Its a strange way to start a topic but I guess I'll start from the day
I bought Leo. I didn't mean to buy another cat considering that my last
one only lived for two years but I just couldn't resist him. He's a
ginger tabby and I've had him since November last year. He's five
months old now. When I first got him he was such a little baby wouldn't
do anything wrong. He had a brother that was totally off his trolley he
was so wild and all over the place and that is exactly the type of
character I dont like in a cat. Leo has turned out to be just like
that. He jumps on the most strange places you could think of and makes
me so mad its unreal. Anyway I've learned to ignore that, sometimes he
doesn't do it so much its only when he wants attention I think. I live
on the first floor and my dining room window opens up to a balcony that
stretches across to a number of flats. He went onto it a few times when
I first moved into the property and dissapeared so far on three
occations. When I say dissapeard I mean vanished. He did not turn up
for a good couple of days and last time I really went out of my mind
with worry because it was almost four days and I thought I really lost
him. I made a load of posters, flyers etc so that someone would come
forward and hand him over. I spent hours looking for him and and
eventually a received a call from a local hotel manageress saying he's
stuck on scaffolding near where I live. How did he get on there in the
first place ??? Big question, when I tried to fetch him from there I
nearly fell myself and if not for my flatmate I dont think I would have
made it. Its not the first time he put me through this. I can promise
you its very stressful looking after this little ginger trouble maker.
He did not receive any vaccinations and has not been microchipped yet
or nutored and that makes the worry even bigger when he runs off. Well
no more mister nice guy he is not going out again.

I received a phonecall from some lady near my home estate telling me
how to look after my own cat so I didn't really pay much attention to
that but she said she will collect Leo and do the microchipping etc for
him for £25.00 and I'll have him back later in the day. It's ok she
said she works for the Royal Vetenary College so I expect she will
prove that when she comes to collect my Leo this tuesday. If this does
turn out to be genuien I will be saving a fair amount of money because
I'm not working at the minute anyway and hopefuly when he recovers from
the little op he wont be to eager to go out.
