very young ginger and white kitten, rescued by my dad when he saw a group of seagulls attacking something, went to find out what as they werent leaving it alone and found this small guy filthy dirty and scared to death. after a few hours in a cardboard box while dad finished work, he went home, they expected a grey kitten but when they bathed him he turned out ginger and white but hes still not 100% clean. my dad works at the coalworks so its coal dust this little guy was covered in. and they gradually tamed him over the past week and a half. there is a large colony of feral cats and this little kitten was one of them, he was hissing and spitting and nobody could touch him, now hes happy and purring and loves people.
hes been wormed and deflead, and fed up as he was terribly skinny. they have completely litter trained him in the past week too. he eats both wet and dry food. they would have kept him but on tuesday they had a new baby so the kitten simply wasnt getting the attention he needed. we have taken him in so that he isnt getting ignored and left in the cage but we cannot keep him and need to find him a new home asap. he does have a strange front paw, he walks and runs, jumps and everything, plays lots, but when he walks on it it is a bit of a different angle to the other front paw. they havent taken him to a vets as money was too tight, and it took a lot to convince them it was for the kittens best interest to rehome. we think it is a boy but dont know 100%.
we have a cat of our own, and he wont allow another cat in the house, so this little guy needs to find his own forever home asap. hes a beautifully marked ginger and white, with dark ginger stripes on his ginger patches, he has blue eyes at the moment but that could be due to his age. he is small, unsure on how old, but hes piling on the weight by the day and seems very healthy. he would need collecting from hemswell cliff in lincolnshire. he will go with whatever food is left over, there are several tins at the moment.
