Kitten boom

May is upon us and so is the kitten season. Over the last week we have had a kitten boom. Here are our new arrivals.

Lily and her babies

 

Lily came into the centre with four tiny babies. The kittens are roughly around a week old. She has two blacks, one dark tortie and one tabby kitten.

This photo was taken today of the happy family.




Mary - found in a stable

Mary was brought into the centre as a stray she was found in a barn in Ashey. She came in with one tiny dark tortie kitten. We have been led to believe that Mary also had more kittens but sadly they didn't make it. Nature can be very brutal and the kittens didn't survive due to predation.

We began to notice that something wasn't right with Mary's one remaining kitten. Mary had almost given up hope as well. We unfortunately came in on Saturday morning to find that Mary's little baby had passed away in the night. We were all absolutely devastated. Mary seems to be coping well on her own. She is a wonderful cat and she deserves a happy life after all she has been through. She will be available for adoption very soon.

April's family

 

April came into the centre last week and gave birth to three adorable pale ginger kittens on Saturday. We are happy to say that April and her babies are doing really well. We captured this image of the happy family today.
