Thankfully Judy and Warren said they'd keep him and he is now sharing a home with their other rescue cat Sunny Jim who is getting used to having a new playmate.
A very happy ending to a story that could have easily had a sadder outcome.
After much debate about a name that suits him...he's now been christened 'Nobby' after Nobby Stiles!
He's a beautifully marked tabby with blue grey eyes...so he's definitely goning to be a looker!
If you think you can re-home a kitten or cat then do get in touch with Jaki at care4cats as we're always looking for loving homes for loving cats.

Hi, i visited Ibiza in may, and thought i would have a nice relaxing break in the sun. Well i was mistaken, i was overwhelmed by the suffering of many, many cats and kittens.I was unable to walk on by, like so many people do. So it started off, first with a trip to the local supermarket, purchasing loads of cat food. We would go all around San Antonio feeding the numerous cats.
But then came the next dilema, how could we leave the cats/kittens who were in a bad way physicaly. Numerous had flea allergies - missing fur, bleeding from sores. Others had the tips of their ears missing - and were black at points and bleeding - showing the signs of skin cancer. Then there were the tiny kittens living on the streets, some as young as 6 weeks. As if this was not bad enough, they were not healthy bundles, they looked extremely poorly with cat flu - 2 tabbies looked like they were going to loose one or both their eyes. And the others were weak and sneezing. so that was it the holiday was over and the work started. We got some cat baskets and 2 traps, and with the help of Jaki, set about catching some of the cats and kittens.
They were taken to the vets and treated, and if old enough they were neutered. Some were fostered by people on the island others were returned. But at least they could not have any more babies and continue the cycle of misery.
We were so overwhelmed with the misery of the cats that we have arranged to go back out with the charity in July to get more cats neuteted. hopefully this will help to reduce the suffering .
Nobby is going from strength to strength. He's got to the stage where he can be a proper nuisance LOL! He's great fun. I love watching him and Sunny Jim play fighting.
