Just a couple of photos of the gorgeous Oscar and Shakespeare.   They really are the most affectionate and gentle cats you could ever meet and I'm sure won't be waiting long for their forever home.
Were neutered last week and first vacs today.

wow aren't they a couple of heartbreakers!  :Luv: :Luv:

Soooo happy they've found a forever home. The new owner is very lucky and so are the boys by the sound of it!  ;D

The boys will be going to their new home on Sunday - hope so much that it works out for them this time.   The people are lovely, the man is retired and so lots of time to fuss and play with them which is great.   They have been slaves to several cats in the past but have waited two years since their last one went to the Bridge until they felt ready - asked me lots about their personalities, food/litter/treats/toys they prefer etc. so am really happy that this is the purrfect home that they deserve.

What handsome boys, sad that they have come back and sad for the lady too, but I am sure with their good looks they will soon find a forever home.

Ah it's obviously a reaction to her drugs then. I hope she has the chance to have a loving relationship with future kitties then.  :)

It's sad as the lady phoned me today and it seems likely that the allergy is because she has recently finished a course of chemotherapy - she has owned a cat and a dog in the past without any problems.    Hopefully for her, given time, she may be OK with pets again.   The boys are back to their usual lively selves today - so affectionate too,  Shakie actually stands on his back legs on the table and throws his paws around my neck - they definitely deserve a forever home soon.

i can't believe she hasn't given it longer for her body to adapt, or tried things like anti-histamines, Petal Cleanse - she clearly isnt' the right person for these two.

Poor boys!  :( Can't believe she only gave it 8 hours  :( I was allergic to Lu & Riley for weeks after they first arrived (was fine with Tiggy) but just gave it time and it settled down.

At least they weren't there long enough to develop a bond, fingers crossed the next home is their perfect forever home  :hug:
Same with Sean and there was NO WAY he was going to them go, even tho he was pretending not to be that fussed by them!  :rofl:

They are so stunning those two. I feel sorry for them!

 :( I couldn't let those two stunning babes go once in my house. They are sooo lovely.   :Luv: :Luv: :Luv:
What will the lady do now ... go look for a cat that doesn't give her an allergy?!!!!  Such a shame, they deserve more respect!

Glad they are with your hun at least they are well loved  :hug:  I hope it won't be long before they do get their forever loving home.

Yes, hopefully the right home for them won't be too long.   It was sweet when we went to collect them as when they heard my voice in the hallway they started meowing.   They don't seem their usual selves today though - bit stressed I guess.

The boys went to their new home yesterday lunchtime but were back with me by 8pm as the lady developed an allergy.   While I am more than happy to have them here again I feel sorry for them and her that it didn't work out.   At least I did manage to part with my first fosters, albeit only for a few hours !

A lovely lady and her sister came to meet the boys today and they have found their forever home.   I am really pleased for them and sure they will be very happy with her.    She is about to go on holiday so that means I get to keep them until 21st September too.

Someone is interested and home check being done tomorrow.    They are so sweet and loving that I am certain the first person to meet them will home them.

Their owner had to move and wasn't able to take them so they went to her friend who has their mum but things didn't work out.  I cannot believe how loving the are - Shakey climbed onto my knee earlier then put his front paws up onto my shoulder and snuggled his head into my neck - just gorgeous.

Change of plan and two gorgeous boys arrived this evening - they are seven months old ginger brothers with stunning markings.   A little shy but very affectionate - camera batteries on charge Helen !   I don't think they will be waiting long for their forever home which is probably a good thing for me.
