I rescued this gorgeous beast today!

I took a bit of a gamble. Our old cat passed away in November and I have really felt her absence. We have 2 other much younger cats, but I really missed the dynamic of 3 cats.
I saw this boy, aged 8, who needed a home due to the owners poor health. He was in a local place that really don't vet owners so I wanted to make sure he had a good home.
Collected him at lunch time, and my god he is amazing, so naughty and vocal, but just the best! I've confined him to the living room, but he really is the least arsed cat I've ever met Grin. He has wanted aaaaaall the attention and strokes from the second he was in my car. The big beast actually broke the cat carrier and escaped whilst I'm doing 60mph on a dual carriage way. He then proceeded to shove himself under my feet as I'm driving. I don't even know how I made it home quite frankly.
He walked in like he owned the place. Ate all the cat treats, monopolised the cat toys, did a big stinky shit (I have never smelled anything quite so repugnant!) and then has meowed the rest of the day for attention, and demanding kisses.
He is just gorgeous. I love him! He is everything I wanted in a cat! My other 2 are females and are very aloof. Well, one is, the other is DP's floozy Wink. This one is my turn for a cat to love me!

Just got to do the introductions at some stage. Just hope it goes well!

I will keep trying to upload pics. It just won't let me again today. Finding MN very frustrating lately. So much doesn't work!

Aaahhhh, so much LOVE on this thread!

Toffee is perfect, what a gorgeous chap.

Perhaps his Sunday name could be Jasper Carrot?

Aaaaw happy news 😍😍🐈🐈

Is Treacle the floozy?

ThisMustBeMyDream · 04/04/2021 15:45

Treacle is definitely worthy of the floozy title 🤣.

Toffee is continuing to be happy as Larry. I've had the occasional swipe or bite from him if he hasn't liked a particular stroke, but other than that, he is so happy!

Yesterday my other half shouted at me to come in. We had been in the gardens doing work, so both front and back doors were open. My other half went up to use the toilet and found a cat we do not own, with Toffee purring contentedly near it lay on his side chilling Grin. When the cat saw DP it panicked and ran back down stairs and tried to escape whilst hissing at us. Toffee just looked bemused at the situation!

I'm blaming Treacle for wooing all the neighbourhood cats with her cat nip bag out the cat flap debacle!
