all cute looking things, wish they could stay as kittens forever

They're not so bad when they are all grown up, they go out and bring you back presents :eek::D
Mouse Pie anyone;)

If I had the room, I would have them all :D

It's a struggle for me every week to not come back with another one;)
Got five at home and two shop cats so that's enough:eek:

you should hear my cat when you aren't paying any attention to her, she yowl's very loudly

I know what you mean, got 4 cats and a dog, but if I could I would have lots more of both.

Shame about the distance my wife would have the 4th one down without blinking an eye..... shame you're not going to Harewood... would have taken it off you

If you are thinking of adopting a rescue cat or kitten, get in touch with your local Pdsa or Cats Protection and they will let you know where your local rescue centres are :}
I suspect just like our rescue centre at the moment, it's always full as there are unfortunately so many unwanted cats and kittens!
There are vouchers available from various animal charities to get your cats neutered for around £10.00 but still peeps don't bother.
Makes me mad but that's a whole other thread for another part of the forum!

Here's another photo of him...

Stop it now!!!!!!!!!!!


:drool4:

Cute little blighters ;):D

The little darlings Jeff beautifully photographed, lovingly cared for by Ros, Carol and yourself - all volunteers at the rescue. I hope someone makes a donation :)

Thanks for your kind words and all your continued support Phil,
It is much appreciated :bowdown:

If anyone would like to help out however small, click on the Crescent Cat Rescue link at the bottom of my signature.
This helps with the ongoing costs for food and veterinary care.
Many thanks :}

No problem Jeff. It might help the cause if you could tell us the history behind the cats and the kittens, as I know it is not just room and board or tender loving care which keeps them going. When you have time Jeff, please do say.

If you go onto our website and hover the mouse over the pictures on the adoption page Ros writes a description of the cat or kitten, any details of how they came to be with us and their temperament ( good with children, other pets etc )
Usually when I take the photos they have only just arrived and I don't have that information as Ros compiles it later when the pictures are uploaded onto the website and the details have come in.
You guys get a first look, usually before they are on the website;)
Most of the kittens to be honest are born at the rescue because Mum got pregnant and the owner then decides to give Mum up for adoption along with the unborn litter!
Please anyone reading this take a look at the website as it will give you an insight into how things work at the rescue, plus you get to look at cute Puddy Tats:}

If I look at the cute puddy tats I will want them all...

That's the idea, go on......take a peek ;):D

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps8cuvyrwl.jpg

Haha, I might take a look but will have to figure out how without the mouse so can't click order or w/e :D

Only took a couple today as I was to busy playing with them all instead:D

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pszv6fdroh.jpg

just looking at the cute little things and can't help thinking that Maurice should've been called lemmy (see if anyone can guess why I think that)

http://www.crescentcatrescue.org.uk/...4610614745.swf

The Ace of Spades indeed on that hooter:D

Yep, got it in one :D

One of the little balls of fluff has now come home with us ;)

You never disappoint Jeff. I love the way you brought out the colours of the kittens by carefully using the backgrounds :bowdown:

Thanks for those kind words Phil,
It really is a pleasure taking them :}
Just a few more, this is our new arrival at home Molly who is getting to know her new brother Jo Jo;)

Loving your pictures m8. we have 3 cats, think they are better thought of than me in the house:D

Sent a small donation meantime m8.

Mick

Hi Mick,

That is very kind of you Sir:bowdown:
It all helps in keeping the cats fed, watered and looked after whilst 'hopefully' having a short stay with us until finding their new humans to go home with:}

Some great shots there Jeff. Also some fantastic subjects/models. Keep them coming.

Thanks Paul,

It can be hard getting creative in a six foot by four foot pen sometimes:eek:
Depending on the cat I can let some out into the run which makes my life a bit easier;)
Makes a change from racing cars though:D

Looking forward to seeing some of your photos again as they really do inspire me to get out there and try and be a bit more creative:bowdown:



Edit....
Only an iPhone snap from Ros but it's the first photo of Jo Jo and Molly together!

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

That is just brilliant. Thanks for sharing

You looking at me.....do you want some?
Let's 'av it then:D

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psga6utnlc.jpg

You talking to me?

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pshceqqg2c.jpg

We're all friends really!

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psgy3qkdiw.jpg

How do you get them to pose for you like that

My, what big eyes you have:}

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps2sa7l3fa.jpg

Super glue:eek::D:getmecoat:

Seriously, sitting back and waiting for the right moment.
Letting them smell and get used to the camera equipment so they become familiar with it and also the sound of the shutter actuations .
A dangly toy and a laser dot can be used to get their attention as well;)
Mostly though it is making a fuss of them so they see you as a friend then sitting back and waiting.....patience is a virtue so they say:D

Exotic big ball of fluff :D

Excellent photos. Thanks for sharing them :bowdown:

Your more than welcome, it all helps draw attention to the Cat Rescue and who can resist a few cuddly moggys anyhow;)

This is Zig....or Zag, depends who's calling him!
He is our Top Cat resident who runs a tight ship.....

