..."Daddies stalkie tortie"

Sending much love to the Clan Cats (And Skye and Sunny too of course)

aww thanks Liz. I really appreciate that response. I remember reading about the "clan" here and it brought a smile to my face - it brings a real feeling of personality to it but that is all i knew and so I was interested in hearing more! ok ok I am nosey!!!

Looking after them including litter trays and feeding 3 times a day takes about 2 hours as I am on such a well trained routine

They all have their parent time and Sweetie as befits her status sleeps on the couch on her 2 different beds and yes I sometimes feed her there to but she is now getting up for food so vets think she is now stabilising on the diabetic insulin so we are pleased for that just got to get the test results back somehow I keep putting off phoning so I don't get bad news!

I have my nocturnal kids and they are the easiest of all as they aren't keen on us humans but all still get Mother sticking her head in to hidey holes and saying hello

We currently have an extra couple of fosters - last years feral kittens that some idiot "couldn't" tame down so they have come to see what our feral finishing school can do for them - got their vet books today and she hadn't even named them in one year

They are a ginger and white boy called McKenzie and another Brindle tortie called Gypsy - we now have 3 brindle torties - Xian, Beijing and Gypsy and our calico Amber - only Beijing is a domestic and Amber is her Daddies stalkie tortie and only tolerates me!

my heart belongs to Sweetie the leader of the Clan Cats she is my soul cat

What a lovely thing to say. I think your first feline baby always has a special place.

Daisymac · « **Reply #38 on:** September 14, 2010, 22:54:35 PM »

I love hearing about the clan

Liz · « **Reply #37 on:** September 14, 2010, 22:47:36 PM »

The Clan is a rather large bunch of cats ranging from Sweetie the leader and my only original lady aged 18 years and 7 months who was diagnosed as diabetic 2 weeks ago - our second diabetic after our Tiger our former feral alpha male who died 18 months ago, down to baby Charlie at 12 weeks

The Clan is made up of mainly ferals and the ones that no normal family would have - in fact when we moved here 4 years ago with our then 37 we even bought our feral colony as no one could feed them - the ones left are now house cats!

The Clan also have a rescue Ragdoll with an awful lot of issues but she is the only way I would ever have had a pedigree cat - she was dumped at my OH's work in a box with the parting words if you don't take her we will kill her so she came in at number 18!

The Clan cats also have their own pets my 2 wonderful cat savy Border collies Astra Zephyr Sky known as Sky aged 3 who is black and white and and Ravenhill Blazing Sunshine known as Sunny or Sunny Bunnikins

my red and white collie boy who is 22 months old. Both bought is as puppies and trained by the cats as to what they are allowed to do and both adored by all the feral cats who share their beds and crates in the evening

I run a 2 fold system my indoor/outdoor crew, my indoor only and my outdoor only - I also have a foster from Sunny Harbour Miss Skye in the one of the guest bedrooms and en suites

The cats are all in at night and thats when they all mix as one big furry family - and thats an awful lot of fur!!!!!

Some folks have visited us and can't get over the way they are to us its normal we work hard to keep them to the manner they are re accustomed to and somebody did comment to my OH that it was a bit much me getting and new Ford Kuga in panther black as we have a Cougar and a Panther and I love my multicoloured family but my heart belongs to Sweetie the leader of the Clan Cats she is my soul cat

Guest · « **Reply #36 on:** September 14, 2010, 22:36:30 PM »

Awww he is lovely.

Liz as a relatively new member I hear you talk about the clan a lot. What is the clan!! I assume it is a lot of cats but tell me more!!!!

Liz · « **Reply #35 on:** September 14, 2010, 22:32:09 PM »

He is s alittle charmer and gets away with murder - the Clan adults are being relatively well behaved with him - I think some of them are looking for more - they have never had just one kitten

This photo is a fave of mine how could anyone not love this boy

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #34 on:** September 14, 2010, 22:29:46 PM »

OMG Liz. He is stunning. Those eyes, that face, those markings

These are for Charlie

Liz · « **Reply #33 on:** September 14, 2010, 22:17:44 PM »

This is my baby in a little session - he is on one of the chairs in the kitchen he now thinks is his

First piccie you can see his leg at an odd angle - the back one this is his now saved leg

JackSpratt · « **Reply #32 on:** September 13, 2010, 09:36:10 AM »

Charlie sounds a right little tearaway at the moment!

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #31 on:** September 13, 2010, 07:03:40 AM »

I think Tan's spot on. He's gonna be a "Big Boss".

Tan · « **Reply #30 on:** September 11, 2010, 10:46:48 AM »

He has a wonderful personality then hun and fink he;s aiming for the top Alpha position getting in with the top guys!

So glad about his leg.

Would love to see more piccies of gorgeous Charlie lad

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #29 on:** September 09, 2010, 12:59:36 PM »

Bless him he's a fiesty little devil

Glad that the news on his leg is good and

to whoever was responsible. The little lad will have a wonderful life now with the clan, he couldn't be in better hands

Liz · « **Reply #28 on:** September 09, 2010, 11:00:39 AM »

Not quite sure what the vet did but he has been haring around at 90 mph since coming home on Monday he is playing like crazy with all teh big cats and even stood on a box and had a bop at bailey Bad Boy Wilson our alpha male

Bless Bailey he only raised a paw till Mummy intervened - i wish he would play with the lighter bunch of the Clan the 2.75 to 4kg mob but oh no baby Charlie is playing with teh 4+kg mob and I have to play referee = and remind the larger ones tehy bring home bigger prey

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #27 on:** September 09, 2010, 08:05:46 AM »

This little chap looks exactly like I thought he would!

