The litter tray

RSPCA home check

We went to our local RSPCA on Saturday and found our perfect cat, a three year old female. Very friendly and sweet. We have never had a cat before but grew up with them and know what to expect.

We have a home check tomorrow and I am worrying! The guy at the RSPCA said it was a formality and he had no worries about us passing it from chatting to us.

We have a house with an enclosed garden but it is quite an urban area, just a few miles from the city centre and we live about 200m from a shopping street, it can be busy at rush hour but the speed limit is 20mph and it is very pedestrian friendly (not that a cat would care but...) so I am worried they will say no. When we reserved her we said the area we lived in and they didn't say anything about it. There are loads of cats on our street and tbh most places in this city are near a busy(ish) street.

I know I won't know until tomorrow but I am so worried!

Oh I like Charlie. When do you pick him up? You must be so pleased.

I was so worried before our home check and now Maisy (the cat) is home it feels like she has always been here and I don't know what I was worried about.

We pick him up tomorrow morning at 11.30. He already feels like part of the family - we're both so excited. It's way better than Christmas :-)

I like Charlie too x
