lets hope their stay in the rescue is short

I am glad to hear this.

What great news ... so pleased they are in a resuce at long last. Hopefully they won't have to wait long to find a forever home.

Thanks for the updates Jack and Ela.

Me too.

"Just to let you know that Mansfield Cat Rescue took in
the cats today and are looking to rehome them."

Hurrah!

The carer of these two cats has just emailed me to say they have been taken in by a cat rescue.

"Cats needing a home"

Quite right they are, but if she does not put them on waiting lists they won't find a home. I know for sure had she had rung the Derby shelter when I advised her to months ago they would have been taken in by now.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #49 on:** February 05, 2007, 16:02:01 PM »

I don't think they are are Tonks ... Tonks are quite small and delicate littel things. In my opinion they are Burmese's .... not that it really matters what breed they are. Surely if you are desparate to rehome they are simply "Cats needing a home"

She sounds like the type who ignores your advice and then finally ends up leaving them on the doorstep

I think you are quite right she seems to put obstacles in the way, ignore what I say yet she is desperate to 'get rid'

she has now said they are Tonkinese.

Is she trying to make them sound more attractive? I dont know much about oriental breeds but they dont look like a tonk to me

I just cannot believe it the carer of these cats has just rung me about these cats again. Months ago I advised her to ring the Derby shelter and put them on the list of cats waiting to come on. Because they had 100 on their list she didn't, had she done so they would have been in care many weeks ago. 100 on a waiting list is nothing to a shelter that has 200 cats at a time and get people going round every day.

I asked her to also put them on a breed rescue but she didn't want to as she said they are too far. If it means a good home to me distance should not be an issue especially as you are desperate to rehome.

I have offered to put pics of the cats on my site, she has now said they are Tonkinese.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #45 on:** January 30, 2007, 18:36:10 PM »

Come on folks surely someone can help these poor old ladies ..... I wish I was ina position to offer them a home but unfortuantely 3 really is my limit.

JackSpratt · « **Reply #44 on:** January 25, 2007, 19:28:27 PM »

I know, Sam, it's fine!

They are on four separate waiting lists for rescues. This is the most recent email:

Unfortunately I have not had any luck at all and they
are on four cat protection sites so I am beginning to
feel that no one is interested. I am asking at some
Nursing Homes as I think it would be lovely for the
old people but they have not got back either probably
as its a Health & Safety issue.
I never thought it would be so difficult to rehouse
them. Will keep on trying.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #43 on:** January 25, 2007, 16:55:27 PM »

What is she actually doing though Jack .... has she posted on other forums or is she just relying on you and this one? That isn't supposed to sound as snotty as it does

JackSpratt · « **Reply #42 on:** January 25, 2007, 12:36:32 PM »

Yep, they do. Emailed the lady who has them last night actually. The poor woman, she says she had no idea it would be so hard to find somewhere for them.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #41 on:** January 25, 2007, 09:25:44 AM »

Just bumping this one up .... these poor girls really need a home!

JackSpratt · « **Reply #40 on:** January 17, 2007, 23:28:18 PM »

Wondering whether anything has happened with these two; I think they're absolute stunners. The lady who has them however said "they aren't endearing themselves to her." She didn't mention bad behaviour, from what I can tell what she meant is despite caring for them for so long she doesn't real feel any affection for them.

Anyone got a loving home for two lovely looking old girls?

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #39 on:** January 11, 2007, 21:26:49 PM »

What area do you live in?

maisey21 · « **Reply #38 on:** January 09, 2007, 21:13:38 PM »

I was after a long haired so thats what I had in my head but the right cat/s will be what ever it/they are!

I'll email her in the morning when I hav time to give her some information about here as she knows the cats best and will know whether they will fit in here or not.

Thanks for all your help

JackSpratt · « **Reply #37 on:** January 09, 2007, 20:42:00 PM »

holehouse1@yahoo.co.uk

That's the lady that is currently caring for these two old timers! TBH, I've emailed her a couple of times and don't remember her ever mentioning a dog, so I'm not sure how great they'd be in an environment that they'd have to share with them!

Best to email her directly with any questions, though. You never know.

I think they're lovely, but you said they aren't really what you're looking for. Can I ask what that is so people have an idea?

maisey21 · « **Reply #36 on:** January 09, 2007, 18:28:06 PM »

Ok after reading back and forth 5 times the piccy is now there. They are cute, not at all what I was looking for but I'll see what I can do and how close they are.

Do you know if they are used to kids and dogs?

What about home check or donation?

