Grey Boy got called Grey Boy because it took Laura a while to get the people who had him to tell her his name. Turns out he was called Shadow, but his new small human chose him a new name for his new start. I think Freddie suits him. :)

So pleased. Well done all of you! :hug:

So you have delivered GB to his new home then?


Gill, GB is what Charlie was called during his mammoth story on CC before he had a name-how weird is that!!  Hope you're ok!   :hug:



Wow I didnt know that and so pleased he has a home now.

I am just very emotional right now and wish Franta would come and cuddle me.

I think the two relays today have been wonderful......4 cats homed  ;D

 :evillaugh: @ Pussy sleeping on her back legs in the air. I too am looking forward to an update on Pussy. I didn't see her for long but she's so gorgeous I must follow the updates on here.

Aww sweet little grey boy...Freddie is it?  ;D  I could have easily taken him home...just adorable  :Luv2: What a long day he had and he was soooo good.

Our own cats kick up such a fuss when we take them in the car yet these pusscats have been so well behaved...bet it'll be a different story when they settle with their new slaves and take a trip to the vets  ;D

I too feel honoured and a teensy bit emotional. Today has given me a very warm fuzzy feeling  :)
Very best of luck to both furries and their new slaves  :hug:

We got back just after 4 this afternoon.  Freddie settled himself in very quickly.  I didn't want to leave!  I am feeling quite overwhelmed and emotional now.  It really has been a fantastic day  :Luv:

Its been a big day for all of us and also Pussy and GB and really hope they are very happy in their new homes,.

Amazing that it all started in Pembrokeshire around 0900 this morning and we all are back home safely and so are the cats.

Without your help Rachel GB would not have got to his home  ;D

Thank you everyone for involving me in this special project.  It has been an honour and privilege to have made a contribution (if only a tiny one!) and I can't wait to see more photos and hear updates about how both cats are settling in.  You are all amazing!   :Luv2:

I took my camera but there wasnt space to take a pic of the GB who is really gorgeous. Also couldnt take one Of Pussy cos was too emotional by then.

Pussy is being spayed on Monday so a lot for her to take in this weekend and I too cant wait for pics and updates.

thank you all for your help again. pussy is fast asleep in her room now, i'm leaving her in peace to settle in so i will post an update in a few days time. she is adorable. there wasn't a peep from her the whole way home. i didn't look at her as i was driving but we stopped at lights, so i peeked in. she was on her back, looking at the ceiling of the carrier, with her feet in the air. she gave me quite a fright and i whispered "Puss" she just turned looked at me with disgust. poor girl was asleep!!! and i'd dared to wake her up!

wow wasn't grey boy a stunner, he looks alot like a feral cat i keep seeing here. he was so much smaller than i expected but lovely just the same.

it was lovely to meet you shirley, your friend and cazzer :)

Awwww Gill  :hug: She is indeed a beauty!!! Only saw her for a few minutes cos wanted to get grey boy home! Think everyone fell in love with him-he is sooooooooooo  cute-reminds me so much of my Charlie, except Charlie is a darker grey, but the image of him in old pics from the factory  :Luv2: :Luv2: He never made any noise all the way, seemed pretty settled.  :Luv2: :Luv2:He would've been home about 4pm-bet he couldn't wait to get out of the carrier, bless him! :evillaugh:

It was lovely to meet everyone and i hope both of the furries have fantastic lives!  :hug: :hug:

Gill lots of hugs, you did incredibly well.       I know it is hard as I said I've had to to do it myself with my much loved raggie Beau who I had to rehome after 6 years.     You have to try and put your own feelings aside at such times and think of the cats.     

I didn't hear a peep out of either cat on the whole journey and met up with Lau and Shirley on time so I'm sure by now Pussy will be in her new home.

:care: Gill, you've done an amazing thing. Cared for Pussy, realised your mob can't cope with a newcomer, however lovely, and found her a safe home where she'll be loved. :hug:

Oh Gill, no it's not... quite the opposite.
Been following Pussy's thread and you have done the very best for her and your own pusses (who I'm sure love you dearly).

(((((Gill)))))))

Having seen beautiful Pussy I can well understand how you're feeling.
I've seen the pics and they just don't do her justice...she is stunning.
Lau is indeed one lucky lady.

Sending you lots of  :hug: :hug: :hug:

Pussy and grey boy left with cazzer about an hour 2 hours ago..........he is gorgeous and so small and so thirsty.

My heart is just totally broken and Pussy learned to meow and sang all the way which was making driving very hard cos it was breaking me up as she tried so hard to escape and catch my hand.

She tried every trick she could think of to get me too look at her and get her out of that carrier, she even rolled over and looked at me with big pleading eyes.

This is just the worst thing I have ever done  :'( :'( :'( :'(

I so wish it could have worked for her to stay with me but just know it couldnt and now I will have 4 happy cats who dont care a fig about me but will be pleased cos Pussy has gone.

Oh Lau you have one stunning kitten who just wants to be loved and safe.

Just had a text from Sue-she says he's GAWJUS and so affectionate!!!  :Luv2: :Luv2:

OMG! He was adorable  :Luv2: but so tiny. I was expecting a huge boy but he's not at all. Didn't hear a peep out of him the whole way...in fact I started to wonder if he was even on board  :shocked: A few little meows when we stopped and I spoke to him but he's very quiet.
I gave him a few biccies which went down well and I filled up his water bowl which he drank so quickly I gave him a second bowlful as he was obviously desperately thirsty. Stuck my hand in and gave him fuss which he LOVED and when Gill arrived we decided to give him a little more water...didn't want him dehydrated on the long journey. He seemed satisfied after the third bowlful but slightly worrying that he drank nearly half a 380ml bottle of water  :shocked: 
Safe journey Gill and Grey Boy  :hug:

Lau ~ Pussy is stunning. You are sooo lucky. I think I fell a little in  :Luv2: with her myself.

Morning All,

Carrier has been liberally sprayed with Feliway and is in position in the car.
I'll be setting off in about 30 minutes.
Gill I'll call you when Grey Boy has been transferred to me...see you in Carmarthen  ;D

Good luck everyone!
