Hi.
Early last year I had to let my beloved 16/17 year old Jack Russell go to my ex wife because it would not of been fair on keeping her home all day by herself whilst I'm at work..It was a hard decision as i knew from then on, I would never see the dog again ,but I had to put the dog's wellbeing before my feelings. For a good few months the house was really quiet ,now it was minus a wife and dog , then one evening this cat appeared from no where.
I'm not really a cat lover , but this cat was looking a right old sorry sight. He was soaking wet, undernourished, and was in pretty bad condition. I couldn't just turf him out ,and he's now taken residence with me. He's now put some decent bulk on him and after an intense treatment to get rid of his friends (fleas) he,s now a different cat.
As far as cat's go , he's got some funny habits. On a Friday night he usually follows me down to the pub. No matter what I do to send him back he just ignores me and follows me to the pubs door or enjoys an evening in the beer garden with me. He's very placid and has never shown any aggression ,but he's a real fiesty bugger..I've lost count of rats, squirrels, and pigeons he's caught and dropped off by the back door step.Tonight was quite funny. I called him back and his ears are pin sharp. I called once and could hear him in the far distant meowing just letting me know his coming. He appeared out if the woods and then jumped over a series of garden fences. The last garden though was being patrolled by the neighbours dog. The cat put the dog straight though and gave him a good hiding before coming in for his dinner. I've grown quite attached to him now and couldn't imagine him not being around.
