Murdock

Murdock




In the last 24 hours he has successfully trained his owners
to total obedience to his every whim! Despite providing
a comfortable basket for him he prefers our bed as you can see!
He still takes the occasional swipe at us to keep us in line,
but seems very happy and contented.
Finally after a long time, Murdock has found
the perfect family to love him & good
luck to him and his new owners.

Mac & Roxy

Mac

Mac was in the Centre for about 8 months
because he had an armpit injury; after trying
for a long time to help it heal we
went up to Stapely Grange
RSPCA in Chesire for him to have an operation
which has worked brilliantly.
He is now at home with us enjoying life
catching mice in the forest.
Roxy
We adopted Roxy a couple of
weeks after we had Mac.
They get on so well he is like her dad.
First of all we fostered Roxy
when she was about a week old
with her mum, brothers & sisters
as there was no room in the Centre for them.
We fell in love with her and decided
to adopt her.

From

The Stevens Family.

Hi i would like to let you all know that Buttons the kitten who is now
called Socks is being well looked after.
when he first got home with me and my partner he had a good explore
around the house and he has settled in well from day 1he loves a fuss and he loves playing.
His best toy is a mouse with a bell on it as you can see in one of the pictures.
he has his own little routine he wakes up around 8.30 am and he has a play of his toys for a bit.Then at 9.am he gets ready by his bowl to have his food then he does his business.
he then has a play again.when he gets tired he likes to go to sleep on the sofa next to
me its like he knows the times of his feed. he has his food at 9.am,1.pm and 4.pm he
has 3 naps a day. He sometimes goes to bed at 9.pm on week days and on the weekends
he goes to bed around 11.pm he likes to have a soft toy in bed with him everynight when he sleeps alone. he follows me around the house and he climes on everything he is a lovely kitten and me and my partner loves him to bits he is part of the family now.

He has new toys to play with nealy every day. when we first went to the cat adoption we fell in love with him at first sight. i named him Socks because he has 4 white paws like if he is wearing socks. we would like to thank all the workers in Llys Nini for letting us have himSocks will call in soon to see u all as he has his next Check ups this week.thanks again

Maggie (was Geri)

Maggie
I thought it was about time i wrote to updated you on liitle ginger Maggie (was originally Geri).We adopted her at the beginning of this year, as she looked such a poor, miserable little thing. She was very stressed out at Llys nini, and would pace in her pen all day, only allowing a little fuss befoe she made it clear she wanted no more and hiss and scratch!!

When we got home she had a bit of an explore, and within about 20 minutes she was climbing all over us wanting to sleep on our laps! All her stessed behaviour disapperared almost straight away, and when in the house, she is the most affectionate playfull little cat i have ever known.

She will follow me around the house, and jump up for a cuddle as soon as i sit down. we let her outside a couple of months after having her and that is when her crazy side will come out, as she will size up anything that moves for an attack!!- however big her prey is!!

We could'nt imagine life without her now, and it just shows how much difference a loving home can make to the life of a poor little thing like her.

Bella


Bella



My name is Bella, I’m a former cat of the month ( Oct 07/Jan 08 ). My new owners saw my picture and fell in love with me but then I disappeared from the Cat adoption list. My new family thought I’d already been homed – in fact I was very ill, I nearly died not once but twice. They were thrilled when I was posted up again and immediately came to visit me.
I have special needs ( hyperthyroidism, arthritis in my hips and backlegs ) so my new owners found out all they could about me and what I’d need. They had lost their own elderly cats a couple of years ago but felt they could give me a comfortable home for the rest of my days – however long or short that might be.


I was a little scared at first of being left alone. I’m deaf you see so I don’t know where you are if I can’t see you. I meow very loudly so you come to find me. Mum and dad quickly realised I couldn’t hear and have been really patient and understanding.

