Still no rest, didn't sleep a bloody wink last and phone has been non stop today

Anyway mums and babies are both doing fine, Liz managed to trap the last little kitten last night so he/she has been reunited with his brother/sister and will be being brought to me next week

I've still got a few feral mums to sort but just really spay and return but all have kittens which need to be sorted, I'm going to put a plea out for foster homes as I really can't take in any more at the moment

Fingers crossed I manage to get something sorted out for them

Glad all are doing well

Isabella has got 5 babies, 3 grey and 2 black

Both mums are doing well, both eating and seem to be good mums

This is why I need the Manchester cats going. I went to Warrington today but got a phone call off Nicola to say the cat hasn't been seen seen so possibly someone's pregnant cat

At least that's one less to sort but hopefully if someone owns her, they'll get her done when she has had her kittens.

Isabella has now given birth

madkittyrescue · « **Reply #17 on:** August 05, 2008, 08:38:45 AM »

awww bless Dawn.... amazing how sweet they can be at the end stage of being preggers and nursing... fingers crossed it lasts.

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #16 on:** August 05, 2008, 01:46:37 AM »

I was just in the lounge and the gorgeous Isabella strolled in and I heard meowing, she had managed to pull the door up on the hospital cage

She slowly came over to me and let me stroke her down her whole body and even half rolled over for me to stroke her belly

I can't believe it

Liz said with these cats, normally you can't get within 50 ft of them and when they were caught especially Isabella, she went loopy at the guy and tried to attack him. I'm so pleased that she trust me, it may be because she's extremely huge and due anytime and possibly her hormones are all over but either way, I'm over the moon, she is just

yes 4 is plenty nuff Nikita!!!

bless her.

Hope you manage to get some rest hun... remember... you have to learn how to say NO..... you can't save them all single handedly hun... and if you run yourself into the ground you won't be able to help any

you can stop now missy!!

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #13 on:** August 04, 2008, 13:40:39 PM »

Update:

4 babies

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #12 on:** August 04, 2008, 13:30:33 PM »

They look black

Just spoke to Liz now though and she said she saw another young black cat on the site today, no more than a few months old so possibly one from her last litter. She's still trying to get the other kitten from one of the litter, I think Isabella's last one and once we get him/her, I will get the others spayed and neutered from there

Dawn F · « **Reply #11 on:** August 04, 2008, 12:59:56 PM »

can you tell what colour Dawn?

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #10 on:** August 04, 2008, 12:41:05 PM »

She's allowed me to have a little look and I can see 3

She doesn't seem too bad with me and she lifted her leg up to show me, she seems very proud of herself bless her

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #6 on:** August 04, 2008, 11:16:40 AM »

I had no rest whatsoever, went over to Mid Wales last night after work, got in at about 2.30 this morning, head on the verge of exploding feeling very ill

But good news, the gorgeous Nikita has given birth, not sure how many yet but I'm so pleased I got her in when I did

madkittyrescue · « **Reply #5 on:** August 04, 2008, 11:09:20 AM »

fingers crossed for this duo Dawn. Hope you got some reast over the weekend hun

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #4 on:** August 02, 2008, 19:43:57 PM »

These gorgeous girls have both been sedated today and checked over. Nikita had a slight injury to her tail but it was superficial and not bad, Isabella was absolutely fine

Both girls are heavily pregnant especially Nikita the younger of the two, not sure how far along as I didn't get chance to speak to Siobhan but she said it was safer to leave them.

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #3 on:** August 02, 2008, 02:02:36 AM »

They are definitely related, the resemblance is uncanny but apparently from what Liz has found out, the one I took in earlier is Grandma and the one I've got to take in in the morning is mum. The one I've got looks to be about a year old and apparently she has had 3 litters and this will be her fourth. She is just so beautiful, they both are and I can't wait to see the kittens

Hopefully the second kitten will be caught tomorrow and Liz will be bringing the two over after the weekend to give me a break

She said she is exhausted just trapping these today so she dreads to think how tired I am

They've both had a rough time apparently and have never had a home but both have meowed at me today which seemed promising, and I gave "Grandma" who I am calling Nikita a little stroke on the head whilst she was in the vets

Oh Dawn they must be from the same litter then? Poor little ones

I hope they are not too wild and you can find them a home

Dawn (DiddyDawn) · « **Reply #1 on:** August 01, 2008, 20:44:57 PM »

Took a beautiful smokey coloured feral to the vets earlier, obviously unwell with an apparent injury to her tail. Got another phone call whilst on my way home to say another pregnant, smokey coloured cat had also gone into the trap and this also had an injured tail

I haven't got a clue if the other one I've taken in is the injured one now or if they are both injured

This one definitely has an injured tail and does look poorly as well so I'll have to ring the vets in the morning and then take this one up as well

Liz and the guys on the site weren't even aware there were two smokey coloured cats, they only thought there was one, both are absolutely stunning and I can't wait to get them treated and to see how wild they are
