Does this mean what I think it does,did refrain from PM you,could be the first £2 donation in the pot,my watching & waiting has taken a bit longer than anticipated....x

You know me too well. Have offered to, if allowed split them with bethy_boo or take in both on condition they remain Grahams cats and he can have them back if ever he wants them. Tired but waiting for reply. I optioned a kitten today but have rung breeder who immediately said "you've see that thread?". Fingers, toes and eyes crossed now xxx

I tried not to respond to this too...........it's a little too close to home. So far I've been lucky in a similar circs, two young MC's then a surprise pregnancy and then a baby who is known as sleep dodger and at six months still does not sleep through the night!

My heart goes out to you but I like catslaves fostering idea, I hope everything works out for you.

My youngest (child) was like that Helen, the first night he slept through I didn't sleep a wink as I was expecting him to wake up any minute. 16 years later I'm lucky if he is up by 5pm. Its good for kids to get used to pets early, they never get the chance to develop a fear of them. All 3 of mine learnt to walk holding onto the dog.

My first real memory of pet related bonding with my offspring was just about getting home & remembering I had gone up town with a pram & two dogs,flying back up there they were sitting very patiently guarding babe,I always think it is good for children to grow up & appreciate animals,they used to be my wind down therapy on the bad days when babe was not playing game & she grew up appreciating that in life there are others that have to come before her,I have to say I don't know what I would have done many times without my four legged companions,canine & feline, so can't imagine the heartbreak it must cause to have to give that up.
Any update yet on how the new home search is going {or gone}.....x

Hi everyone, sorry for not keeping an eye on the thread. I was expecting just to hear through PM (Dont know why it didn't occur to me to check the thread, stupid) I have a telephone number for 'Catslave' but I must say (Although utimately I haven't any control over it) but they must stay together, they sleep, eat, play and lay together always at the same time and if one was shut in a room without the other by mistake they cry and cry but you can shut them in the room together and then they don't mind (That was before I cut cat faced holes in all the down stairs doors!) But the first to contact me was 'Hayheadsbird' so I feel I must exlore this avenue first. She is out tonight so I will be ringing her tomorrow, however the conversation goes I will be sure to keep you updated. Thank you all for your understanding and kind words. Graham.