Well a year on and no-one from Llys Nini would recognise me now. I can climb and jump around – I love to skit around from the kitchen to the dining room to the lounge and back again. Mum and dad have had to clear all their bits off the dresser because I like to walk along it when they are sat at the table!

I’m like my old self again – I haven’t needed medicine for my arthritis since Easter. I like to take a walk outside for a few minutes every now and again– I even went out to look at the snow the other day. Mum or dad even stay with me, they know I can’t hear danger.

I still need to take tablets twice a day and I sometimes go off my food but since coming to my new home I feel like a kitten again. The children are lovely they give me cuddles and let me sleep in their laps though they don’t like it when I walk across their laptop!

Mum and dad tell me they had some concerns at first about taking in an elderly special needs cat but now they say they worried needlessly – something about receiving lots of love in return, I can’t make it out, I just want food and a warm snuggle – not a lot to ask and I’ve got it by the bucketful.

I’m really one very lucky kitty but then they say they are very lucky to have such a pretty and gentle kitty like me too. I wanted to let others, who might be worried about looking after older cats or special needs ones, know that its not so bad really. We just want a little tasty food 3 or 4 times a day, occasional treats, a warm lap and in return we will show you our love all day every day.

Picco (formerly Casey)















Hi there,

We have had Picco (Formerly known as Casey) now for around a year, and have been very late getting in touch with how she is doing....(Oh dear) She was very scared when first coming here, but soon settled in well, she has so much personality and keeps me and my partner on our toes! One of her most favourite things is to sneak under our duvet and have a good snooze in the warmth! After loosing my old cat to a brain tumour I didn't think I could fall for another cat, but she really is adorable! Many thanks to all the workers in Llys Nini, may the other cats be lovingly homed like Picco!

Misty








My partner Martin and I adopted Misty last month, and we thought you'd like to hear how she was getting on. We're pleased to say she has settled very well in her new home and we love having her there. She's a gentle and affectionate cat who has fitted well into our domestic routine. We're out at work on weekdays, but she seems to sleep happily in her basket during the day (though she does creep onto the bed at night!) then get up ready to play when we get home. She is much more 'talkative' than our last cat used to be - we just wish we could understand more of her extensive repetoire of sounds! Here are a couple of pictures of her relaxing on the settee, and playing with her catnip mouse. Hope you like them!




Regards Helen

Pudding now known as SNOOKS!










As you can see i'm a black and white cat, aged 2 now! The grey and white cat is my adopted brother (he's a naughty boy!). I went to my new home 9th Jan '07 with my new family. I left my brothers and sister, my sister looked like my mum, tortoiseshell colour, one of my brothers was black and the other was ginger (Rhubarb, Custard and Treacle) with my name as Pudding! My new family called me Snooks, which i sometimes listen too!

In April this year I got run over and spent a week in the vets (St.James). My leg was fractured in 4 places and my pelvis was broken. The wonderful vets gave me a chance and pinned my leg (so i'm a bionic cat now, with a metal pin in my leg!!) and i am now back chasing my brother and anything that moves! I live a life of luxury, sleep, play and eat..........and have loads of attention from my family!

My family are great and spoil me with prawns and salmon on special occasions (wish that was everyday!!!) I sometimes allow my brother some!

I just want to say Thank you for everything you all done for me. If it wasn't for the dedication of everyone i met, i wouldn't be living a loving, happy life.

P.s Merry Christmas to everyone at the centre

Carling & Ellie-May











Hello to everyone at Llys Nini!

We've been meaning to e mail you for ages to let you know how Carling and Ellie May are getting on (we adopted them in March). Both are absolutely fine and loving lots of attention. We recently discovered that Carling loves to sleep on carrier bags so we have now got one in nearly every room. Ellie May was a little bit nervous at first but within a couple of days she was jumping up on our laps for a cuddle and a snooze. They are very loving towards each other and as you can tell in one of the pictures Carling loves to give Ellie a wash nearly every day (although this usually descends into a play fight!!). I have taught them how to take turns when they are given a little treat (they love ham) and they sit and wait until its their turn before jumping up to get it. Also they eat together as Carling isn't eating all of Ellie's food (we were told to watch out for this when we had them).

