused the nerve damage, he had obviosly been caught in a trap, it broke his tail and all the struggling to get free caused the nerve damage, As a result of this sometimes a little bit of pooh can be left at his bottom when he exits the litter tray, he his unaware, and it can fall off. He also has a broken canine, so I think he was swiped a kick before the trap was released. So he definately deserves a lot of love,

He is so good natured, which is why it is difficult to home him, because most people that want an outside cat
just want it to be there to catch mice, and don't want to be bothered giving it any attention. I think he would enjoy having somewhere to hide out during the day, get a bit of food and cuddles in the morning, and he
would like to go out at night to hunt.

I only ever saw him at night when it was dark, he is frightened of people until he hears a kind voice, then he will trust that person and go to them.

I have never known him to swipe. When I discovered his condition a year ago, he didn't put up any sort of fight at all, when I was putting him in a carrier. He had ringworm, didn't claw or bite when I was stuffing pills down his throat, he really is a lovely natured boy, which is why I am trying to be patient and find the right home for him.

I was trying to get a photo of Kimi cleaning him, he lies belly up and bares his throat, and Kimi works at him with her teeth ' cleaning ' him, but every time I pick up the camera she stops! They get on so well, I think he is sturdy enough to take anything Kimi throws at him ! She has always been a bit of a pest with the cats, but he is so tough, not only can he take it, but he seems to revel in it.

I will leave you to post his picture, as I am a computer dunce ( It's my daughter or husband that sends photos and links for me) I think CPL thought the one of him sitting in an unusual cat pose on the sofa would attract attention, he often sits like that, my son says he looks like he should have a glass of brandy in one paw and a cigar in the other !
fingers crossed
many thanks
