F* Karat' Cats Boopy aka Miss Boopy is now home with me in the UK, she got home in the early hours of the morning
It's a wonderful feeling to finally have her here with me after such a long wait. She travelled ever so well. To start with she refused to sit in the carrier and screamed at me (She who must be obeyed!!) so she slept on my lap through Germany and Luxembourg and then put herself back in her carrier for the rest of the journey. She only woke up when the Eurotunnel announcements were done in French and she got up and started looking round to see who was speaking.
She's understandably stressed at the moment as it's a lot of changes for her (new people, new house, new cats, people sounding different due to language change etc) but given a bit of time she'll settle in and be fine. It's the first time in her life that she's ever been away from her mum and all the other cats she lived with as well as being away from her breeders who idolise the ground Miss Boopy walks on.
She had a little accident last night as she was too nervous to get out of her tent bed to use the litter tray so she wee'd in her bed poor girl. I've sprayed feliway on the litter tray now and moved it to opposite the bed and will spray more around the room later to hopefully relax her a bit more. I think once she starts to meet Bilbo she'll be happier as she's used to lots of feline company and she doesn't understand why there aren't 14 cats to play with any more.
She has been ever so brave at the vets today (she's had to have a general for her blood test and having a few matts cut out). The vet has said she needs to put some weight on as she's only 3.55kg at the moment so they're going to give me some A/D when I pick her up later to give her to build her up a bit. Hopefully she'll start eating and drinking later today and I can get some photos of her soon to show you what a brave little gorgeous star she is
I'm so excited to have my very special girl finally home. Behind her wild look is an absolute sweetheart