Thanks

maisey21 · « **Reply #35 on:** January 09, 2007, 18:12:28 PM »

Hi sorry I know I am probably being really thick but I have been up and down the post and I can't find the pic at all or a link. I'm off to have a look on multimap and find out where chestrfield is

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #34 on:** January 09, 2007, 17:55:29 PM »

Hi and welcome to Purrs Maisey,

The only picture we have of these two is the one on the thread .... if you click on the picture it will enlarge it. As you can see these two girls are more like burmese than siamese.

maisey21 · « **Reply #33 on:** January 09, 2007, 16:22:52 PM »

Hi I've just joined. How is everyone? I'm quite intrigued by these kitties if someone can email me the info and photo's on them please. I have no real idea how this forum works so please forgive any mistakes until I'm used to things and have found my way around.

We'd like another cat or 2 but as we already have a male cat, 2 german shepherds & kids we'd need to make sure the new arrival/s will be happy here.

These 2 girls sound a little old to fit in if it's not what thy are used to but if they are happy with dogs and kids i'd like to know more.

I'm sure one of you will be able to get my email address if it doesn't already show & we'd love some pics. If not do you know of any others needing homes? I live East of birmingham but my partner lives in somerset so we travel alot. Anywhere along the m5 or somerst/dorset area or close midlands is ok for the right puss.

hope I haven't mad a complete plonker of myself

Thats one obese oriental! Where has the slim lithe body gone!

I have to say that my Casper does not have the stomach of an oriental! I have always been careful not to let any of my cats and rabbits become overweight, but Casper is a first. When I took him to the vets for his boosters, our vet laughed when he saw Casper's jelly belly. He said as things are he is ok to leave, but if he puts anymore on he will have to go on a diet.It's not that we overfeed him. He gets into cupboards and drags the sachets of food out, rips them open and eats them. He's the same with bread. He loves it. It's got to the point where we have to hide it.

saffron · « **Reply #29 on:** January 07, 2007, 10:38:05 AM »

Oh! what a shame I really thought that these 2 were going to get a home, still great news for kittens back onto the search for these little furbabes

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #28 on:** January 06, 2007, 23:13:13 PM »

Just been on the hovel and unfortunately for these two Xiara has found two kitties from coventry cat resuce! Good news for the other two though.

Fingers crossed someone will come through for these two babes.

saffron · « **Reply #27 on:** January 06, 2007, 22:25:55 PM »

hope there will some good news for these 2 then Sam

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #26 on:** January 05, 2007, 19:31:07 PM »

I have sent this tread to Xiare on the Hovel.

please check out homes offered on the Hovel with regards these 2 as someone is offering a home for 2 cats ( think the name was Xiare)

JackSpratt · « **Reply #23 on:** January 05, 2007, 09:59:06 AM »

Further to recent correspondence with the lady who has these two, she now believes them to be a cross between the burmese and siamese breeds. I think they're gorgeous and if there was any way I could give them a home, I would! (Space, overcrowding and finances prohibit it, though!)

Canterbury_cats (Sharon) · « **Reply #22 on:** January 05, 2007, 09:25:40 AM »

Sorry to offend anyone, but are they really siamese as the thread originally suggested! I actually have one of our volunteers looking for a siamese but can only take one and female. Hope the best for these two.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #21 on:** January 05, 2007, 09:22:08 AM »

These two kitties are still looking for a new home:

It may not be the actual person who has the cats you mailad as she told me she did not have the internet when I asked her. so I advised her to ask a friend who had to look for Siamese rescues. Also I would say that we may all seem nice on here yet in reality we don't know someone at all. I know someone who posted on a message board (not this one) and everyone thought she/he was very nice, well I knew that person and they certainly were not what they portrayed to be. I could not believe the lies they posted.

Aren't you going to name and shame, Ela?!

just thought I wouls pop on here & ask people not to be so quick on asking for the nameing & shameing, on many of these situations because of the legal status the information cannot be given (for those you remember my warning on CC) just a reminder there are some who are not what they seem as Ela has said

JackSpratt · « **Reply #17 on:** December 09, 2006, 14:02:52 PM »

Ok, an update on this situation. I emailed the lady and she still has these two, but the cats are on a few waiting lists. If anyone can help I'm sure she'd be grateful.

Beanie · « **Reply #16 on:** November 30, 2006, 20:30:08 PM »

Hi all,

I'm sorry. I can't be much help on this matter. I can only post the following links which may bring some hope or clarity but I suspect that others have already suggested this. I am the world's worst expert on breeds but I have to join others in being sceptical bearing in mind the colour. Still these guys need help.

http://www.siameserescue.org.uk/

http://www.oldstylesiamese.co.uk/

They may be able to help even if it is only with identification. Do you know the breeder? If they breed Siamese seriously paying attention to needs and breeding society advice they will be registered with a bredding club. I'd like to be proved wrong but I won't hold my breath.
