Morning! Early start today, off to south London to see a potential new buddy for our 3yr old Siamese boy. His Savannah brother from another mother has been missing for a few weeks and it's not looking hopeful that he'll be coming back.

I'm completely heartbroken 💔 but Frank's so unhappy, missing his friend in fuckery.

We're going to see a nearly 2yr old Abyssinian, looking for a new home as his staff are having to relocate to Singapore and can't take him with them - even if they could, he'd be going from central London (albeit with a park over the road) to a high rise flat in Singapore.

They're looking for a rural space for him, which we can definitely provide.

I just hope we're doing the right thing.

It took me way too long to work out you're talking about cats, and not an actual Siamese boy...

Testing the braincells this morning!!

We don’t usually even thinking about getting a new cat for several months after one dies. We recently had our youngest (3 years) get knocked over on the road and this is the first time that we’ve ever considered “replacing” a cat because our 5 year old missed her so much that she became Ill with the stress.

She’s ok now but she’s a lot more clingy than she used to be.

I hope you find your other cat. We know someone who lost theirs and found him after what must have been six months so there’s always a chance.
