you definately did a great job for the little ones Julie and the pictures speak volumes!

So pleased to hear that they are happy and settled in their new home and by the sounds of things it is going to be an amazing home for the, :)

Give yourself a well deserved pat on the back and a treat or two as you deserve it ;)

I know what you mean about things going quiet when the kittens go... its amazing how quiet it gets despite there being plenty of adults! lol

They really are gorgeous kittens, and I am so glad that they have such a wonderful home, it does make it all worthwhile. And I know what you mean about the house being too quiet Julie!!

Just want to say that Julie did a great job with these kittens and just so happened i had a lovely home line up for them, and these lovely people stuck through thick and thin waiting for them... We dont get people like that every often and again it was a call i spent ages on the phone to telling them we didnt have any cutie ready healthy and waiting kittens ready yet.. BUT we did have some that were going through a bad patch and abit unwell and not sure if they will pull through, but what about them, and would you wait until they were ready to go.. AND by darn they said YES>>>>>>>>>>>>>!

Unbelievable... normally i never mention cats that are not ready for rehoming when i get calls, but sometimes you get vibes and you realise that these people are so nice that they might take on a poorly puss cat and take a leap of faith.. As it happens these two pulled through and just makes one think that if i hadnt spent an extra few minutes on the phone we would of missed these lovely people giving these two very lucky kittens a lovely home.


and the donation  has help as you can imagine the hefty vet bill we have had for these kittens.. some of which never made it of course..
Cannot save the world, but if everyone does something we can have a jolly good job trying too....

Aw, shucks!  :smile: You guys are so kind!  :blow kiss: It could go to a girl's head, you know!  :evillaugh:

Teresa, those are lovely words. Actually, OH used to be a professional photographer and he does seem to have a gift in getting them to 'watch the birdie'.  :evillaugh: Yes, these kittens have aged me the odd decade or so but I do feel like I've run a marathon and reached the finishing post without needing an ambulance.  :) Of course, I will still see the little faces of the ones who didn't make it for quite some time.  :'(

The couple that took them are absolutely first rate and I couldn't have wished for a better home for them. The husband quietly emptied his wallet and squeezed a fistful of notes in my hand as they left. So a great start on paying the bills for this lot!  :wow:  :evillaugh:  And they had the wonderful thought of calling us an hour or so later after getting home to tell us Romney and Hythe had already eaten, seemed to quite like their new quarters, and had come up to them for cuddles.  :naughty:

I have already emailed Sharon and Caroline to say I'm willing to be 'on take' for the next batch we get asked to take.... it's too ruddy quiet here already!  :rofl:

Julie you have done such a wonderful job with these little ones,they may have aged you years but they will have made you so much stronger too. Well Done.

Do you think you could come to my place and get all my kitties to sit still for a photo, I`ve still not mastered the art after all these years :rofl:

Romney and Hythe will be going to their forever home tomorrow!  :yesss: :yesss: :yesss:

The couple came to see them this evening and can't wait to take them home. I had to remind them they need to get some provisions in first because they really wanted to take them home tonight.  :evillaugh: A wonderful couple who listening intently to all my instructions and will spoil the boys rotten.  :Flowers:

The kittens still have the trots on occasion, but Rob the vet thinks this is due to mild food intolerance due to their very poor weaning. We've tried everything to clear it up so we know it can't be worms or a virus. We expect they'll grow out of it in time. Apart from that, they are little jumping beans of naughtiness.

We will have a photo shoot before they go, which I've been trying to find time for so really must make the effort. For a change, I won't be sad to wave them goodbye. I'll be jumping up and down with pride and I expect a tear or two of relief will fall.  :blow kiss:

They have just returned from another visit to Rob for a once over before we let them go. He's very pleased with their overal condition but doesn't want to vac yet just in case they have a reaction. So if the prospective new owners are prepared to carry on the groundwork of building them up with good quality food, and bring them back for vac and retesting, we will let them go probably at the weekend. We do have a couple interested in their profile, but they haven't viewed them yet as they were waiting until we felt happy Romney and Hythe are going to thrive. They seem really nice people and have been asking about how they're doing every few days, and will come to see them for the first time on Friday. :)

I'll try to get some more piccies later. Romney has turned into a prissy bossy-boots and is constantly grooming his little brother Hythe as he thinks Hythe is too small to do it himself.  :evillaugh:

Rob says we still need to retest in 2 months and they can't be rehomed with other cats, just in case. But they are turning into complete nutters and trashing the place and look so fit and healthy now... I think we're in the clear!  :sneaky:
