Aw, he's gorgeous.  He looks a right old duffer, and I hadn't realised just how big he was either until you see him emerging from his box.   :Luv2:

I must admit I thought he probably had more trouble getting in his box than out of it :rofl: :rofl:  His facial markings are very similar to that of my Kit. :Luv2:

Wilfred is doing fine adn much more settled - well compared to what he was when he first came in!

Paul even managed to pet him yesterday and this morning - even when he was eating and he is venturing out of his box a little more now too.  :)

Aw, bless him.  He's clearly had a hard paper round so far - be nice to think he can relax a bit now, and not have to worry about food, and girls, and food, and girls and fighting for the food/girls.   :hug:

well our wilfred is home and not best impressed but has eaten and having a good ol cat nap!   thankfully the eau de tom will settle down over the next few days and he will start to calm down a tad.

Would appear he's not quite as old as we had thought and the vet has aged him between 5-8yrs - he just looks very rough!!  lol bless him :Luv2:

Also got his teeth checked over and he is apparently missing his 2 upper canines! 

Hopefullythough the next few days will see him settle down and we can let him know what it is to be loved again.

Well our Wilfred was most unimpressed this morning on his way to the v.e.t. for  neutering.

Bless him - but I just dont know how anyone can stand the smell of eau de tom!

Hopefully he won't be in too grumpy a mood when we get him back later!

I think his wavy ear makes him look vaguely piratical!  :evillaugh: ;)  :hug:

We used to call Jack "Cap'n Jack" after the release of Pirates of the Caribbean.....sorry, off topic. Just reminded me of His Handsomeness.

I think Wilfred is ace; he's got some serious tom cat look about him!
