They are so incredibly gorgeous Jeff. Why oh why are such beautiful creatures abandoned like this, it's totally beyond me.

I know......mad world we live in:eek:

The sad thing is there are so many schemes out there for helping peeps get their pets neutered for the price of a packet of fags and four tins of larger there is really no excuse for all the unwanted kittens and pregnant cats !

It is for this very reason the rescue never homes kittens at Christmas.
They should become part of the family unit, not toys to keep till the novelty wears off!

I'd have them all - well the wife certainly would! Lovely pics as usual Jeff.

Many thanks, it was a struggle as usual not to sneak them home with me:D

This one nearly did;)

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psbnmmuyv1.jpg

They are just so beautiful. Kept a close eye on our ladies last night. 3 were watching the Parent Trap in our bedroom with the volume up, 2 were watching TV with us in the lounge and the eldest was asleep on the sofa beside me.

I kept mine in although I'm lucky in that they don't seem bothered by the fireworks.

Milly likes to sit in the window and watch them and the others just do their usual thing, thankfully:}

Not so sure how the cats at the rescue get on though as a few of our residents are of a nervous disposition :o

Lovely pics Jeff :} We have recently lost the last of our brood to feline Peritonitous. I did say that we wouldn't get more furry friends for a while and have a break from animals of any kind but after three weeks we realise we miss having them around too much..

Soooo, if you could PM details of the home etc and next time Hayley is off we will pop up, probably be a couple of kittens tbh although you never know.

Best wishes
Steve

Hi Steve,

Sorry to hear about your last cat.

The link to Crescent Cat Rescue is in my signature Sir;)

The phone number is 01255 861309

Viewing is by appointment only so please call Carole first and she will arrange with you a time and date:}

Well done Steve, the more we save the better. Don't forget a house is not a home without a Cat (or 6)

Only took a few photos this Saturday as it was dark when we got there and I didn't have my reflectors for flash photography with me!
Had to make do with bouncing the light as best I could:}

Only a hop, skip and jump away Andy;):}

H all, as I type this I have thrown two mice back into the garden tonight (woke the wife up to show her one jumping inside a transparent beaker, I think she smiled as opposed to grimace). Sugar the cat, sweet by name, physco mouse hunter by nature............!!

They are lovely aren't they, they even bring nature indoors for you to enjoy;):eek::getmecoat:

Cheers Jeff, seeing all those beautiful balls of fluff brightens up my day especially when I have just spent the last 4 hours in Portsmouth Naval base.

Is that good or bad ?:}

Todays visit was good but most are stressful. I have security clearance for most of the bases but still have to jump through hoops when I need to do something on their servers. Todays would have been better if I hadn't have forgotten my glasses.

Hi Jeff, meet our new member of the family,

Attachment 42062

She is a one year old Tabby that turned up at our local shelter ready to give birth, she has had her litter and they have all been adopted, but she has been overlooked, so once her litter is gone and her milk has dried up she will go to the vets and be spayed before taking up residence with us

She is gorgeous, I bet she is looking forward to her new home :bowdown:

A few from the weekend ;)

Simply delightful Jeff. We lost one of our ladies last thursday, she had renal problems and although the vets had her on a drip for 2 days she would not respond and when they told me she had no quality of life the decision was made. I miss Suki terribly and the other ladies do too but she is at peace now.

So sorry to hear of your loss Paul, it's really heartbreaking when we lose one of our companions.
Take comfort in the time you had together and that you done the kindest act of all to not let her suffer.

Maybe post a picture of Suki up on here as a lovely reminder to you.

Good idea Jeff, just like your avatar. Not sure if we have any digital pictures maybe just old 35mm stuff. I will check with the wife as she takes pictures of them with her phone.

This weekends trip to the rescue:}

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps97stzp2a.jpg

Great pics Jeff. :bowdown::bowdown:

Love the Black one yawning, very cute....

Tom.

He's a cutie isn't he :)

This is him and I in full selfie mode ;)

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psjvjly8nh.jpg

100% cuteness Jeff (the kitten not you.). Having lost Suki 2 weeks ago another of our ladies; Splodge, is now sick. The vets are pretty sure it's Lymphoma, we should get the results back this afternoon.

Thoughts and wishes with you, hope you get some good news Paul.

Hi Jeff, sorry to say she was not well at all. She had widespread Lymphoma and was in a great deal of pain/discomfort. She is at peace now. RIP Splodge

So sorry for your loss Paul,

Ros and I lost two last year within a short space of time and it was a really sad time.

Take comfort in the love you gave them and they gave back.
When the time is right I'm sure some new bundles of joy will find their way into your lives.

Here's Splodge in her best pose.

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...04f6254fd1.bmp

She's very much like my Cubby......

RIP Splodge.


http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psgiogdm6b.jpg

Thanks Jeff, she was such a wonderful girl.

Wow!!! thats one gorgeous puss cat.

Cubby is a real good boy, he's two years old now and is still growing !

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pstagdhzh4.jpg

I think I may start a 'Pets Corner' photo thread so peeps can share their photos of their cats, dogs and whatever :Snow:

Hi Jeff, just seen your new Pets Corner thread, a very good idea. I will try and get pictures of the 4 remaining ladies and upload them along with Splodge and Suki.

Look forward to seeing them Paul,

I shall post a few more on there later as well :)

Thanks Paul, just need to work on finding them all new 'forever homes' :)

Love cats, great pics !
I would take one instantly but a bit far to travel.:-)
Hope you find a home for them all.

Cheers!

Here's a quick pic of our adopted stray "Jones" residing in her latest sleeping spot (she changes her spot every few months):

http://i568.photobucket.com/albums/s...111_121549.jpg

She's a real survivor, having been a stray for 2 years or more before moving in with us. We had cause to take her to the vets a couple of years back when she fell ill over Xmas. They kept her in and, while doing various scans, x-rays etc, discovered that some years previously she had been shot and she still has the pellet in her chest to this day.

Cliff

She looks the picture of contentment Cliff :)

You do have to wonder about some people and the cruelty they inflict on others :(

Hopefully carma will come round to bite them back some day!

Love this one

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps6dbbjjsu.jpg

And the black twins, oh and errr.......................well I love them all but that one has a placid look about it.....................not like angry Bob

He/she has only just arrived along with his/hers three brothers/sisters.
The other grey cats and the dark coloured tabby.
They are victims of a divorce and are all very good natured puddy tats.
It is unlikely they will all be homed together but we are going to try and pair them for new homes :)

Merry Christmas Jeff :)

We have just taken in one kat and three kittens from the rescue in Nairobi. The kittens are from the same mum and we are getting the vet round to check them out for health and the jabs, bless their little hearts. They are living at the stables and will be joined by 2 donkeys, from the donkey rescue once the papers are done :)

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c4...203DB7779D.jpg

In this photo, the big cat lol is the mum .... We are still to give them names, bless their little cotton socks :)

They look like they have a great garden to roam and have fun in :)
More photos please of them and the rest of the menagerie ;)

Now that the weekend is here, I will see if I am lucky. The little cats will be chasing the mice and rats out of the stables and as the cats get bigger they will have many trophies to parade and show off :) At the moment the cats are quite illusive learning their way and getting to know and used to the dogs. The dogs won't touch them. Jeff, we are so lucky having them ...the kittens look so cute with pretty green eyes x

They are a bit smaller than some of the other cats you get in your part of the world Phil......Meow:)

Looking forward to seeing more of them .

Will be over at the rescue on Sunday so will post some more pictures up after our visit .

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pssjxs9n4u.jpg

The spectre look or you had a heavy night Mr Bond? :xmas-smiley-024:

Wishing all the staff and the cats at the rescue a merry Christmas Ros and Carole :christmas:

Many Thanks Phil,

I shall give the cats a big christmas hug from you tomorrow as well:Snow:

Only one new arrival over Christmas thankfully......but what a handsome boy he is:}

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pshb0pea1d.jpg

Hi Jeff

Just spent the last hour or so reading through your thread,

I would like to congratulate you on -

1- The work you must put in caring for these beautiful cats and re homing them.

2- For some fantastic photos capturing some really natural shots.

Hi Ray,

It's really not difficult to help out, the hard part is not bringing everyone of them home:D
Two of our kittens have found their forever home with one of our members on here ( Thanks Jay:bowdown:) and I like to let peeps see the cats that come into us as they are all in need of loving homes so it's all good exposure for them:}

I'm glad to say that we haven't had a massive influx of unwanted cats and kittens over the festive period and hopefully it will stay that way into the New Year!

The reason I didn't post much over Christmas on this thread is that we will not generally home cats and kittens over the Christmas period as it runs the risk of more unwanted cats being turfed out when not wanted.

I shall be back over the rescue on Wednesday and hopefully get some more photos to post up of our little furry friends:}

Looking forward to more posts

I'm a real softie at heart and to see our furry friends (cats and dogs) finding a loving home makes my day :}

Hopefully will have some more photos Wednesday Ray:}

Don't forget to post some pictures of your furry friends up in Pets Corner ;)

Forgot to post this one of Poppet the other day.

She has been with us a while now and is very timid but does like being stroked.

