04•10•24 - More. Stray. Cats! 🤪

Welcome to my 2nd lot of halloween/scary themed babies. I did actually let them choose their names but they didn't suit them so I had to change 2 🙄 We have one female (white collar) and 3 male. Unfortunately no mum this time. They were found in a bush when the weather was dreadful. A member of the public dried them and brought them in to be checked over, but due to their age we kept them in. Rescues are still full and in my personal opinion their spaces are needed for older cats and those in need of veterinary or longterm treatment, not kittens.

I've also been asked to take a little feral stray which I'll post next, but im hoping by bringing him into this litter it will make him more confident and rehabilitate him a little. Fingers crossed 🤞

Yesterday I took on 4 stray kittens that a lady had brought into work. She said she had found them in her garden 2 weeks prior and had been feeding them, but no mother had returned. Initially they got lots of cuddles from staff but once I worked more closely with them they really are extremely nervous and not fond of people.

I brought them home early hours of this morning and have contained them in just one room as usual. Luckily they’re at an age where they can eat kitten food, but they are always hungry and occasionally hiss and fight each other for food despite there being plenty. They still are extremely wary of humans including me and won’t let me touch them or get very close unless I’m stationary. It’s going to take a while for me to be able to get them comfortable enough to be rehomed which initially I didn’t think would be a problem! Today, after more research, I’m going to make their space a lot smaller for them to trust me more before I allow open space. I guess food will be enough to tempt them!

Whoever takes these beautiful but fierce babies will need plenty of time to show them a lot of love, and ideally they’d need to be indoor cats, spayed and vaccinated at earliest possibility. Due to their nature I’d be interested in them going in pairs.

One male tabby is extremely scared of everything including water and has not been drinking due to this (basically anything that moves). Hopefully they will all get to learn most humans are nice! 🤍

Minnie🤍

Minnie was left at the vets overnight with a colleague, but this morning she started to open mouth breath which is very serious in cats. She was placed in oxygen from 8am, her temperature dropped and she was hypoglycaemic. She was given glucoboost and the vets were trying to warm her up but she also had stopped eating.

She passed on her own today at 11am 💔 She had starting foaming at the mouth and had a lot of diarrhea.

I wouldn’t normally post something this detailed but it’s the reality of what these poor babies go through and these were not even 2 days old. It’s so frustrating when it can be stopped simply by either neutering cats if they are mainly outdoor, or being responsible. As well as the kittens the mum was also likely stray as the member of public had said she was very dirty and skinny. Thankfully she caught her and we advised on where to send her for help.

All 4 babies are now together and not in any pain 🤍

* DISCLAIMER - tough read *
Henry 🤍
Last night the most perfect boy had to be put to sleep. His leg had started to turn purple/black like his siblings and he was fussier with food. I didn’t feel like he was doing okay so had him checked and within 20 minutes he was silently crying in pain and likely started to lose feeling in his legs. He started struggling with breathing and was put to sleep around 9:20pm with me there the whole time.

Unfortunately this is the harsh but constant reality for stray female cats. PLEASE neuter your babies and prevent this from happening.

The story of Henry & Minnie 🖤🤍

These little angels were brought in as a walk in last night at the vets after a member of public found the stray mum and her 4 kittens in her garden. The mum ran off and the lady brought the kittens straight to a vet as they were all tangled in umbilical cord. Henry’s cord was tightly wrapped around the legs of 2 of the other kittens not pictured here who unfortunately had to be put to sleep as they were dying, and their circulation had been cut from their legs which had turned purple/black and they were struggling for breath. Henry’s back leg also suffered but he seemed okay so I offered to foster both remaining babies to give them a chance at life 🤍

Having babies not even 12hours old comes with many risks and low survival rate. It also means feeding every 2 hours, stimulating to poo/wee after nearly every feed. They’re at high risk of hypoglycaemia, low temperature and aspiration due to being hand reared.

