Awwww, it's so nice how your other kitties are kind to the old fellow! And good on you for taking him in. 20 years old! That is amazing! And may he have many more happy years in his new furrever home. It is good to hear that he wasn't abanoned because his owners tired of him, and it will be good when he can have a visit from his previous human :)
It's such a joy reading that Tom has settled in so well and he didn't have to spend his last time at the shelter. :) I'm so glad you're taking him! It's great if his previous owner can visit and see how well Tom is doing, I'm sure he'll feel much better! :)
Glad to hear you took Tom in!! I'm sure Tom knows he's in good hands:)
I'm glad you took this elderly kitty in, and the other cats accept him. For some reason he makes me think of Old Deuteronomy from the play "Cats."
Congratulations on the addition of Tom to the hotel. He could not have booked better accomondations if he called the Ritz himself. How wonderful that he has the opportuntity to live out his senoir years in love and comfort.
I will be anxiously awaiting the arrival of a photo that I will gladly post.
It is good that the original guardian of Tom will get to know that he is safe. (it maust be incredibly hard to need to give up a beloved pet)
Thank you, catmandu, for being the wonderful person you are.
Awww......I feel sorry that both had to be separated. I'm sure they both gave each other many happy years together!So glad you are able to share your home with Tom.Quote:

Have you dealt with a deaf cat before? If you ever need any resources for deaf cats, I can send you a few links to forums and emails of people I know who have deaf cats.

Actually at this home they have 4 resident Cats , its just at 20 , Thomas felt that Tom was too old to adjust to the noise and other people. and he will be visiting the Lost Cats Hotel , just as soon as he can set up things with the darts bus , a subsidized bus for older people!The home is not on the Regular Bus Run , and Thomas is not able to catch a regular bus anyway. thank you so much for the kind thoughts and words , and Tom sends you all headbumps and licks! lost cats hotel.
can you please tell me all about the Lost Cats Hotel, being on the other side of the world i have never heard of it, how does it work, etc, great tom is there thanks:)
Thanks Jen, for saying so well exactly what I was thinking.Quote:
