2 days into fostering this cutey - 'Angelo', and I'm already a smitten-kitten 😍 He is a total cuddle-bug, purr-machine, very playful, and loves nuzzling his face on mine 🥰
Angelo was rescued by Animal Welfare Gozo about a week ago. He was stuck alone in a rubble wall, with no sign of his mum or siblings. He's about 5-6 weeks old, eating solid food and using his litter tray independently.
I'll be fostering him for 3 weeks, then he'll go back to his first foster Mummy Amy Victoria Stuart-Hill, who already had a holiday booked before Angelo was rescued.
He will be available for adoption in a few weeks time.
I'm gutted that this gorgeous boy got returned to the shelter just 2.5 days after getting adopted, because the landlord won't allow cats 😢
What makes it even worse is that Otis had settled right into his new home from day one; gently eating treats out of the hands of the 2 year old that lives there with her parents; snuggling up on his adopters and sleeping with them at night 😭
Associations like Animal Welfare Gozo have their job made even harder by landlords who won't accept pets, and adopters who don't bother getting permission for pets from their landlord.
Well I didn't expect that 😅

Currently pet-sitting these gorgeous girls for a few days, for the second time round. Such a delight to look after these ladies, as they're super low-maintenance (no fighting like my naughty boy cats), affectionate, cuddly, and lap-loving😍
Playing 'run for your treats' with Mocha 😍
Indoor cats need extra stimulation and play-time to stop them getting bored, frustrated and fat. Getting them to run for their treats gives their mind, body and senses a fun workout 😊

Introducing Slavka, the super cute kitten I'm currently pet-sitting (and a not-so-welcome-cameo from my double chin!) 😍
Currently petsitting Little & Large, aka Amelie and Marcel. The little one, Amelie is definitely the boss - she keeps going in Marcel's huge bed, instead of her own smaller one 😅
Playtime with Cookie and Pepper ❤
This was a short, home pop-in service, so that their owners could go out for a few hours 😊
Mocha knows how to ask me for what she wants 😅😍

Playing 'run for your treats' with Mocha ❤
Mocha had the zoomies and was racing after the ball whem I threw it - until I started filmimg that is 😅
#petsitter #petsitting
Mocha's super chilled after some 'Cat TV' (watching the birds on the terrace) 😍
She's shown absolutely no anxiety since the minute I arrived to pet-sit her this time. So I'm officially her trusted companion while her Daddy is away 🥰

My current petsitting gig includes looking after about 15 tortoises, but I've not seen more than 6 at once, as most of them hide from me 😅
Beau's a proper lapdog 😅😍

Bentley treats me like a Queen
Bentley must think i'm a queen, because he walks backwards after addressing me 🤣😍
Bentley pretending to be viscious with his stuffed toy 😅
Looking after this cutey again 😍 He's a big softy, except for with his stuffed toys 😅

Playtime with Bentley, the Rhoedesian Ridgeback
More cuteness from Bentley - he was so happy after a little game of 'run for your treats', that he then picked up his squeaky toy and wanted me to throw it for him to 'hunt' for the next 15 minutes 😅
Great to see him coming out of his shell from day 2 of our time together to initiate play and cuddles. He also chose to sleep in bed with me from the 2nd night 😍
Looking forward to seeing him again for a few hours on Friday, and a few more days of overnight sitting at the end of the month 🥰

Rhodesian Ridgeback has to work for his treats!
Bentley's a sweet old boy, who's a bit on the lazy side, but highly motivated by food (a good description of me too!) 🥰
He's been moping a bit since his parents went away, so after discovering that he likes edamame beans (and that they're a safe snack for dogs), I made him work for a few of them 😄
He loved the game, and even started playing with his toys after (which I'd had no luck in getting him to do in the last 24 hours) 😍
