We have been getting funny wet stuff from the sky since early yesterday evening. Yeah!
Its supposed to continue today, break tomorrow then a further three days, its so needed
The pool has been topped up by about four inches already
Mind you its driving the furries wild, they go from one door to the other in hope its not wet there then brave it and come back very soggy lol
Talking of furries, last Wednesday Rebecca was taking a walk around her village when she spotted a young lad with a rucksack depositing something by the bins, he ran away and as she passed she realised it was two tiny kittens, no more than 4 weeks old
A Spanish couple had walked passed in front of her and didn't bat and eyelid, but Rebecca scooped them up. popped them in her jumper and took them home.
She realised one of them had a broken leg, so she took them round to the vets for a check.
Yep, one broken leg, but too young to do anything about it except hope it mended well.
Her two cats were none too pleased a having their space invaded and she knew she couldn't keep them, the vets had told her they don't rehome. Good old social media after a couple of posts one of the kittens was rehomed, but no one wanted the poorly one.
One of the local shelters first said she was out of their area, then they would only take him if he came with a sizable donation!
Having gone to stay with Rebecca for a couple of days, I´m sure you have guessed the rest of the story! lol I just couldn´t see this beautiful black and white kitten with a lovely temprement being put in a large cage with older ones only to have his leg hurt even more.
He just had to come home with me
So I´m pleased to introduce you to Felix
He looks quite big here, but he is really tiny.
He is so sweet and after another check up with our vets, I´m pleased to say he is getting better, compensating a little still, but bouncing around so perhaps it was more of a green stick fracture
He loves to snuggle up in my cowl neck jumper and has great fun tossing the mice I knitted around, dancing and chasing anything he can. The others? some walk away, others sniff then wash him
As usual Chris had to video camera to hand and this is what he caught
At the moment he is sitting on the sofa fascinated by the rivers of rain pouring from the roof
Hours of entertainment, along with a pin cushion leg from his climbing lol
Better go and see what the little rascal is up to
take care

He is adorable, he is now exploring the rest of the house xcx
DeleteDear Chrissie
ReplyDeletePeople can be so cruel - how could they dump those poor little kittens? I am delighted to hear that they have both found lovely new homes and Felix is a cutie! He lives up to his name. I hope he will have a long and happy life with you and look forward to following his progress. Thank goodness for people like you!
Best wishes
Ellie
Unfortunately it happens a lot here,they leave them by the bins so they will be found, usually by soft hearted brits! The change in him in one week is tremendous. I think he likes being number ten! xcx
DeleteAwww, how cute is he? I can just never imagine anyone being so cruel as to dump a couple of kittens, thank goodness that Rebecca was there to help them. As I was reading your post I knew where it was heading, haha. I wouldn't have resisted either. We used to have a cat and he looked just like Felix when he was a kitten. I'm sure he'll bring lots of fun and frolics to your home, even if the other cats think he's a pest, haha.
ReplyDeleteWe lost Willa just before New year, she just went awol, she was such a light cat it could even have been an eagle. So Felix is now our number ten, he is now so lively, into every thing, poorly leg? what poorly leg lol. xcx
