She has been living in our wood store for the last few weeks and for the last two we have been leaving food out. We put details up on local facebook pages, leaflet dropped and put posters up in local shop etc. No-one came forward so I took her to local vet and had her scanned for a chip. Nothing there and the vet told me she has a cigarette burn on her neck Angry

she is beautiful, friendly and sweet- a fluffy tabby with the foxiest brush of a tail. Vet reckons she is around eight months old

we cannot keep her as our boy is an only cat and detests all other cats. He will go walkabout if she stays as he's done that to previous owners. She is very sweet with him and is well socialised

I live just outside Durham- please pm me if you can help

thank you

Well done Stewpots and Mr Stewpots

StewPots · 26/11/2017 20:22

@Toooldtobearsed haha nope loads to do when I get home, but priority is going to be settling Heidi in our room, then sorting out all her bits and bobs. Then I'll have a shower and possibly sleep :) and no work thank god tomorrow so it's a DS, Heidi and me kinda day :)

StewPots · 26/11/2017 20:24

And thanks everyone for your kind words. We are tired of course but this was so worth it. I just want Heidi to settle and love us like I know we already love her. She was flagged up to me for a reason I know it :) and I cannot wait until she's confident enough for proper snuggles and cuddles. @Gatekeeper she has been snuggled in the blankets with her little lion the whole time SmileSmileSmile

Gatekeeper · 26/11/2017 20:31

Awww, my son knit that for our village show a couple of years ago. She seemed.to like pesseling it around the room whilst.Sherlock looked.on with disdain. Bedtime not half.as.nice without her snuggling up and chirruping away; Mr Gate nowhere near as cute!

Aww did he? That's awesome I love how she has some personal stuff from you :) haha poor Mr.Gate. Mr Stew just said he thinks he'll have tunnel vision when he stops driving! About 15 mins away. Would have been home sooner but we stopped for half hr which Heidi seemed to enjoy :)

Well done on your epic journey! Rest well tonight all of you. We'll be patient for updates!

BigApple11 · 26/11/2017 21:12

This is the best thread ever !

StewPots · 26/11/2017 21:19

Just to let you all know she's eaten a little and used her litter box and she's now exploring our bedroom with much curiosity. She's let us love her a little too Grin

diamantegal · 26/11/2017 21:32

De-lurking to wish you all the best. Gatekeeper I don't know how you've let Heidi go, she sounds a lovely cat. And to Mr and Mrs StewPot and the mini-Pots, you are clearly insane but lovely people. I hope Heidi loves you as much as you deserve and wish you many purr-filled days.

Vinorosso74 · 26/11/2017 21:36

What a journey! Pleased you're home safely and it sounds like Heidi will settle in just fine.

lizzieoak · 26/11/2017 21:49

De-lurking as well to say I’m glad you’re all home safe and sound and I hope she lets you sleep :)

StewPots · 26/11/2017 21:57
