Good to hear from you
I’ve been in regular touch with Penny – Charlie’s foster mum to give her updates
We didn’t change Charlie’s name – it suits him
It’s 3 months tomorrow since we’ve had him
He is doing really well Happy and healthy and a really sweet cat
Since we’ve had him – he’s transitioned from kitten to cat although he obviously still has mad outbursts!
When we adopted him, Penny said “he’s a handful and he needs boundaries”
That was a great insight which I think we have worked through well
It was a bit of a challenge introducing Charlie to our existing cat, Poppy, but we went really slowly and they are doing well now Charlie wants to play, but Poppy is not having that! Yet they rub along OK and seem to be improving each day
We let Charlie out for the first time on his first birthday after having him for 11 weeks He really worried us by disappearing for 5 hours! We were very happy when he eventually came home
Since then he has stayed in the garden or very close by so I think he got his big explore out of his system!
Charlie is a delight – I am so glad he came to us
Thank you so much for the wonderful work you all do at Lincoln Cat Care
Kind regards
Zoe.
