Knew I shouldn't have just popped into the cat rescue centre!

oops a daisy, just gained another cat!
I've been thinking about getting another for a while and just dropped off some beds the cats were not using and asked advice about whether another cat would be suitable for me and my current moggys, ended up reserving one and I pick him up in 2 weeks :D

he's about 7 weeks old and the only longhaired one in there, almost all were black and white and he's very similar to my current moggy, just fluffier!
Oh and he's the one in front not the photobomber behind!:rotfl:

    Beautiful, they all are. I have 6 cats, 4 rescues and two who couldnt stay with their owner as he was moving into a private let and they werent allowed to go with him under his tenancy agreement.

    Hope they all get a home soon.

    How cute! That is the main reason I avoid cat sanctuaries - I wouldn't be able to reisit the little moggies charms and would end up having to adopt one!

    He's called colin, doesn't quite go with olly and molly but think it's quite a cute if unusual name :) Still need a homecheck first but lady at the centre said it was more of a formality than anything so should be fine :)

    Oh he is a sweetie! How could anyone resist that little face?

    You should read the thread "so poor I can't even pay attention" as the lady writer also has a cat called Colin who keeps us amused with his antics.

    Enjoy your little guy - I am so jealous!
