At this moment (August 2011) we have 10 cats and
a dog
 |
This is our dog Rexy,
We adopted him when he was 10 years old
Now he is 12 years and 7 months and still going
strong
We sure hope he will be with us for some more time |
We have a lot of Cats, 10 in total.
You understand that we love our pets very much. Sometimes its a lot of work but
we do love our pets very much.
Our first Cat was Poekie, we had this wonderful cat in
1983 until 1990
When Poekie died we got ourselves a new cat at the asylum, Lady at the
age of 3 years. We were very fortunate to have her and take care of her until she became
very old and weak.
She died when she was 20 years old.

Lady
This is Lady
We adopted her at age of 3, we had her pleasure
for 17 years.
Lady was a nice and loving cat. She loved to go
outside but only when she was lined.
She died when she was 20 years old. She became weaker
and weaker until she could not stand on her feet anymore.
We wanted a natural death for her but at the end we could not bear
seeing her suffering of her very old age and decided to help her with
this struggle.

After a few years we had a cat around our house Flipje
 |
Flipje Flipje wandered around our house for a few
years.
He also had a home with us and could go outside when he liked.
Unfortunately he was wounded by someone shooting at him.
After recovery
from this wound we did allow him outside, we should better not have
allowed this because
we never seen him again.
We searched for at least two months but he was
vanished.
During the search we found a similar cat in the asylum and we
decided to adopt this cat Japie. |
Japie
 |
Japie
Japie was adopted by us during the search for
Flipje, we decided that he could not walk free outside but should remain
inside and we built a cat home outside. He can go outside when he wants
but cannot walk away.
In 2004 Japie got a
stroke but recovered well from this. In the years after he had more
health problems and in 2007 he became worse. When we decided to let him
euthanize we went to the vet but during the drive he got a heart stroke
and died before we arrived at the vet.

Friekje

Friekje
Friekje was adopted at the same time when we adopted Japie
to keep him company.
Friekje became renal failure in 2008 but with
special diet and extra additives she kept fine until 2011. Then the
renal failure became much worse and we had to let her go. In memoriam :

Moor
 |
Moor We got Moore from the assylum
when we also went for Mistie.
Moor was a very loving cat who always loved to share her basket with the
other cats
Moor suffered from renal failure and we had to let her go.
She was 16 years old when we lost her. |
Mistie
 |
Mistie
Mistie, a special cat with only one eye.
When Mistie came living with us he was afraid of unknown things and gave
a claw when we wanted to coddle
him. After a while we found that he likes a kiss on his head and after
that his behaviour changed. He became much more friendly and we had a
special bond with him.
After a few years he suffered from renal failure and we had to let him
go.

Blackie
 |
Blacky
This is Blacky, he wandered around our
house for a long period. During a strong winter with temperatures of -13
degrees he was still outside so we started giving him a small box and
after a while he came living with us.
Later we found that he belonged to a neighbour a
few houses away, they called him Sjimmie. They suggested to let Sjimmie
decide were to stay. After two weeks it was obvious that he wanted to
stay with us.
Her still lives with us. |
Milky
 |
Milky
Milky is a stray cat wandering around our house for
some time. We started feeding him after a while and he was a more
regular visitor.
His looks were not very fine, with many small wounds on his head.
After some time he ran into our home being afraid,
perhaps for an other cat. Since then Milky lives with us in our house.

Kid

Kid & Milou
Kid was living in the asylum together with Milou when my wife was on
internship.
He was seized at his previous owner who did not take care of him and
Milou.
He was a very small cat, almost 6 months old and
afraid of human.
We take care for Kid and Milou who changed to nice
cats who like to be coddled
They still live with us |
Milou

Milou |
Roosje
 |
Roosje Roos was a
stray cat most probably dumped with us and loud crying for help. She was
estimated to be almost 4 months when she was left at our place. We
decided to help her and give her a home with us. She still lives with
us. |

Droppie Droppie
was wandering our house during the summer of 2010 for a week. During our
first holiday week I walked with our dog Rexy when I saw him laying in
the grass not giving any reaction on my and Rexy. When I went to him he
kept laying in the grass without moving. I went inside to take Rexy home
and came back together with my wife and he still was not reacting to our
presence. We offered him some food which he liked and needed very much.
We took him inside and gave him food and a place to sleep. After some
hours he became wealthy again and since then he lives with us. |

Snoesje & Polleke
Polleke, in the front was visiting us since 2009
and during the winter 2009 to 2010 she was living with us. At spring
2010 he decided it was time to leave and he smashed the roof and left.
From that time on he visited us for something to eat. During the early
winter of 2010 he again came living with us after he ran into our house
when we opened the door. Since the he lives together with Snoesje in our
serre.
Snoesje wandered around our house since summer
2010 and she stayed in our greenhouse. When winter arrived it became
very cold for her. When Polleke decided to come in we also decided that
it was better for Snoesje to come in and live together with Polleke.
After the winter both decided to stay with us and
they still live happy in our serre. |
