A Thank You on Tuesday

Thank you to everyone who left such kind messages for the kittens.
It was heartwarming to read them and cheered us all up whilst our humans were busily wiping away kitten snot. Happily we can report that all three kittens are now over the little re-outbreak of flu and are restored to full kitteny health. Here they are...

Gabbi wants you to know that she loves the Pawparazzi and luxurious living befits her. Her tummy is better now and her eye surgery site is settling down beautifully.


Simon is still a little serious but his eye is much better and he has really enjoyed learning how to relax. He knows he will be a handsome mancat one day.


Ash loves humans even more now and has learned that sleeping under the duvet with humans is a very good hobby for a kitten. He is delighted to be snot free.

This has been a big reminder for our humans of just how much work fostering rescued kittens is. They have asked me to shout out all the kitten and cat fosterers everywhere for their hard work and dedication in helping out rescued felines in need.

Now, time for a veritable tsunami of kitten pictures...

Simon considers carefully who to pounce on next.


Ash is smiling because he has decided that being cosy is a good thing. He will use this smile to hypnotise his future humans.

Simon relaxes. For Simon, who was a worried little soul a week ago, relaxing is a big thing.


Gabbi thinks that Ash & Simon have been asleep for long enough..



...but decides to save the attack for later. Ash insists that Gabbi must be his pillow.


Gabbi has her eye on you!

Yesterday lunchtime, our humans took Gabbi, Ash & Simon back to the Vets. They are ready for rehoming now and will remain there, marketing themselves to the clients, until a good home is found for each of them. They were installed in a brand new (but as yet, not equipped) heated consulting room as their base. The Nurse who rescued them had made sure that they had lots of good, cosy beds, dens, boxes to play in and a shed load of toys. She will make sure that the kittens only go to homes that are experienced with felines and have an understanding of kittens with health issues.
The Nurse was very pleased to see that all the kittens had put on weight and grown, despite having had the snots and tummy issues. She worked very hard when these kittens were rescued and it's a testament to her nursing skill and compassion that they survived at all. We had the easy part in fostering them. In a few weeks we will be able to show you some pictures of the state these little ones were in when they were rescued.
Our humans were sad to say goodbye to the kittens, but will be visiting them again (and again) as they are just around the corner from our home. There will be more kittens to foster from the hoarding situation in the future so it looks like the rest of us had better get used to being neglected.

We've been pretty relaxed about not being allowed into the bedroom to meet the kittens. Gerry has touched noses with Simon via the window (no actual touching) Oliver sat on the outside window ledge, gazing in upon the kittens and licking his lips, he was besotted and really wanted to get in the room to give them all a good licking. Angel happily spent time she would usually spend in HER bedroom, asleep in various cat beds on the sofa and me, Wuudler, I gave the kittens some good puffy sniffs under the bedroom door, providing them with some tuition in how to avoid taking their medicine. Gerry managed to slither past human legs to get into the bedroom but was so shocked he ran straight out. He also had a game of paper-bag-under-the-door with Gabbi. Oliver poked his floofy chops around the door once, just to check all was well.

We have earned ourselves some salmon for this kitten enduring patience I tell you.

Humans take note.

We hope every cat has a Terrific Tuesday!