She will ideally need to be homed in a house without children or other pets where she can get some one on one contact with her new owner(s):}

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pshoxcdtqi.jpg

Wow, Poppet is beautiful. My wife Den also spent an hour looking through every entry of this thread last night just like Ray55 and she loved every single picture, especially the kitten that became your avatar. You do such a wonderful job Jeff that brings so much pleasure to so many fellow cat lovers alike and I look forward to the next batch. If only we were closer we would happily help promote the rescue centre in the same way I help promote our local vets. I have the club sticker one side of the rear screen and Seadown Vets the other.

A couple of new arrivals :}

Great piccies as usual bud.

Thanks Andy, as always it's a pleasure to take the photos and get to play with the cats as well:}

I would have a house full if I was in your position mate, your will power must be strong :bowdown:

Good morning Jeff, thanks for posting up the photos of the rescue. Nothing what I had expected, clean and warm looking. I hope that people reading about the work you do as volunteers will take the opportunity to help out by making a donation. Every pound goes to saving a cats life, for a better tomorrow. It is heart warming to see the photos Jeff. Please do keep posting :)

Thanks Phil,

When Ros and I first went to the rescue all of the Pens were wooden construction.

Over the years they have gradually been replaced by the Upvc units that you see today.
These are much easier maintenance and also easier to clean and keep hygiene standards up.

All of the pens have doors on the individual units that have cat flap access back into the cats main area and have either heat pads or tubular heaters in them so the cats can keep nice and warm and out of the wind should they choose :}

All donations helped to upgrade the living quarters for our guests and continue to pay for the food, veterinary bills and all other ongoing expenses.

We are always grateful to any donations given either in money, cat food or unwanted re saleable items for the charity shop:bowdown:

It's a damn good job you're at t'other end o' t'country, otherwise I would be sneaking in and alleviating you of a few furballs!

Got six plus the shop cat Andy;):eek:

That's the idea;):D:getmecoat:

Seriously though, if you are thinking of adopting a rescue cat get in touch with your local PDSA or Cats Protection League as there's plenty of animal shelters all over the country that have cats looking for new Humans to share their lives with:}

Didn't take my camera yesterday but Lamp Shade has now had her stitches out and lost the collar ;)

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psyyvhqd0e.jpg

Well done Jeff for all your good work you do.

We Th wife and I have just spent a good half an hour or so viewing your delightful friends.

We have had many cats that latch onto us.. my wife mainly (for some reason they carnt resist her). Boots our cat came one day for th first time suffering from a very nasty feral nature.:eek: Took 2 years before he decided not to hit us any more (claws out!!!) Had him 8 years now. A lot of effort for so little return but hes worth it. You can pick him up now but wont stay on our knees. Love him to bits though.

Looks can be deceiving...!

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...1&d=1424000135

He looks a cracking character, lovely photo:) funny for all their faults and sometimes aloof nature they have a way of endearing themselves on to us:}

Totally gorgeous Jeff

Which one.....me or the cat?:eek::D:getmecoat:

Or are you referring to Phil's cat :)

We do have one new arrival at the rescue this week, lovely big tabby boy:}
Only had my phone with me but will take some proper photos this week;)

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psge983lnh.jpg

Sorry Jeff, you and Lampshade

Me as well......result :eek::}

This is why lampshade had her collar on.

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pshxcpeuvy.jpg

She arrived at the Vets as a stray brought in after a road traffic accident.

No microchip and no notifications have come in for a lost calico cat.
Her tail had to be amputated but she is doing fine without it and now had her stitches removed.
She really is a lovely cat and hopefully will find a loving home soon:}

Poor Girl but so glad she is doing well. My wife is thinking about a Maine Coon that needs a new home. She is 3.5 years old and we will find out more later when the lady at the vets ringing her.

Lovely looking cats......nice and big as well:}
You'll need to brush up ( pun intended ) on your grooming skills;)

My cat Murphy was a rescue cat, best thing I ever did.

Cheers Jeff but thats Den's department. Just concerned that being 3.5 she might dominate our 3 being so big

They are great aren't they, I couldn't imagine going home without them there!
Although the soft furnishings may be a little less tattered and torn:eek:

Lol that's true, we got a new suite and now he pulls himself along the carpet by digging his flipping claws into it and all the while giving me a look like "look what I'm doing dad" grrrr lol

It doesn't matter how big a cat scratching post you give them, nothing beats the carpet, sofa, curtains and wallpaper:eek::duh:

This is the worst of our lot for destruction of furnishings:eek:
She's also the youngest which may explain it !

