Charlie is the latest member of our Golden Oldie club although at 14 years he is one of the youngsters. Peaches is the oldest at 23 years and still going strong and we have lots of resident cats who are in between. Charlie is a lovely boy, very friendly and fussy. He has settled in right away and made himself at home. Charrlie has been a much loved pet until his elderly owner’s hospitalization meant that he was home alone. He is a handsome cat, and is in fine form except for his teeth – he doesn’t have any! Biscuits are off the menu although we may try him with some tiny crunchies. Some cats still eat biscuits even though toothless but Charlie isn’t used to them and loves soft food. No complaints os far – he’s licked his plate clean every time!
Charlie’s fate was in the balance before he was brought to us, the vet had suggested that he be put to sleep if a retirement home couldn’t be found. We were happy to help – Charlie is fit, active and healthy and we’ll make sure thst he has many more happy years ahead.
