Re: Smudgley - update


his past, better not say too much on here, but lets just say there was not much said about his past when he came in

Will he be hard to rehome?

Well he has a few things against him
1- he's not a kitten, (but he is only young).
2-he's male, don't know why, but everyone wants girls
3-he is at the moment "unhandle-able" (do you like that word? think I just made it up!)

So looking at all his facts, yes he is at the moment looking almost impossible to rehome. I can't even bring him in the house to see what he's like.

I should have said if my circumstances were different but thanks Fran - I think though you speak through rose coloured glasses .

At the moment I have a cat that does not trust me, the reason have a look in pictures I'll post there.

No - sometimes it's really hard, knowing that he may not be happy here, but then I always look at the alternative & in this case, there's no alternative at the moment. So here he shall stay until an understanding person comes along, or until he chills out a bit.

Sorry Smudgley didnt mean to make it sound like he living in a bad place now!!! Think your Kitty Hotel is very nice, but just that he needs to interact in a normal household.

Oh I know Donna - & I agree with you, he does need to interact in more normal surroundings & he may then feel more comfortable. I just think it's a shame when they aren't happy.

Poor Harry, I hope he will learn to relax and trust people again.....
Pity we all didn't live near you Smudgley, we could take it in turns and try to give him the fusses he deserves.....

Re: Smudgley - update


I wish I could give a rescue cat a home but I have tried and tried and I have too many things against me:

A) I have a child under 5 (he's 3)
B) I'm only a student (they prefer you to be working)
C) I have 3 dogs....

It's unfortunate because I do have a loving home right here honist (ask tabs, lol she's 14 this year and she's not complaining!)
