Hello,

let me introduce Ozzy Osbald to this community.
He is 9 month old and so far he had not had the best of luck. He was the runt of the litter and got picked on by his brothers. Then he found a good home but sadly there dog did not like him that much either. So after his misfortune he made his way into my home.
And we intent to give him all the love and care he needs and deserves. Just look at him, how could you not love him!
We got him yesterday and he already enjoyes his lengthly cuddling seassons. We just got some issues with the food and his weight. He was feed some caned bullshit food (sugar and grain) and only weights 2,4kg
He now gets premade frozen raw food but is a little hesistant about it. I also gave him some minced beef which he gobbled up like a vacuum but the proper catfood not so much.
I just hope he gets used to it so he can enjoy the food he was made for in the first place.
He also found his favourite spot in the house already. My shoulders :happy:

Welcome. Ozzy is adorable, and you're right, how could anyone not love him. But then it was meant to be that he be in your care and loving hands.

There is an additive called FortiFlora (not sure if you can get it where you are), but it's like kitty crack. It's a probiotic, so healthy for them too, but a sprinkle of this on food really encourages eating.

Keep us updated on Ozzy's progress!

Thanks guys.
another day almost over. He cant get enough of his raw food now. Added an egg yolk today and tomorrow he gets an chickenwing to his normal food. Just to test if he likes it.
Went to my butcher today. He offers minced chicken, venison, rabbit and beef for catfood. only 2,5€ per kilo. Just need to add some bones and organs.

Now he enjoys scratches from my girlfriend

I built Ozzy a Catwheel
When its time to sleep (for humans anyway) and his energy isnt already drained enough, he jumps in and takes it for a ride

For those who are interested, its selfmade and the most expensive part was the rope (220meter for 50€) but only needed 80meters
All things together roughly 50€ quite a steal compared to those fior 200+ you can buy
Diameter is 1 meter, fits nicely between my hallway and door but would build it a little bigger if enough space ~1,2meter would be nice

I'm a bit late to this thread, but just wanted to say that I'm sooo pleased that gorgeous little Ozzy finally found a home where he will be loved and appreciated!! He looks like he could be my Butchie's long lost brother haha ;) Seems you've got him to a good weight now, feeding him all that healthy and tasty food!

And well done with that catwheel - it's supercool! :D(y)

@pepal Ohhh I like! Where did you find the instructions to build this?
googled around a little bit and found a thread in a german forum but sadly all his images where deleted.
Some inspiration and two right hands in construction made it quite easy.
If you are interested i can write down everything i needed and how to built

please do, same offer as above

I added some Photos of Ozzy to the Media section which capture his personality quite well i think.
Being a sleepy weirdo.
