Yep, same with me really, never had cats as a child. But then, one of the many (grrrraaahh makes me mad) cats they have next door (which they care very little for, shut out all night, left to fend for themselves etc), which they only got to keep the rats they had away, had kittens. There is a few that have had kittens, they never get them neutered. One of their cats who lives in the shed, has had 3 litters this summer, i feed it every day, poor little mite. Anyway, im ranting.....
So basically they would shut this other cat out all night, and every time i let Mickey out in the garden it would run in ours, i fed it, stroked it and off it went. Then it started to come in and run up the stairs, we think so she didn't have to go back out. Anyway she was getting bigger and bigger so we knew she was pregnant. We just said 'ok she's ours now, she can have her babies here and we'll give them good homes'. Baring in mind she was barely a year old and about to give birth, a tiny cat she is too. So the time came, she had a big box, papered and comfy, she gave birth to SEVEN kittens. However, we started to name them, we gave 3 to friends, and kept 4 (yes we only intended to keep one haha). Molly, Teddy, Daisy, and Gizmo because that one looks kinda like a Gremlin
All lovely, all have their own characters. Sadly, my boy, the only boy Teddy, got ran over and died 3 weeks after Mickey passed. It was rough!
Here are some pictures |
....awww, that was so incredibly tough to have lost the boy just after Mickey...
..it’s almost as if he might have not wanted Mickey to feel scared or lonely...so, there he was with him...?...Great names, btw...
...
...because I’d personally never known cats or kittens, I read up quite a bit when I became grandparent to them, which I’m prone to do with stuff...and the ‘psychology’ of them being abandoned as they were and obviously being brother and sister and how they relate to each other in their differences more than their similarities is very interesting actually...and it probably sounds weird but it does make complete sense as well ...because they really are so different but their love for each other is so obvious and so strong...
...the first pic that you posted, Swan..?...they’re my grandkittens, you’ve stolen them...the tabby and ginger, they’re so like them..ginger is the guy, tabby is the lady and oh, what a lady...
...the cushions are gorgeous...
..there are also some sites which I found last year at Christmas...where you can upload a pic or a collage of pics and have many different things made...I had a movie night in snuggle blanket made for their human parents, with some of my favourite pics of their two cat children...you can choose text options to add as well...but it is more personal and lovely when it’s someone you know like that lady...