Hope you like the pictures (sorry it's taken a while)

Felix now Mokie!


Hello there, I just wanted to thank you for letting us adopt Felix (who we've renamed Mokie). She hid away for the first 15 minutes or so, but since then, she's been exploring the house and has otherwise been making herself very comfortable - as you can see from the attached photo!
Anyway, thanks again!
Thank you kindly and God bless,
Paul

Dusty contacts Llys Nini!





Dusty contacts Llys Nini again.

Delyth contacted my new owner, as she knew my blog had somehow got lost and all my lovely

Carers were wondering how I was settling down in my new home.





Here I am still not quite sure what whether I can tame this folks to me way thinking.

We are now at about to start the month of October, and I could not be happier. Remember the fine weather we have just had, just look at me in the garden.

I am so enjoying my new life here. My coat is soft and silky, I have put on some weight, and all I have to do is nag, and one or the other will cuddle me day or night!

Update on ginger Charlie!










Hello
We thought we'd just drop you a line to let you know how Charlie is getting on with us here in Cardiff. We adopted him on 15 February 2008. He is SUCH a character - one minute he is going mad and wide-eyed, chasing moths in the garden, and the next thing he is giving us kisses and cuddles and rolling over so we can tickle his tummy!

He is a big cat and absolutely adores his food, and enjoys sitting on the kitchen stool watching us prepare our own food!

He loves company and wants to be involved in everything, and he loves playing with his toys and chasing anything that moves - including our feet under the duvet! Considering the start he had in life, he is the most trusting and loving animal you could ever hope to meet, and we think he is absolutely beautiful. He loves to play with our other cat Neville, who unfortunately at 13 years old is a bit too dignified to play games, however Charlie keeps on trying to be his friend.

When we took Neville to the vet the other day Charlie was most distressed that he was gone, and when Neville returned and lay down on our bed to recover from his ordeal (he hates travelling in his pet carrier) we had to take Charlie up to see him, to show him that he was okay! He loves his older brother, even if his older brother doesn't realise it!

Charlie likes nothing better than to cuddle up with us, rub his face against ours and talk in his funny cat language, and he is a cat with the most wonderful, loving temperament. He is a fantastic pet, we absolutely adore him, and we are ever so grateful to you at Llys Nini for taking such good care of him whilst he was with you.

love from Lauren and Dan (and Charlie and Neville)

Tizzy and Munch

"Hello, I am Munch and I love this settee--so comfy!!"
"Hi, I'm Tizzy, but I'm not looking up 'cos I am just enjoying this lovely stretch--out on my settee. Who's settee??!!"
I just wanted to update you on how Munch and Tizzy are doing. They have settled in really well and are enjoying their new home. I have had no problems at all with them. Munch is still a bit of a rascal, but he knows who's boss. I think that's me, but sometimes he gets delusions of grandeur! Tizzy loves sitting on the Living Room window-sill, watching all that goes on in the street. They both love to cuddle up on the sofa with me, though it does get a bit crowded sometimes!
Thank you so much for allowing me to adopt these two wonderful cats. I have attached a photo of each of them, so that you can see how well they are doing.
Many thanks
Van Wells

Oliver


Hi!
Just to let you know that Flatley (now re-named as Oliver) has settled in to our home very well. We picked him up on 10th May and he settled in from day 1! The photos show him making himself comfortable on my youngest son's bed! He is a lovely cat, he loves to explore and enjoys being outside. He has a little friend, who I think is around about the same age as him and lives a couple of doors away and they are always together. He enjoys our company just as much as we enjoy his and he loves playing with the little lattice balls we bought him. He's a right David Beckham!
Just to say thank you for letting us adopt him-we feel as though we have always known him!
Regards
Angela, Mike and Alex
