We have already got 3 cats (a 4yr old and two 9 month olds) and tomorrow we are re-homing a lovely 10 yr old girl, her owner is very ill and can't look after her any more.

So happy we are able to re-home her Grin I just hope she will settle in well with the other cats.

I think I am officially a mad cat woman Grin

That's great, I love that you're adopting an older cat too. Post a pic when you get her??! Smile

I am very jealous! Here's to lots of cat cuddles 😻🍷
We used to look after a really old indoor cat on the regular, with two under fives in the other house I like to think she loved her half term r&r with us.

That's so good. My elder cat is 12 now. I'd love to know someone like you would take her in if the need arose. Flowers

Ooh yes I forgot the pic. My DP says this has to be the last cat we take in...we'll see Grin

She is called Pippa. Apparently she still acts like a kitten so should get on well with mine.

So excited..getting ANOTHER cat tomorrow!!

I didn't even think about her age, I saw her advertised on my local FB page today, she's been on it for a few days and nobody was interested. Such a shame, it shouldn't matter about their age, just that they need a loving home.

She's gorgeous! What a lovely thing to do Smile

MajesticSeaFlapFlap · 18/03/2016 17:57

She looks like shes planning something...

EnjoyTheSimpleThingsInLife · 18/03/2016 18:00

Pippa is lovely. That's a fantastic thing to do. We have had our first ever cat for just a few weeks and I'm already itching to get him a wee buddy 🙈

Penguinepenguins · 18/03/2016 19:30

That cat is definitely planning something... As is my six month old kitten..

I'd have hundreds if I could :) But 3 is really enough... it's really not

Post moar pics envy.
No seriously, she is gorgeous and wd for taking on an older girl. Though 10 is hardly even senior in today's money. I have informed my cats they must live until at least 20.
Let us know how she integrates!

Fluffycloudland77 · 19/03/2016 08:04

She is beautiful. She looks very intelligent too.

NanoTechMum · 19/03/2016 08:28

She's beautiful.

Let us know how it goes.

EnjoyTheSimpleThingsInLife · 19/03/2016 14:43

Thanks everyone. Pippa is now here with us, she is hiding but I'm sure she will be ok soon and settle in.

She is absolutely beautiful!

This is her at her old home, waiting to be collected, bless her.

And her now hiding in our living room.

So excited..getting ANOTHER cat tomorrow!!

She is gorgeous! Our old girl was 19 when we lost her. I too have told the new kittens they have to live to be AT LEAST 20!!

EnjoyTheSimpleThingsInLife · 19/03/2016 14:52

Aww sorry to hear about your cat Wolfie we lost our cat Charlie 5 months ago, he was only 7 Sad. Since then we have got two kittens and now Pippa.

I hope all of our cats live to at least 20 as well..I think it's amazing how long cats can live, it's lovely hearing them living so long.

Seniorboy is over 21 now. Smile

RubbishMantra · 19/03/2016 16:11

What a lovely looking cat.

I (jokingly) tell my 2 I want my money's worth out of them, so they better live long, happy lives. Grin

problembottom · 19/03/2016 17:18

That picture of her waiting to be collected breaks my heart! She's gorgeous, hope she settles in ok.
