Introducing Frankie Our Latest Foster

Sooz

Wise Old Thumper
This is Frankie who also came from Elaine at Tameside and is Fudges brother. He is a bit overweight and terrified of people so he is now living inside with us to allow him to socialise.

He will also be on a diet in a few days (once his tummy has settled down with veg) as I want to shift some weight before he is neutered.

when you pick him up and feel his belly you realise he is too heavy, also he has small fat folds at the top of his front legs. I wouldnt worry too much if he was already neutered but seen as he has to be 'done' and is likely to put on weight after I would rather lim him down now.
 
We had a really good night with frankie. he spent two hours on the sofa with me and by the end he had relaxed for the first time since he got here and was resting, stretched out with his head on my leg.

Oh he looks so happy there... I am going to have to get Fudge in the house for an hour a day at least.. He won't let me go near him though to pick him up.. I went into the shed with him today & sat on the floor & he is coming around to me a bit more. . My daughter is nearly 11 shes very good with the buns aswell so she's spending time talking to him & stroking him.. I'll update some pics later if I can get him in the house..
I've got my hubby outside working in the rain trying to get a large run sorted for Fudge bless him.
 
He still hates to be picked up, he hid behind the sink yesterday and was convinced that because he couldnt see me I couldnt see him, even though his bum was sticking out behind him.
 
Oh wow Sooz, those latest pictures are great! Really heart warming - Frankie looks so relaxed :D

I keep saying it, but I think he's just beautiful!
 
He was running round the living room with the kittens this afternoon, great stuff as it meant he got Loads of exercise. He also absolutely adores veg so cutting back on pellets dosnt seem to be bothering him. :D
