Meet Anna
Having been offered a number of kittens that never materialised, we decided to kidnap Anna from the nearby park. Mother and rest of litter conspicuously absent. Difficult to accurately age, still with baby blue eyes, so seemingly quite under weight for her devlopment.
She's instantly toilet trained and munching first stage kitten soft food. Determined to find a nipple on my arm, so assume was still on mother's milk.
Infested with fleas, which after some powder and a bath and prolonged body searches seem to have been defeated.
Cute would be an appropriate description.
Now at the end of November, she's still a kitten, loves to ambush anyone walking by. Loves the sideways walk with ears pricked and also does the cutest flat ears look. Not very bright, daft as a brush, but adorable!.
Don't need to get her spade until Jan/Feb as won't become active until the longer days of spring. Debating whether or not to let her have one litter. A tough call!
Still adorable
A most delightful puddy cat
Particularly
Doesn't really do cuddles in the day, but will come for a snuggle after a meal...
When Asleep!
And happy to crash and burn for 15 seconds of zzzzzs
First night
Tucking into finely chopped goat's cheese. Formula milk and first solids arrived next morning.
More pictures to follow and she rarely keeps still!
So who doesn't sleep like this?
Both back legs behind her ears!
Loves a log fire!
Getting nicely toasted in front of the roaring wood burner.
She's a mad cat, will happily run 30ft+ up the walnut and mulberry trees, chasing sparrows and the great tits. Don't think she fully thought this through! The birds just tease her and fly from one side of the tree to the other.
Guilty
Anna isn't allowed on the table, though makes frequent attempts. Had popped out of the kitchen for two minutes to find her very comfortable on my laptop. She wouldn't make eye contact! Such a tink.
Make yourself at home
Spoilt rotten, she loves a good sprawl in front of the fire.
At peace with the world
One content cat!
Clean Cat
Gave up on the hibernation attempt when she realised she was hungry.
Call a spayed a spade
Have a vague recollection of when we had our UK cats spayed that there was a neat small incision on one side... here they've used a chainsaw.. She's recovering well, still not allowed outside, though she's escaped half a dozen times!
Mouse Watch
A favourite early morning vantage point, patiently waiting for the meeces to join the party.
