    So pleased for you :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    He is still very clingy which is lovely but I am going to call the vet to check if we need to bring him in. Thomas got scared when we brought him in I think smelled different. He seems fine with him now gave him a lick before breakfast yesterday.

    Cannot believe how lucky we were to get him back

    Jack is turning into a gorgeous MC - his breeder will be very happy with him.

    Just come back from the vets he is now 4.1 kilo so that is a loss of 1.1 kilo (scary). They thinks he ok but we need to watch that he doesnt drink lots and they have given him antibiotics as he has infected glans.

    He does look lovely but will look even better when he is back to normal weight and are less smelly.

    Poor thing - lots of small meals would be good. You might want to consider increasing his wet food for a while.

    Done that indeed they normally share 1 pouch twice a day but as he has been asking for more he has had more. He is normally more into his Royal Canin Maine coon kibble but that's certainly chaned. Off to pets at home to get some treats and nice meaty wet food plus a thank you card to the people who found him.

    Thanks to all the lurkers please don't stay lurking join in.

    Thought we had lost Jack again this morning as he did not appear at breakfast. Suddenly about 11am I hear a russle in my large cupboard and there he was. He has now had something to eat (only wanted the posh Encore stuff we got him yesterday) so all good. He had been sick so if he is sick again I might stop the antibiotics on the advice of the vet. Hopefully he just overate yesterday.

    Plans for today:
    Zumba - done
    cardboard boxes to dump - done
    Garage sort out
    General tidy up in office done

    Think that will do

    Also sharpened the knives so not to unhappy to leave the garage.