Stealth cat in full chameleon mode!

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps9rktka3t.jpg

So when you say top resident do you have some there permanently?

We do indeed, some cats that come in to us have social issues or have recovered from medical conditions etc. The policy of the rescue is to give every cat a chance, even those that may not be suitable for re homing under normal circumstances:}

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psceew82mn.jpg

That gave me an immediate unintentional belly laugh......:D :D :D
Carole said I could have my pair for a third off the donation, but looking at all the good work that goes on there in my one and only visit was very impressive. Toca and Tilly came litter trained, full of health (on the best food for them) and well cared for, not to mention wormed and flead. Almost priceless. Needless to say I didn't her up on the offer;):bowdown:

Many thanks for the kind words Jay:}

One of the funniest things we get told is from the volunteers who help run the Crescent Cat Rescue charity shop in Walton On The Naze.
Peeps go in there and see something priced at say 50p then proceed to try and get it cheaper by stating 'it's only a charity shop isn't it!':eek:
Unbelievable some people:o

Yep Jeff, there are some tight fisted emotionally challenged people out there alright:( Perhaps a sign outside saying 'NOT A CAR BOOT SALE' should do the trick;):D
Hope Molly and Jo Jo are doing good. Some nice pictures of them:}

They are getting on great guns Jay, how's your pair?:}

Very happy in their new home it would seem. I feel like the pied piper with them following me around. They get plenty of attention and have their own obvious personalities:}

Hope that new smart phone is taking plenty of photos of them;):}

one for you jeff
 

just come across some old photos.

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...d4874a6be8.jpg

Gorgeous, is he/she a Bengal ? :}

Our two BC's go absolutely bananas when there is a cat about, yet whilst in a bit of a lean to at the back of a restaurant, there was a cat laid in a baby buggy not more than a foot from their noses, for the best part of 10 minutes, with neither bothering.

At home, there is a cat which taunts them both from just across the street. This evening I especially took notice...

There they were yapping away at it from behind the gates, there the cat was calmly sat on the opposite pavement just staring at them, which I've seen it doing often. This evening it sat there unmoving for 20 minutes.

yes jeff spot on .
the most odd ball cat I have ever come across.

They are very vocal cats, we have had a few at the rescue before;)

I must have a secret bengal then or she's lost her spots/stripes as she is very vocal :D :getmecoat:

Very loud cats. And not frighted of anything.
The one in the photo is a male. Seen him attack dogs.
Gsd that went for him cat didn't run but went for the dog. And the dog lost
Had the police come round. Bloke reported it.
Also very clever cats. Had to change some taps in the house as he would turn taps on if they was the lever type.

A few more from my visit yesterday afternoon:}

Does the moglet with extra toes have them on each foot or just the one in the picture ??

Both front paws, can't remember and haven't got a photo of his back paws:}

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psuteox1en.jpg

A lot of feral cats have extra digits due to inter breeding.
He and family aren't Feral in this case ;)

Good fighting paws:cool:

Great pics Jeff. Even though with my two I always want another one after looking at your pictures.:}

I would advocate getting a cat to anyone that is curious / interested, courtesy of Jeff or other cat rescue centres. They have calmed me down no end;):D

Good job you haven't got wallpaper Jay:eek:
Ask Colin about it;)
Then they wouldn't calm you down:D:getmecoat:

He looks as if he's got thumbs in the photo. :D

He's like the cat off the original Cravendale milk advert:D

http://youtu.be/bnpwqjHK2Xs

some good photos jeff.
am waiting to get one of mine to sit on my air con.
so I can put it up on the site as the one and only cool cat.:D:D

I do have that kitchen paint that dries like a rubber skin. Knocked it at some point causing a little split. Toca took great joy in pealing the paint back until I got the sandpaper out and smoothed it flat to the wall (the paint, not the cat):D

Tell me the story Colin if you are out there;):D

Some new arrivals and a few longer term puddy tats looking for new homes:}

http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/...psa1cc0312.jpg

Did the kitten with the ace of spades marking get rehomed in the end. I could just picture that one in a side car of a large bike

http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/...psf0fa3991.png

:D :cool:

Lemmy;) he's a fully grown cat but he's still with us at the moment.
Good news is that Toca and Tilly's sibling is going to a new home this week.
Not Mum though so we will still be looking for a home for Mum:}

That's good news Jeff but poor old mum :sad3:

Any money you like Mum will be easier to home now.
Not everyone wants to take on a kitten and she has a lovely nature to her so I'm sure she will find the right home;)

Here's a photo of Lemmy ( real name Maurice ) taken today ;)

Stop it jeff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You love it really;):D

Fantastic Photos Jeff :bowdown: :D, I'm glad you're 160 Miles from me, I'm trying to resist the urge to get another cat, had one just disappear 10 years ago (never did find him) another was put down in 2009 and the last was put down last year. I find the heartache that comes with losing them unbearable.