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps3cfhol79.jpg

You need to clear out the water trough Cliff, it's got things growing in it:eek:;):getmecoat:

She was, then a bird came into the garden and got her attention! Didn't catch it though (thankfully). :}

Must be hard working there - I'll bet you get very attached to all the residents. I take my hat off to you Sir (or at least, I would if I had one).

Cliff

It's very hard not bringing them all home;)

Although Molly, Jo Jo, Cubby, Milly and Fliss out of our cats did come from Crescent Cat Rescue:}

In general, how/why do they get to be in the home? Are they unwanted (!) pets, or are do they tend to be kittens?

Cliff

A mixture of un-neutered cats sprogging off unwanted kittens, people's change in circumstances, strays with no microchip, cats abondened at the front door of the rescue in the middle of the night and so on!

It's a never ending conveyer belt, as soon as you re home one another arrives to take their place.

My one bit of advice to everyone on here is to make sure your cats ( and dogs ) are microchipped.

All animals that come to us are scanned and if a chip is found then we set the wheels in motion to contact the owner whom's details are on the chip.
Equally if you move ( a very stressful time for cats and the most likely time for them to run off ) make sure you notify the microchip company and update your contact details.

Many, many cats get reunited with their owners due to micro chipping and even if the worse happens and your cat/dog gets killed, if the council retrieve it or its handed in to a veterinary practice it will be scanned and at least you get closure .

Some good advice there Jeff, and something I've never given thought to if I'm honest. I'll have to break the bad news to Jones that she'll be having a visit to the vets very shortly.

Thanks,

Cliff

It's such a quick and simple procedure he/she won't know it's even been done.

Best of all for me is I now have a micro chip reading cat flap that reads their chip and only lets my cats in;):D

Some more great pics there Jeff, those two gingers are adorable! With regard to micro-chipping ours were done as kittens, and we have a flap that recognises them. Good point about people moving home and updating the chip - something I would not always think about.
Les

I'm loving that! I wonder if there's any scope for chipping us, so our front doors, and cars recognise us. If it's possible, I'm sure Sean will sort something! :D:D

Cliff

Same tech as used in contact less payment cards etc so why not,
Big brother could be watching your every move then;):eek:

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c4...ys/catlets.jpg

This little cat delivered 4 kittens a few days ago, then yesterday 2 donkeys arrived from the donkey rescue just south of Nairobi. They both look quite young. We will do our best to get them back in tip top form :}

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c4...0donkeys-1.jpg

Lovely photos Phil, thanks for sharing :bowdown:
Mum and Cubs look georgous and the donkeys remind me of Baby Jesus and the stable in Bethlehem:}

Oh my , just how tiny are those kittens. Great photos as usual Phil, thanks for sharing.

Makes you want to snuggle up with them, very cosy and contented they look:}

They are Jeff, so much so that one of them keeps farting:eek:

You've not been feeding them heart have you?;):drool4:

Funny you should say that:getmecoat: They only had half each. :D:D

Coolcat...... all i can say is i am glad that them pictures were took last year,!! :eek: I went all clucky over that first pic!! how cute are they... :o

Thanks Marie,

It's a never ending procession though, we are mostly full of resisdents looking for their forever homes all year round:eek:

The last photos were taken on Sunday, we will be over again this weekend and there are some new admissions arriving.

Two of our older residents have been homed this week so that is good news and I'm sure they will settle into their new homes well:}

The puddy tat in the very first picture is still with us .
She came in as an abondened kitten and had cat flu.
Bianca is now a permanant resident with the cat rescue and has many friends there to play with ;)

This is a picture of her last week...

No prizes for guessing who the black n white one reminds me of........................that tortoiseshell looks a lot like my old one

His name is Bumfluff and he is a resident at the rescue.
He's a bit of a porker and does love his food......cat after my own heart;)

Which one?

Black n White ;):}

Poor Bianca looks a bit snotty?

Murphy in his usual mode

She had cat flu when she was a kitten and has various complications from having that.
One of which is runny eyes and sneezes and also it has affected her growth.
This is why she is a resident and won't be rehomed, in all likelihood she will not make old bones as her immunity is not great .
What we make sure of is that she has the best life she can have and to make sure she never suffers :}

Now that is what you call a 'good life';)

:bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::bowd own::bowdown: To all that helps in the Cat Rescue Home.
Bianca is so cute :luvya:

Quick photo.....
New arrivals for spring;)
Born a few days ago here at the rescue.

Is that last one a russian blue Jeff?;)

The lesser feathered variety ;):D

He lives on the farm that backs onto the rescue and has developed a liking for cat biscuits :drool4:;)

Our resident cats get on fine with him and they sit sunbathing with him on the pen roofs:}
