Poor Stripes 💔

11/10/2024

Stripes is still so sad after being let down at the weekend.
Look how unhappy he is poor beautiful boy. 💔
He misses his friend Oscar so much, who, by the way is having the time of his life.
He hopes all our followers are sharing his picture in the hope of finding his very own person to love. 💞

07/10/2024

Saturday was a happy day for Oscar but a sad day for Stripes, this is there story.

My friend Oscar & I were both being adopted on the same day.
We were sad to be leaving each other & our friends but so excited about a home & family of our own. It was great news we were leaving on the same day then we wouldn’t feel bad leaving the other behind.

Oscars new family came to
collect him, they where all excited and couldn’t wait to take him home. Oscar was pretty nervous but we had a chat, Tom to Tom & off he went.

I waited & waited in anticipation for my family to collect me. I was happy, & nervous, excited & sad all at the same time.

As the day went on I started to lose hope, then Aunty Caroline came and cuddled me, telling me not to be sad, my new family are not coming, she said “one day, the right family will take you home & love you like we do”

My little heart sank, why I asked myself.
I was on my best behaviour, I gave them lots of affection, I fell in love with them as soon as we met. I really thought they felt the same way about me. Why else would they say I could go home with them?

I’m very disappointed and really hope one day the right person will love me like I deserve to be loved.

If that person is reading my post, please contact Caroline on 642 564 803 and take me home with you 💞

How can something so small make you drop your phone whilst filming!

This is little Percy, who I think could have been called Sid, after hissing Sid!!

Percy is our little rescue who was found in a plastic bag in the bin.
Luckily for him, he was heard and brought into us. Thank goodness for his loud meowing.

He’s very scared & confused at the moment but with time, love & affection he will make a lovely family pet, he’s such a cutie, with a larger than life personality and amazing instinct to survive.

We are sure someone, some where would love to take this little one into their heart & home

Oscar has been adopted! 🎉
We are so happy for him & his new family.

He is a shy boy so it is taking him a while to explore his new home.

We know it won’t take him long to settle in and look forward to visiting him very soon.

Have an amazing life Oscar, you deserve the very best 💕💕

This little boy was found in a plastic bag by the bins.
Can you imagine what it must have been like for him to been left to starved to death or even suffocate!
The fear this poor little soul must of felt having been thrown away like a piece of rubbish through no fault of his own is terrifying.
We would like to thank the kind couple that rescued him & brought him to a safe place.
He has been named Percy & will be vet checked, vaccinated when old enough and hopefully adopted very soon.
He is only about 5 weeks old and has already suffered so much in his short life he really deserves the best life ever.
If you can find it your heart & home to spoil this boy for the rest of his life then please reserve him today.

Can you imagine the conversations going on for these cats ???
Oi mate, what’s it like out there?
I don’t know, give me a leg up so I can see more!
That’s not how you do it, you get on the ledge.
Not if Oscar is there.
Don’t be such babies, just get on there.
Sugar….we’re losing the food bowl!
Boys, this is how it’s done on the outside, you help yourself when the homans have gone!!

Hiii

I’m home!!!

Boots is back in the building

29/09/2024

Do you remember our lovely kitten Boots?
Well, he has been to stay with us for the weekend & has just gone back to his Mama.

Hi, I’m Boots, I have an amazing family who love the fact that I’m a total nosey nightmare.
I love being into everything & I mean, everything!
The toilet is one of my passions & if I can’t get in it I’ll sit on my mamas lap while she uses it.
The curtains are my favourite, I will climb up them & jump from the top! 🙈
I will play ball too, yeah yeah, I hear you say, that’s for dogs! Well, let me tell you now, it’s not, you roll any bit of paper up into a ball, throw it & I will bring it back to you!
I love my mama & papa very much, aunty Caroline comes a close third! 😻
She rescued me you see & found me the perfect parents so I gotta love her for that.
I have just been back to see my friends & made some new ones too. Although Oscar was very grumpy with me, I think
he needs to find a lovely mama like mine then he will be happy again.
I have had a very busy weekend building a cat tree & playing with new toys & my new friends.
My mama & papa couldn’t believe it when I fell asleep on Aunty Carolines lap when I got home, I’m exhausted!
Don’t tell them will you but I’ve been up all night partying with the ladies 🥰🥰🥰

Tilly & Saphir are our 2nd pair to be neutered.
Thank you to Aunty Pauline for the donation to cover the cost. They are both ready for their forever home.

