March 2, 2025 – Zoe's Ark

Our super handsome half Mainecoon kitty Charlie came to us along with 6 of his siblings & half siblings back in July 2024. Though Charlie & his siblings were born in a home, a couple of days later they were removed out of the home by the 2 mother cats due to them actual being feral cats who were just being looked after by a lady who was trying to gain their trust. A few weeks passed and eventually the mother cats came back along with each of their babies where the lady then continued to look after & care them.

In the meantime she then contacted us to see if we could step in to help take some once they were old enough to leave mum, within this conversation it was mentioned how a ginger Mainecoon had been hanging around them all and it was clear to them he was an intact male, when we found out that most the kittens were then ginger it made sense very quickly who the dad was. Especially when we got our first photo of Charlie sent to us! There was definitely no denying it.

Once Charlie and his siblings came into the rescue it was clear these poor babies were scared and reserved, though they had knowledge of humans thanks to that lady, they still for the first 4 most important weeks of their lives, grew up ferally leaving them lacking certain skills or trust in humans. However with time, patience & looks of love they all started to come around, Charlie himself making the quickest and best progress. When I came time to finding up a home, he was snapped up immediately... Is it any wonder?

Here are his updates for you all.

1 Month:

Odin has settled so well and is so loving. He loves to play with our Charlie cat as they rush around the house and chase each other through the cat tunnels we have. They do cuddle up together on an evening and he has begun to sleep on the bed with the rest of the gang on a nightime. He has a new favourite toy of a Catnip hedgehog which he likes to throw around and carry with him. He has loved christmas attacking my christmas tree decorations and batting the baubles down my hallway. He loves to be at the centre of everything happening and has loved meeting all the family and friends over christmas. He is now using the automated toilet and uses the scratchy posts/boxes like a pro. He loves to eat and snuggle on your knee. We absolutely adore him ❤️

Cheeky Charlies 3 month update:

Odin (formally Charlie) is such a little character. He is such a lovable mischief. He loves to be in the middle of everything happening and loves to sit on your knee and will pester everyone for tummy rubs. We recently welcomed a new baby into the home and he absolutely adores her, he likes to check on her when she cries and loves to join us for cuddles. I'm sure she has a best friend in him already. Odin enjoys trying to trip us up on the stairs, running around the house at night with our other cat and playing with his toys. He is the greediest of cats and always appears at dinner times and you can guarantee he will be in the kitchen if someone walks through. He always makes us laugh causing choas around the house. He is very much loved by the whole family. ❤️
