Re: advice please...

Ok , so many thank to you all , youve really helped me. To the person whi told me it keeps coming back because im feeding it , well of course i knew that but what was I supposed to do the poor thing was starving. Point is I know nothing about cats whatsoever and that is why I came on here but BIG news.. I was out all day today , of course cat there this morning and fed it (hisses at me though, well once..) but rolling over and tail over the place. Anyway when came back the cat come charging down path at me ..such a joy ! I had bought some cat treats and gave it one and now its sat sitting on my mat again outside. I have decided that if the cat is not chipped then I WILL KEEP IT .. If that is what shes wants.. Can I ask you all I wii really need your help then . So I will let you know tomorrow when Ive been to vets. Again manybthanks you are all very nicve people and very helpful x

Woohoo!!!!!!

Well done for making the best decision you will ever make!

Feel free to ask any questions what-so-ever - we will all gladly help you to become a perfect cat slave. No matter how silly you think a question might be, please do ask because it won't be silly at all.

Am I SOOOOOOOOOO happy for you. Looking forward to hearing back from you vet visit tomorrow now.....

Regarding the hissing - if this little one has been a stray for a while, it may not always have had nice people feeding it so it might take a little bit of time for her to fully trust you. Just be patient and you will get there. Any animal that may have suffered bad treatment always requires a bit more effort to adjust to being cared for and loved.

Re: advice please...

Yay!

Puss has got you, hook line and sinkered!

This is wonderful news. You are also saving a rescue charity the cost of re-homing, and of course you are saving the cat from more stress.

Sorry could be jumping the gun here...let's just see if there's a microchip. Good luck! x

Re: advice please...

Oh what a happy story, quite brings a tear to my eye!
I am crossing my fingers and toes that the cat is not micro-chipped and that you do get to claim him/her as your own.
You will find that they are very easy creatures to care for.... warmth, food and a lap to cuddle up into and they are happy.
Looking forward to pictures!

Re: advice please...

Have you given him/her a name yet? What sex is the cat? We need pics! I'm betting there is no chip and someone just dumped it. The whole situation smacks of what happened to Fluffy. Lets be honest if it was a local cat then you would see the owner calling the cat's name and looking worried and asking around if anyone has seen one.

I'd say give her a home. Most animal charities won't want to know unless there is a chance of her coming into danger. I expect once you 'fess up to feeding her you'll get persuaded to "foster her" until the owners turn up.

That's what we did.
