Hello All
Thanks for the e-mail to Jayne and David, they have asked us to reply.
First of all we would like to say thanks to you all for the help you have given us and for finding us a new home.
We have settled in really well here in Fakenham, although we have the run of the house we also have our own room where we eat and have a tall tower to scratch and climb and has a basket on the top so we can snooze.  It was funny at the beginning because Jayne and David couldn't tell us apart very easily and they used to get our names muddled up. 
As you know we like our food.  We are fed twice a day  and always have biscuits to eat, but this doesn't stop us from finding a little room for some treats, we have these in the evenings and always have a long "stick" things to eat before we go to bed, these are yummy, we really like those.
We do like to explore and so far we have found our way under the sink, into kitchen cupboards, wardrobes, even climbed into the dishwasher once!  We love exploring and especially exploring up high.  Tops of cupboards, wardrobes, shelves, you name it we've tried it.
The bungalow has an extension on the back and there is also a conservatory, a lovely place to sleep when the sun shines.  Anyway, it is a long way from the front to the back of the bungalow and we do like to play and chase each other backwards and forwards, we have to be careful because we find it difficult to stop on the tiled floor in the conservatory and sometimes it doesn't look very graceful.  We do get told off when we chase each other in the middle of the night, we run up and down the hall and then over the bed waking Jayne and David up, they tell us to go to sleep, which we do eventually on the bottom of the bed after a cuddle or two.  We do like cuddles and get plenty of them.
Now that it is getting warmer we have been told that we can go outside soon, looking forward to that, we look at the birds through the windows and wonder if we can catch them before they fly away.
We have had breakfast and a run around and now we are feeling a bit tired, so we have to go and find the bed for a long sleep.  We have added a couple of pictures for you and will be in touch again soon.
Best Wishes
Toby & Tyson

Hi he's great, did not realize how much we have missed having a cat, he is having great fun, been outside on his lead and loves it, he has been great company for Ellie and she loves him very much, but most of all he is having so much fun with the rabbit they are great friends.











Here are some pictures of Jessica.













(Previously known as Freda.) She has settled in extremely well and has got lots of new toys to play with! She loves to be brushed and stroked too! Thank you very much for the lovely kitten!! We have discovered, she likes looking at herself in the mirror, as shown in one of the pictures!












Thought you might be interested to see how stressed Sassy is living with us! She is an absolute delight & very mischievous!





I just wanted you know that PRINCE has settled in very well and I will be sending over some pictures soon.

He is such a lovely cat !

Just thought we would drop you a line to let you know how missy is doing.

She seems to be settling in very well and getting on well with Joe (our other cat).

Hi to you all,
thought you might like to know how Poppy is getting on in her new home. It’s as if she has been here forever and is slowly trying to win our old cat round, they have managed to eat near each other, stayed in a room together and run past each other. A few hisses and grumbles from our old girl and a bit of chancing from Poppy too. It’s getting there slowly, but it’s only just over a week since they met each other for the first time.
My son harry is over the moon with his birthday present...Poppy is the most adorable cat and is kind, careful and polite, she loves nothing better than a cuddle laying on her back while pawing the air. TV is fabulous when there are other animals on and she sits and watches and than she can’t stop herself and has to jump at the TV!!
Thank you Sharon Bird



















Dear Dereham  
She is not so little now!  She is a wonderful cat. My little boy and I, and our other cat Indy love her to bits. Indy and her are having a mad chase around at the moment, she sounds like a galloping horse when she runs around. They were snuggled up together on their bed.
We are so very lucky to have got such a beautiful, friendly, loving, cuddly cat.  Her antics have us in tears of laughter. She is such an action girl, if she can be into it, she will!  She loves going outside with Indy, but she doesn’t go off, she tends to stay close by and let you know she’s ok, and check that we’re ok. She does worry if Indy goes off for awhile.
In the summer, she loved to bring in daddy longlegs, then eat them.  Her and Indy love chasing butterflies then eating them (needless to say wormer is very regular)! A couple of times when I wasn’t very well, Indy brought me a dead bird present, which Daisy was fascinated by & had to get in on. Then one day William and I were in his bedroom when Indy brought us a live bird in and Daisy was so excited, they both were, it was so funny.
I say she is my therapy cat because she loves cuddles and being fussed and stroked as much as she can. She is quite chatty at times. She will come and rollover at your feet and do ‘upsy daisy’!
Daisy was quite nervous of my parents when they first visited, now she goes mad for a fuss, especially with my mum and ‘upsy daisy’ at her feet she has to be careful Daisy doesn’t just rollover at her feet when she walks around.
Indy now always goes to cuddle up with my son at bedtime and Daisy comes in with me. She purrs her head off and cuddles up close. She’s lovely, very special.
We’ve have rehomed two absolutely beautiful amazing cats from Cats Protection (Dereham & Downham). 
 
With very best wishes,
Judith & William