Maybe one day though....

With the heartache comes great joy though.

What's the saying.......'Better to have loved and lost than never loved at all':}

When you are ready the best thing you could do is contact your local PDSA or Cats Protection League to find where your local rescue centres are:}
There's always more cats than there are homes for them unfortunately!

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps1g3ilur0.jpg

They are so cute and gorgeous.

They are indeed:}
It is a struggle not to come home with more every week:D

I can fully understand that Jeff. When my wife goes to the Vets to pay a bill for stuff done to the horse they bring out cats and kittens for Den to see in the hope that she will take home another. We've already had 3 from them, 2 from CPL and 1 from Blue Cross. You would not believe the cost of the pet insurance each month.

.....and they say our cars are expensive to run:eek:;)
It is not cheap pet ownership, I guess that's why we are seeing more and more puddy tats handed in to the rescue:shrug:

Exactly right. If insurance was more affordable then there would be less unwanted pets. Our oldest cat Smokey is 18 and has numerous problems and is one 4 different tablets a day and some of those are expensive and we pay MoreThan £52.00 per month for her alone. We dont think twice about paying it as she is part of the family but it is not cheap.

I sometimes wonder if people realise the cost involvement in having pets.
Just like children, if you can't afford their care and welfare should you really be having them.
There is no state 'pot' to pay for them unlike kids:o

A few people get upset when they find out that the adoption process is quite involved and does ask questions of the persons suitability to home a cat!
There are very good reasons for this though and it is the charities duty of care and responsibility to that animals continued welfare.

I agree whole heartedly. At the end of the day it is the wellbeing of the Cat or Dog that is at stake. Must be why we have so many.

Instead of paying for insurance, why not put the money away each month in an isa or similar, if (Hopefully) Nothing happens you have a nice purse to collect ;)

Now there's no need for any of that sensible talk Andy;):D

Good pics once again:}

I want the multi coloured brown cat and the cool coloured looking black and white coloured new arrival. Now if you can just sort me out from a flat to a larger house . . .;)

Hope they all find new homes soon!

How is Toca and Tilly's mum doing with the kittens she has adopted, Well I hope:}

Hi Jay,

This is April, Toca and Tilly's Mum:}
She is taking charge of two adorable Ginger little 'un's at the moment :bowdown:

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

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psp5dzsnhb.jpg

Thanks for the pics and update Jeff:bowdown::}

Your very welcome Jay,

Not sure if we are going this afternoon, if I do I'll be sure to take some more photos;)

A few taken last Sunday ;)

That last picture, such a beautiful kitten. A real time waster if ever there was one. Thanks for sharing such delights with us Jeff.

I have some more from yesterday....watch this space as they say;):D

Just one to tease whilst I upload more from my camera:}

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

I shall be waiting with great anticipation Jeff.

A very cute tease indeed.
My wife says she wants to load up the car with wet and dry cat food and bring it over to your rescue centre. I did point out its a 360 mile round trip and that it would need to be arranged but she wants to do it at some point. We are always limited for time what with the tablet regime for 2 of the ladies and a horse that needs putting to bed but she will get her wish.

That's a very generous gesture from the both of you,

If you do decide to do a 'road trip' and want to say hello at the same time Ros and I are at the rescue centre on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons usually:}

Here's another Ginger who came in with his brother ( not Ginger ) they are both a bit confused at the moment but will feel better after a few days of being made a fuss of!

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psxj6didmh.jpg

Wow, he's gorgeous even if a tad confused but that wont last for long once he and his brother know they are loved and will be looked after.

Here is his brother:}

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...ps7ezfwgzf.jpg

On that note, I have a story to tell:o
I will tell it on Saturday when I have the full facts when we are back at the rescue!

In the meanwhile , just a couple more to tug at the heart strings :}

Lovely pics as usual Jeff and cute to boot but wouldn't a small surgical procedure both in dogs and cats help to reduce numbers of strays and neglected animals. You do an excellent job trying to remove pets I know and its very laudable but control might be a better solution don't you think. Shame yo didn't make the Star meeting it was a great day and when Stu turned up in Alison the day was complete, perhaps next month no littlebchef sadly but the food is good or bring own tuckbox

Been too long see you

Mike

Not sure I follow you Mike as all the adult cats that come to us are spayed/neutered as a matter of course unless already done before reaching us.
Kittens can't be done as they ideally need to be at least six months old but it is always the rescue centres policy to home cats responsibly and to explain the benefits of neutering to people.
The thing is though, we end up with as many as we do because there are so many people who take on animals with no financial abilities for their welfare.
Then when the cat gets pregnant it ends up being handed in to us because the owner can't cope/afford the veterinary bills etc:o
The government don't hand out welfare money for pets!

