Worry is over, Seb came round last night and put my mind at rest, the last time I seen him was 11 days ago but now I know he is ok. He came and waited at the back door to be fed, he ate in the house. He also stuck around for about 10 minutes having a fuss and he seemed to be a bit more nosey around the garden, no spraying and then running off. My cats were ok with him actually and his war wounds are starting to clear up good.

Still no sign. I usually didnt see him for a few days at a time anyway but with him having the op I want to know he is ok.

Sometimes in these cases they go back to their owner with 'their tail between their teeth' ;D/. I know this happened to a ginger cat that 'someone'  ;D borrowed and had neutered. I know because the owner rang to say it was missing when in fact ‘someone’  ;D knew where it was,  then a few days later the owner rang to say it had come back, I asked if it was OK and she said yes but I think it has had a fight with another cat, I didn't like to tell her that perhaps it had a fight with the vet. That cat was rarely seen after that near the persons house who borrowed it but was seen often near its real home.

Im hoping he has gone "home" and if he has the problems will be sorted for both of us. I wouldnt mind if he wanted to stay here but obviously he dosnt want to.  :shy:

It can take a couple of weeks before his hormones dissapear. After that, he'll suddenly realise where the easy life is.  :evillaugh:

Let my lot out last night so Seb could have an oogle around the house (about 8pm) and what has the little butter done? He has escaped through a very small window. Have not seen him yet either.

Glad things went well, I would try and keep him in longer than that though, he can still produce sperm for a few weeks.

Seb is home  :)

Im going to keep him here over night and if he wants to go out tomorrow (thats if he is ok, he seems ok) I will have to let him. I hope he will return though.

My cats seem to be fine I think they know he is here but they arnt making a fuss. Now I just have to try to get them to accept him. They should be a little less bothered now he is not spraying all over.

Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh, big sigh of relief.

I'm going to pick him up after 2, I still cant believe it.

I knew he would be ok ( I think ) as I don't think I would of had him tested if I had a "bad" feeling.

I will get some pics of him later.

Now I have to convince the others  :tired:

I cant even see right now for tears.

Was just about to get into bed last night ( 2am because I was waiting for Seb ) I looked out of the window and who was walking up my path.

I didn't want to say anything to jeopardise the chances.  ;D

Seb is ok the tests came back both negative and he has been neutered 

I cant believe it I'm so over the moon.

and rearrange it all for another day

Rather than arrange a day, I would explain the situation to the vet and ask that the next time (apart from weekend) he turns up you can take him to the vet immediately. We do this all the time.

Have you read Sylvia's thread about Tabs?  Her story is very similar to yours. Tab turned out to be Fiv positive, but she's keeping him with her cats anyway. Her more relaxed attitude may reassure you.

I hope everything goes well with Seb. Paws crossed that he turns up. (We need a fingers crossed emoticon!)  :hug:

Oh well I knew things were going too good, Seb the little swine has decided not to turn up I will have to phone the vets tomorrow and apologise profusely and rearrange it all for another day. I should of said "Seb" permitting. If he carries on eluding me I may have to do it myself.  :sneaky:

I listed 2 rescues on the most recent thread in the fiv section. To get him in somewhere safe may require him going on a car journey or two  :shy:

Fingers crossed the butter turns up.

I don't know of anything else I can say on this?

I feel I have explained all I can.

As I have said Seb has been a stray for about 6- 7 months, he started coming round before I had my kitten neutered I done the paper collar thing and his "owner" left a message on my phone. I have called her back many times but got no response. In the last few months he has been coming round with more and more battle scars on his face and I just figured that he cant be going home as if he were my cat coming home in that state I would of done something about it.

So I guess she has given up on him and I'm not waisting my time on her any more, whats the point if she cant even be bothered to phone me back? She obviously isn't going to get him sorted herself, so I will have to do it.

Seb is booked in for tomorrow Im praying he turns up today.  :shy:

CP's culling policy,

As previously posted CP in general  do not have a culling policy. It is for each individual branch to decide what they can do for cats.  While I appreciate all cats are equally deserving. If you have no spaces and very little funds what do they do? They have to ensure they have the funds for the little ones already in care. They cannot mix FIV cats, (then again we are not allowed to mix cats from a different situations anyway).  FIV cats usually take a little longer to home and it would be considered cruel to keep them in pens for over 6 months. You would have to find a fosterer with no other cats  and that is not going to happen as if you had a fosterer with a space a cat for the long waiting list would be taken in. Therefore you need a special FIV unit like ours, (can be seen in the gallery on our site)  for that you need to raise a lot of money and also have land to build it on. or someone willing to have a cat palace in a cat safe garden. I truly do not think any branch makes the decision to PTS lightly, however, they can only do what they can with the funds, manpower and facilities they have available. If more cat lovers volunteered to help with fostering, fundraising and the numerous jobs that are necessary to make a rescue work then things will improve. But until then rescuers can only do what they have with what they have got. Many people in CP rescue are available 24/7  which for slaves unpaid volunteers is in my opinion  a credit to CP.
