    Good luck with today Martin. We had a home visit too and she said it was fine, as soon as she got over the front door threshold.


    We kept her in for 8 weeks, as we were told she was a stray found nearby and may have absconded if we let her out too early. She was climbing the walls, but it did work out fine, she goes out, annoys the neighbours and then leeches all the heat from me in bed at night.


    No not a Range Shareholder, but found they had a great range of stuff for pets and seemed good prices. A lot cheaper than pets at home.


    Tip for you, buy a Da Bird, or an equivalent toy. He will freak out and when we use it, she gets knackered and has less energy to bring presents in the house. She is normally found zonked out on a pillow in my bedroom, after a 10 minute play. Just make sure, you give him a treat after the play, as it will say to him, he has caught something and has eaten it.

    let him sniff and explore, he might hide a bit and come out during the night when it's quiet.
    Cats don't have owners - they have staff!! :D:p
