Periodically I wonder what his life was like with whoever had him
initially. I wonder what name they gave him and how he was treated. I guess I'm lucky. I know my cats histories. All of my cats were once wanted then unwanted. One became unwanted when he clawed the furniture and the persons other cats. Another was unwanted when she got pregnant with kittens. Another was unwanted because he sprayed. Here are their previous histories. http://www.mary.cc/boots/history.htm http://www.mary.cc/patches/history.htm http://www.mary.cc/mimi/ |

I'm almost sure that Ripley belonged to a couple of elderly brothers who
lived across the road from me. He turned up about a month after one of them died, and a couple of months before the other one moved into a care home. I think the one who died was the cat lover, and he got thrown out when he died. He certainly knew the area, and was familiar with my other cats. I've got a full history for Cav, which is great, I know that he was never ill treated, just unwanted. He started life as an unwanted kitten, and was given to a pet shop. He doesn't seem to be too traumatised, so I assume that he was bought quite quickly. On his vaccination certificate, it gives his age as 9 weeks, and his owners as the pet shop. He was called Thumper then. He was bought by an elderly lady, who died when he was twelve to eighteen months old. She was the one who named him McCavity Her son took her four young cats / kittens in, although he already had four cats of his own. Late last year, he realised that eight cats were too many, and signed his mother's four over to Cats Protection for adoption. Cav was the last of the four to be adopted. His fosterer is a good friend of mine Jeanette |
