Neighbours departed for a small high-rise unit in a busy suburb
They had a cat similar to Ken but icy white with dark tips
We'd been feeding and sheltering him since almost the start because the neighbours soon tired of the novelty of their pet and in addition they used to vanish for a month at a time
On the eve of their departure from here, they asked if we 'wanted' their cat
Rather than see him dumped in the gardens at the bottom of a high rise, we said we would take him in. We'd already been taking him to the vet for injuries he'd sustained at the hands of a killer-cat and we'd made a bed for him years earlier with a heated pad during winter because he was left out in the cold
He's a delightful little animal, forever a kitten in many ways. Incredibly beautiful in appearance and very sensitive. Last time we took him to the vet, he refused to eat to the point they said they were worried and suggested we bring him home for fear he'd dehydrate. So they are very sensitive and dependent emotionally upon their family. Ours likes to be cuddled, indeed, he would die without affection, I think. He cuddles like a baby and puts his 'arms' around my neck. Sheds hair like mad. Adorable animals
We have others also 'donated' by neglectful owners. It's prevented us from selling and downsizing, but what can you do
You are a tru animal lover. Good on you.

What is the difference between a British Blue (which I thought Ken might be) and a British short hair (which was what others suggested on the other thread Ken featured in?) Or are they the same thing?
