We went to visit our chosen cat again today. When we arrived she was in her cat basket and was just waking up. She was extremely pleased to see us.
We were allowed into her cubicle and we sat on the floor. The cat jumped on each of our laps in turn.
It was windy and the cat got a little bit jumpy understandably. She then leapt at her scratching post and pulled on the rope with her claws and started to chew it.
I then tapped the top platform and she looked around at the floor to start with then leapt up and managed to secure a safe footing on the top of the platform. Hanging on the wire cage is a flying fish. This is a toy attached to elastic and is bright orange. She immediately grabbed this with her paws and started to chew it.
She then cleaned herself and whilst concentrating on that the fish dropped down. I then picked it up for her and placed it by her. She grabbed it again until she went to lick herself again. This made me smile.
After a while she seemed to want to go to sleep perched on the top platform. So we decided to leave her.
At least this time I left feeling happier.
Having had a really good day especially on achieving 40 lengths swimming tonight in under an hour we received a telephone call from the RSPCA to say our home visit is tomorrow night.
So it is fingers crossed this will go well.