I took them home last night and woke every 1.5-2 hours to feed and toilet, and all seemed well. Please see next post 💟

Who can put these little faces to sleep 🥺 I completely understand in the farming world it’s difficult to have multiple males for many reasons. I would have kept them myself but my mum would probably have me move out & wouldn’t appreciate the early morning living alarm clock 😆

I contacted a few contacts including farms which again couldn’t take due to them being male. Finally a friend helped me contact a guy named Ben who works in a pet shop I occasionally do business with, and he’s already got one quail and was looking to get more. Kindly he offered to take them on & I’m very grateful these guys get the perfect home 🖤 (video in next post)

Well this was a first yesterday 😆
A lady came into one of the vets practises and asked for x3 of her 15 week old silkie roosters to be put to sleep, presumably as they are male. The team there couldn’t let that happen so posted if anybody would be able to rehome. Unfortunately only one lady could take one, so I of course offered to take the other two with full intentions of finding them the perfect home 🤍🖤 (see next post)

Ricky came to us for boarding several weeks ago while his family were away, but unfortunately now his previous owner needs to work away so he decided to rehome Ricky as he doesn’t have as much time for him now. He’s a lovely leucistic axolotl. He should fit right in with our bunch here, but if not he may be rehomed in the future 🖤

I can’t believe how big these guys are!! Meadow was the name I gave but they changed Ror’s name initially to Mouse, but recently he’s officially been named Dudley which apparently means ‘dry field’ in old English, so matches meadow a little more ❤️ I get updated from their owner all the time and it’s so lovely to see how loving they have turned out 🥰

My beautiful baby in his new home. He’s gotten so big now 🥰🖤 Angus was actually one I was going to keep but decided to rehome so he had a friend he could grow up with & this cutie has helped him settle in so well ❤️

The beautiful Tilly in her new home 💕 So grateful I was able to get her out of a kennel a little faster 🥰

Brought her new mum to meet ‘Tilly’ to see if she thought she’d be the perfect fit. She’d been in temporary foster for 5 days with a colleague and her younger dog & although she was doing really well she just wanted cuddles and Charlie the pup just wanted to play! 😄 She’s gone to her new home with two young girls who adore animals and their parents, and she’ll be given all the attention she deserves 💕

This happy girl was brought in as a stray & after a certain length of days she would be going to the dog warden & the rehoming centre. I knew I’d have someone perfect for her so all being well I could get her the perfect home to stop her going all through the rehoming process🤍🤍

Meadow 🧡 My beautiful and only girl! She’s the smallest out of this batch of fosters but she definitely does not have the smallest meow 😆 She’s super loud and has even howled (yes, howled) several times for food or attention. She loves to play fight with her brothers but also does love affection off us too. I’ll be sad to see her go but glad she’s going with R 🥰

Angus 💚 The trouble maker 🙄 Always wants a fight but he’s the most affectionate baby. He loves kissing your face & is a little obsessed with sitting with us 😄 He loves to fight with his siblings and wind them up constantly. At the moment he’s staying with me but may be rehomed at a later date 🥰

Rorschach 💙 Sad that he’ll be going on Friday but he’s going with his sister which makes me feel a little better. He used to be the most troublesome but I think Angus has taken his place, although they still fight constantly & Meadow is always there for snuggles afterwards🥰

UPDATE: We lost George on Tuesday. I had to go to the hospital and he had passed away when I got home. I miss him already x

My little Georgie 🤍 I feel like I’ve not posted much good news recently 🥹 George was doing really well & was the strongest one when I first took them in, but over the last 3 days he decline really quickly. I noticed him beginning to shake quite badly on Friday night but that morning he’d done off his milk and was fighting me a lot to not take it. He then couldn’t lift his head much so I took him straight to the vets. They partially diagnosed him with cerebellar hypoplasia - a neurological condition which causes him to be unbalanced. YouTube has quite a lot of videos if anybody was interested & they’re quite short. I’m hoping he has it very mild but if severe even though he won’t be in any pain or require treatment/meds, he will struggle to get around and couldn’t be left for too long. As he’s still not eating much I’ve increased the amount of times I feed him again and today he’s been taking 6ml each time very reluctantly! I’m hoping we can get him strong again, but as you can see from the last video even him sitting down cause him to shake & fall. Georgie will need a very special home when ready where he can be an indoor cat only 🤍
