Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 13, 2011 I just finished decorating my room in PS, and now I'm going to do Xavier's room and then get busy with some writing that I have been so blatantly putting off...then I have some stuff that needs doing before we go to the animal shelter tomorrow and see if the kitty I want is still there. Her name is Nele and she's a beautiful kitty. Hopefully her purrsonality (hehe) is compatable with us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lea75 0 Posted June 13, 2011 I am so full now! Had a lovely Gammon dinner, with roast potatoes, veg and cheese sauce. Not looking forward to washing the dishes now though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 13, 2011 I finished the rooms for Xavier, and now I am going to write some...I need to look for our apartment lease so I can see if we are even allowed to have a cat here. I think we are, since there are so many cats and dogs in this area, and many live in the neighboring building, which is owned by the same company. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SashaGirl 0 Posted June 14, 2011 Yvette, I hope that you find the kitty to be compatible! I miss being able to have kitties, but our daughter-in-law is deathly allergic to them. My day is starting to wind down. Only one more day with students, then 2 days to close up classsrooms and I'm done. Since my position was eliminated (budget cuts), I will be officially unemployed after Thursday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 14, 2011 Ugh, so sorry to read that. My husband had a case of stomach flu this morning. Scared the beejeebers out of me too. I thought he had the bad stuff. Thankfully, he's okay now...but that scared the living daylights out of me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SashaGirl 0 Posted June 14, 2011 Ursula, are you feeling any better? It does seem like some years people get sicker than others, and it just isn't right to be dealing with the flu this time of year!Yvette, how is your husband feeling? I survived the last day of school - and it was definitely a survival this year! The kids were all so excited and wound up. Wow! To have that much energy!

Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Hi everyone,well, I'm crushed. We went to the animal shelter to look at Nele this afternoon. They will not even consider us as adopting kitty parents. We live in the thir floor with a balcony, and she likes to go outside. So, the chances of us getting any cat while living here is slim bordering on not bloody likely.As usual, everything is riding on the 'job thing'. It's depressing for both of us.

lea75 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Why not look privately hun? You dont have to go through a rescue centre. If you have one from a kitten then you can teach it to be a house cat, Gaia's cat was a house cat until she had Molly, ask her how it was xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 15, 2011 I had my heart set on a shelter cat, but they let their cats be in and outdoor. I am worried now that if I got a cat, it might try to jump from the balcony or something. I guess the only hope now is for my hubby to find a new job and us to get out of here once and for all.

Toulouse 0 Posted June 16, 2011 Yvette, my father in law and his girlfriend had a cat, they also lived on the second or third floor and had a balcony (the cat was already a few years old), but he managed to do just fine, he went to the balcony, sat there for a few, and then asked to be left back into the apartment. I think it is great to adopt a shelter cat, but it might be a good thing to consider looking for a private adoption? I hope all goes well!I haven't been on here as much lately, but I'm studying for my finals. I did have my thesis presentation last week and all went fine (at least, that's what I understood from my professor giving me thumbs up afterwards). I am exhausted still, but am putting all my energy in this final, so I get to graduate hopefully.Hope all is well with everyone here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 16, 2011 I'm looking into a private adoption, and have gotten a lot of good suggestions from Stas as well as my friend Steffi (who knows Maine Coon breeders). I will be using their advice and adopt a kitten. Then I can teach the kitty, and not have to worry about him / her jumping off a balcony...the thing that the animal shelter was worried about. I figure that if the cat stays indoors, then there will be no danger.I just couldn't understand why an animal shelter would let all their cats outside and then say it's cruel to 'lock them in an apartment'. I read in an cat newspaper that it's sometimes better to have indoor pets, that way they don't get infecious diseases that outdoor cats get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 19, 2011 So here's the deal. Our landlord put more stipulations on us having a cat than anything I have ever seen (and I have seen a lot). So the consensus is, we're moving somewhere else before getting the kitty. Don't know where specifically, but I want to get into a place that is a bit more conscientious than the people here. Imagine not allowing a cat net on the balcony if it would protect a cat from falling three stories because they want to keep up with appearances. I can understand them not wanting us to paint the balcony wall black, but come on.Just doesn't seem right. So, the bottom line is, we're getting out of here one fine day. Hopefully sooner as opposed to later, so we can get our cat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 22, 2011 Sorry wasn't around much yesterday, I would have been totally lousy company. I recognized the 20th anniversary since my father's passing yesterday, but some other not so nice news came down.I won't go into detail, as that can all be read on my page and it bears not repeating.

Toulouse 0 Posted June 23, 2011 Yvette, I'm so sorry you had such a tough day *hugs*And it seems like a good idea to be thinking about another place to stay, if they are so strickt about getting a cat.I am still studying, and I'm counting down, because this seems like a long time. I've been studying for two weeks now, the same course, because I only have one, and I still have (just less then) a week to go. It sure makes you feel lonely from time to time. And that's about it. I can't wait for summer holidays, I have a few things planned, and some ideas in the back of my mind for then.Hope all is well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
