I collected this little man on Wednesday and he has already wormed his way into our hearts…….so affectionate and playful and also extremely gentle -his claws have stayed firmly under wraps even when he was in a tussle with the vet while being microchipped .

He is totally deaf which means that he both miaows and purrs like a cat with a loudspeaker…priceless!!

Lucky (I can’t believe he’s been called "Lucky"!) gets along famously with dogs and other cats from what I can see so far.

Hope to post some photos soon to show how handsome he is but in the meantime he is waiting patiently for the kind, caring & understanding cat-lover who can offer him a secure, safe home – preferably with another feline companion.

Hi ClaireT. Lucky is just back from the vet as his eye had reopened (weird, I know) and was infected. He is all sorted now but doesn’t look at his most handsome this week so has asked me to refrain from posting photos until he gets his movie-star looks back!

The staff at the vets fell in love with him and said he was really hard to work with as they couldn’t resist playing with him. He is SUPER affectionate and spends his time trying to kiss my dogs, purring, attempting to engage my very grumpy male cat & snoozing in the sun.

He is totally deaf so loves being hoovered! He does need to go to a home where he is an indoor only cat as his safety is quite compromised outdoors due to his deafness and only having one eye. He is the only cat I can "sneak up on" successfully and even when he is awake it’s possible to sneak up on his blind side and catch him out.

Lucky is one chilled out dude and is not in the least put out by his latest bout of surgery. He would definitely be very suitable for a home with small children, cats, dogs……..what’s not to love about this guy???!!!!!!

Photos to follow when his cone of shame is removed.

He loves the HOOVER??? That’s hilarious!!!! I totally agree with blueindigo, his name is finally fitting now that he has found DID and you! That’s such a pity about him getting an infection in his eye! Glad it’s cleared up now.

Very funny updates, thank you!!!!!

I have decided to rename Lucky. His new moniker is "Lucky the not-so-lucky kitten". The poor little man is back with the vets as his "missing" eye is infected yet again. It’s basically the same, deep-seated infection so he is scheduled for surgery on Thursday to resolve it once and for all.

As usual, he is charming the pants off everybody who meets him and I think the vet staff are secretly delighted he is back.

I’ll post some photos of him again next week as he is a quick healer and he should be back to his former gorgeousness in no time. A word to any potential adopters………your electrical appliances are now safe…….he has decided that they don’t have too much to offer so has now moved on to stalking the cat flap in the hope that it might open for him!!!

The most wonderful, fantabulous kitten (if Carlsberg did kittens………) will be back to regale you with his exploits at the weekend.

Hi Siobhan. He didn’t require surgery in the end…..just a long course of antibiotics which he will finish tomorrow. He has a check up with the vet in the morning and, hopefully, he will be 100%.

He has been keeping us entertained with his antics….chasing reflections on the walls & ceilings (he twirls around like a prima ballerina trying to get to the ceiling from his vantage point on the sofa ), attempting to catch the puff of air that emits occasionally from the vent at the bottom of the fridge, trying to catch birds that have landed on the conservatory roof (from his spot safely inside the conservatory) and stalking every dog/cat/human bowl or dish in the house in case we have something nicer to eat than him

Placid, easy-going, entertaining, full of fun and play at times, affectionate, gentle & very chilled out – he’s the business!!!