He's incredibly handsome. And cheeky looking.

You know how chuffed we are that his leg has been saved, and sending all big huggley kisses to Charlie on his road to recovery. Paddy says he calls him "Charlie Chumba Wumba" ("I get knocked down, but I get up again....")

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #26 on:** September 08, 2010, 07:23:26 AM »

Poor Charlie

So pleased he seems to be healing OK

Steff - Petsearch Bedford HQ · « **Reply #25 on:** September 07, 2010, 23:45:50 PM »

LOL at Sam!!

That is shocking, I will NEVER understand how anyone can hurt an animal.

Glad Charlie is now safe in the Clan and also glad you had such positive news for his little leg

Daisymac · « **Reply #24 on:** September 07, 2010, 20:38:03 PM »

I am so glad that you have Charlie and he will live a life of luxury, how on earth anyone can do that to an animal is beyond me, so glad the news wasnt too bad Liz

JackSpratt · « **Reply #23 on:** September 07, 2010, 16:50:52 PM »

I'm horrified anyone could do something like this to any animal. Glad Charlie is with you now, Liz.

Tan · « **Reply #22 on:** September 07, 2010, 15:53:50 PM »

It will always make me angry and upset to hear any animal being hurt.

So glad he is with you hun and has a wonderful life ahead

He is so gorgeous

OMG the poor little man ... why are some people so cruel

I'm so pleased chuckie cheese found you Liz ... he is one VERY lucky little boy. I am seriously considering getting myself a kitty costume and hanging out round your house inthe hope you might adopt me as well! You and Robin are wonderful people and I'm sure Clan Cats would let me curl up with them!

clarenmax · « **Reply #20 on:** September 07, 2010, 09:23:55 AM »

Wonderful news for you and Charlie

madkittyrescue · « **Reply #19 on:** September 07, 2010, 08:41:01 AM »

great news on charlie Liz!

Shirley · « **Reply #18 on:** September 07, 2010, 07:11:24 AM »

That's such good news for little Charlie, Liz!

I was going to say how can anyone do that to a tiny kitten, but then thought, maybe it was a little child? Whoever did it, it's just awful!

Thank goodness he's now got you to look after him!

Liz · « **Reply #17 on:** September 06, 2010, 23:31:48 PM »

Baby Charlie after consultation with the vet Charlie - yup kitten named after vet will be keeping his leg

The xrays showed that someone had swung him round by the hind legs and dislocated and broken lots of small bones but sue to the Clan magic - we let him be a kitten hooligan has helped and the bones are joining back together them selves so apart from a limp so far so good and the leg is staying and so is the metacam every other day till his boy bit op then we will review more xrays - cheapest vets bill so far this month having been 5 times

Tan · « **Reply #16 on:** September 05, 2010, 10:37:51 AM »

Chucky Cheese

Def suits him. He is soooo gorgeous

I so hope there can be something done for his leg and sending all my bestest wishes for his Xray on Monday.

Glad he's enjoying the track

Huge cuddles coming for Little chucky cheese and all the wonderful clan

Kirst · « **Reply #15 on:** September 05, 2010, 10:20:35 AM »

he's so lovely!!!

Liz · « **Reply #14 on:** September 03, 2010, 21:54:37 PM »

Well an update on Baby Charlie or his new name Chuckie Cheese

He is off for more xrays on Monday as he has started to put the paw down and use it but he is still on Metacam every other day or he limps - we have encouraged him with an awful lot of new toys and he loves his turbo track from the Purrs shop and all the other things with balls in as he has to use his leg to stand on when chasing so we re hpoing that further down the line we can perhaps fuse the bones in one of his joints to keep the leg as sadly it is going in 2 different directions from his hip and knee joint but its not stopping him - he has now mastered getting on the kitchen chairs and table and discovered cat milk yesterday

I will be taking some mkre photo's at the weekend of Baby Charlie, Charles, Chuckie Cheese the Clan cats youngest member

Liz · « **Reply #13 on:** August 09, 2010, 23:45:01 PM »

Charlies Grandparents are here for a week and he has won their hearts but then again difficult for him not to he had mine and his Daddys quickly to!

He is also playing out all day and has mastered the first level of the scratching post today and was so proud he ate his tea up there

Tan · « **Reply #12 on:** August 09, 2010, 14:53:37 PM »

Ooo he is stunning hun

so glad he found you

Charlie is lovely and i am glad he has found his special home with The Clan

Liz · « **Reply #9 on:** August 07, 2010, 14:48:48 PM »

Well having spent a nearly a week with Charlie OH thinks he needs a playmate - the clan cats are being very good but even my lightest ones are way to big and Sunny collie is obseesed by him and he weighs 27kgs so we think someon his own size would be best especially when the op comes along - it won't be for a while unless the leg is causing to much aggro and to date its not but we are keeping a close watcj that he doesn't split the hock he is using to run on - and he is quick!

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #8 on:** August 06, 2010, 15:26:11 PM »

Oh bless him he is so sweet. Thank goodness he is with you now Liz, couldn't be in a better place. How many does that make now?