I’m Tilly an unusual grey with exceptional markings so I’ve been told.
No one told me I was going to the vets so it was a bit of a shock when I didn’t get breakfast & went out in the car with my friend Saphir.

I’m Saphir, previously known as Sapphire but then I developed my jewels. I was a late starter one day I had nothing then would you believe I grew a pair of ping pong balls!!
Not any more tho, that woman took me out with Tilly and now they have gone!
Ezra & Momo was telling me last week this may happen but we didn’t believe them.
They both are okay tho so it cannot be too bad.
I’m sore & sleepy so Tilly & I are going to cuddle up and sleep 😻😻
We are getting ready to meet that special person who will love us forever

Have you ever seen such beautiful blue eyes, how can anyone pass her by?
Wouldn’t she make an awesome companion for someone special?

Ezra & Momo are the first two to be neutered, paid for by their foster mummy who we would like to say a big thank you.

They had to queue jump Saphir & Tilly in the program, I’ll let Ezra explain why!

Hi to all you Kitty Cat lovers.

I’m Ezra, not a happy boy, I can tell you!
Yesterday was a bit of a “sore” day & today’s even worse!

My foster mum said, let’s go for a ride in the car, we love the car.
So, there we are, all excited thinking we are going to aunty Pauline’s then realised this isn’t our usual route!
The journey wasn’t very long & we ended up at THE VETS!!!

She left us there too, can you believe it???
We had a nice sleep tho & mum picked us both up to come home after lunch.
Oi mum, not only did we miss our breakfast we missed lunch too!!!

We slept some more at home but on checking myself out I realised, I’ve come back with something missing, in-fact, a lot missing, not meaning to brag!
I keep checking & checking & now I realise what has happened.
That woman, who says she loves me has had my crown jewels removed. I loved those bad boys too!
All because I have fallen in love with Momo,

I’m Momo’s toy boy you know, she may look cute & innocent but she’s a bad influence on me, honestly, she is!

What happened was, we thought we would have a little experiment while our mum was asleep but unfortunately she woke up 🙈
Caught us right in the act!!

It probably didn’t help that we where on her bed, a definite no no so I’ve been given to understand 🫣

At least we went to the vets together, the Mrs has come home with a sore tummy so a little grumpy, but what’s new!

My friends have told me once we heal, we can experiment all we want & not get into anymore trouble.

Well worth it, I’d say 😻😻
So, I’m signing off now, want to have one last check of my bits incase it’s all just a bad dream, then I’m gonna cuddle up with the Mrs for the rest of the night.

Roll on the healing process & more experimenting 🤣

"If you see me in your garden, please help me out! I’m just a little hedgehog, trying to survive. Here’s how you can help:
🐾 Please give me some raw, unsalted meat, ground meat, or even some cat food (just not fish). Water is great, but please don’t give me milk—while it may seem kind, it causes stomach problems and can dehydrate me.
🚫 No milk! I’ll drink it if I see it, but it can really harm me.
Also, please avoid using insecticides or traps. I’m harmless, and I help your garden by eating those pesky insects that attack your veggies. My species is endangered, and we need your help to stay alive and healthy. Together, we can create a better world for all creatures, big and small. 🌱🦔 Thank you for your kindness! "

We have been to visit Nala, now called Tiggy who was adopted on 25th June.

Tiggy by name, Tiggy by nature. I’m such a busy boy, always out & about.
I love my homemade rope toy.
I have asked my mama if she will make some for the other kittens that got left behind.
I’m a very chatty boy and my bestest trick is bringing into the house, cockroaches to play with. My mama doesn’t like it much but it’s worth doing, just to see the look of horror on her face!
I know I have friends still looking for a loving home like mine so please, if you have room in your home and space in your heart for some extra loving, then please, make a kitten happy and take it home with you 💕
