HOLD EVERYTHING

[gayalondiel_bak]

Lucky, the cat we took in on Friday (that we thought was a neutered male), managed to escape. (We don't know how, she seems to be able to open doors. Like a velociraptor.)

Yesterday evening the neighbours found her again. Up a tree. With five kittens, we think about six weeks old.

So, neither neutered nor male, it seems.

All have been captured and the various neighbours involved are housing three kittens between them, which leaves Lucky plus two to come to me, at least temporarily. Now that we know she's a non-lactating young mother I am even more concerned to get her to a vet asap. The kittens all look terribly healthy. Apparently when the neighbours sent their son up the tree he found loads of sachets of food that she had been nicking from somewhere and ripping into to provide food for the little ones.

I have been out to buy kitten stuff and plan to spend the day building a barricade for the spare bedroom door...

We think she's part Maine Coon, and Gothette has seen them open doors before, they've got a good jump on them. All the kittens are climbers (well, if you were born up a tree, you probably would be too).

Everything prepared, waiting anxiously for the call to go get them. And completely stuck on the sodding ww prompt today.

ETA: I take that back, I just got the most cracky idea. And you thought Narnia was bad...