The other thing that drives us all mad is those breeding cats ( not registered ) and selling the kittens on Facebook!
Half of these are in-bred and come with their own particular health issues:mad:

That's what we are up against each and every day I'm afraid!

Sorry I couldn't make the meet as I was working, next month I'm at the Kings Lynn meet :)

very well explained Jeff.

Just needs shades and a Harley and that cool cat is ready to go . . .

http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/...ps86655cb6.png

:cool:;):D

Good call Paul;). Ignorance no doubt!!!:mad:

I'm all ears Saturday then Jeff;)

Splendid photography Jeff, highly recommended to help wind down from the day, your photos and our furry friends...therapeutic stress busters:}

The one under the arch doesn't look impressed:D love the one of "all the family"

Thanks Phil,it was rather challenging getting any decent photos this afternoon!
The heavens opened and it went rather dark so the lighting wasn't good;)

Hope your flight home was a good one Sir:}

Is this one watching some dodgy sci-fi thing from the sixties with the swirling patterns on the screen?

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psz1eu2f75.jpg

He's only just come in and not yet settled in, can be very traumatic for them and others of course think its wonderful after having a bad time of it before arriving:}

We have one boy who is very handsome but really not ready for being photographed.
His owner passed away suddenly at home and you can see that he doesn't understand what's happened to him.
Hopefully Wednesday when I'm over I'll be able to bond with him and gain his trust, then get some photos of him:}

Mesmerised by the pre flash I reckon :D
Or shocked amazement at how I got my bulk into his little pen;)

Reminds me of someone:shrug:

Thanks Jeff, I had a lovely flight and just winding down. I don't know how you manage, as it is not so easy getting the right shot with the young'uns keeping still, although there is a lot to be said for catching them in action - all natural, you have the eye and they know it ...It's nearly 1 a.m and I will close :)

I can see the similarity;)
He hasn't got any wallpaper in his pen though:eek:

Night Phil, give Jessica Ros and my love :}

None in his mouth either:D

Off to the cat rescue again now, more photos to follow ;):D

Remember this little fella :}

This is the cat whom's owner has passed away.
He's a lovely boy and I'm sure given a bit of time he will gain his confidence back :)

I always enjoy your updates Jeff and it makes me look around my flat wondering if I had more space ;):cool:

Thanks Jay,

Went yesterday so will upload the photos tonight, watch this space;)

Thanks Jay,

They are such wonderful pictures Jeff, they make you want all of them. I have some American friends in Virginia who lost their cat recently and are wanting another so I emailed Jim a link to this thread to make them see what they are missing out on. It's kinda worked as once he retires early next year they are moving to Fort Worth and I have been told that the first thing they are going to do is go to the SPCA and get another kitten.

Great pics as always Jeff, bloomin good job you are miles away!

Thanks guys:}

Will be over there after work this afternoon so more photos to come;)

Only a couple from yesterday as we only had one new arrival:}

I spent my time playing with the puddy tats instead;)

This is the new arrival ( Minnie ) who is a nightmare to try and photograph as she just wants to jump on you :D

Hi Jeff.

Please smile as if you are enjoying these little cuties. LOL!

Julien

He had just blown off in my face:eek::D:getmecoat:

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psq5jhfpje.jpg

Shall hopefully have some more photos tomorrow guys and girls:}

I look forward to seeing them Jeff

More kittens have arrived at the rescue!
Love them to bits but you do dispair sometimes:eek:

This is Ash, he has been the subject of other photos on here.
He's named Ash as he is partial to tree climbing, in this case a Pear tree;)

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...pssejq9ug3.jpg

Great pic:bowdown:

Thanks Paul,

Which one ?;):D

The first one Jeff. I'm sure it wasthe only one at the time :duh:

Hi Paul,

I was adding them one at a time as I was posting from my phone Sir:}

He is one of the younger cats/kittens that is allowed out to play;)

He does love a good tree:D

http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/u...psfyob8k2w.jpg

nice pic jeff.
love photos like that.
wish I had more time to get out and about with my set up

Not my greatest shot Steve,
Missed the focus on it as I have focused on the branch just in front of little Ash:duh:

Will be a flying visit to the cat rescue this afternoon as I'm going out this evening to meet up with some other members on here for dinner:drool4:

I'll see what photos I can grab in my quick visit;)

A few from this Saturday:}

Left my camera gear at home and took the photos using my new iPhone 6.

Can't get very creative with it yet but it was very snappy at achieving focus and exposing the shots well;)
