A New Feline Friend
Come and meet my new cat
Hello, friends and readers,
This is *another* quick post.
Time is slippery right now because here in the UK we are edging towards winter. As the parent of an asthmatic, I know this season means more medicine, some time off school, lots of doing less, and me being less productive. My carefully scheduled writing and editing time gets a knock, and is often the first plate to be dropped.
This year we have a new arrival too.
Meet Nutmeg.
She's approximately a year old, and was found about to give birth. She had her kittens at the shelter. We don't know what type of life she'd had before, but to not be microchipped (a legality here in UK) be pregnant and abandoned at aged one, it can't have been a good start.
She is quite nervous, but we are building up bonds through play and lots of treats.
She is so petite compared to Billy. Very much a lady-cat.
Have you rehomed a cat from a shelter before? I'd love to hear your stories.
Until next time 😽
Hello Nutmeg! 👋
My Mum adopted our cat Cherry from the RSPCA 14 years ago. He was settled within minutes of arriving! 😂 Straight onto the sofa, curled up asleep. And this was with him having ended up at the RSPCA after being hit by a car and having to have his tail removed! And we had another cat! He didn't care one bit. Very happy, bolshy little cat is now a very happy, bolshy old cat. 🐈⬛
Oh my goodness, hello Nutmeg. What a beauty and how wonderful that you've given her a lovely new home and life.
We adopted our cat Victor two and a bit years ago. I'm still taken aback daily by how much he's stolen my heart. He is just too adorable and funny. We weren't even fussed about cats before and now we are fully signed up obsessive cat parents and cat meme sharers.
