Title: House with 21 cats - update and two week old kits!
Post by: wharfevalley catsprotection on March 02, 2008, 11:48:20 AM
Here is Gucci and her family of five, two week old kittens!

Here's Gizmo, Peanut and Charlie (we're currently trying to find out why Peanut won't put weight on his back leg)

Hopefully this will be the beginning of a new start for these little ones (and the 9 adults we've also taken from the house!!!)

The boys do not need a baby brother or sister, the boys do not need a baby brother or sister, the boys do not need a bay brother or sister... If I keep repeating it I might just believe it!  How cute are bothe those little families  :Luv: :Luv: :Luv:

That's a really good idea putting a video on the homing pages for each cat, do you find you get a better response to the cats that have a video?

 :rofl: Katie just looks disgusted when she hears them (she hates any other feline and feels herself above them all - she's a tortie if you hadn't already guessed!)

The mums are really lovely - Gucci is a grey/blue tortie and will be very much in demand I think! I haven't put the wee ones on the site yet as if i do, the older kittens will get overlooked, but I don't think they'll stay around too long (especially being tabby, which everyone seems to want at the moment!)

The mums definately need a rest though as we think they've kittened many times before and they are quite small in real life. They just need some rest and relaxation, and they'll be fine. I'm just glad we could stop it before it could happen again and again.

We do find that it helps, especially with the more nervous cats who love and "perform" for their fosterers, but tend to hide when strangers come to see them. It shows people the potential of what they WILL be like when they're settled. Kittens always sell themselves, but it's something that not a lot of rescue centres do, so I guess I wanted ours to stand out! I just set up a Youtube account and do it through that - if I can do it, it must be easy!

They are all lovely!

This however will teach me not to turn the sound on as my Smoke is digging all over me trying to find the kittens and meowing.

Luck with finding homes for everyone.

Freddie was fast asleep in lounge and came running in frantically looking for the kittens. They are stunning.

Hope you get to bottom of Peanut's problem soon.  I wonder if Lynn has seen the little Cody impersonators yet?

Jameson too - he woke up from his deepest coma-like sleep to try and find the kitties, desperately trying to get inside the computer. I was really quite touched, so had to film it!! Maybe he wouldn't mind a little brother or sister??

He's got beautiful markings as well - yummy cat!
