Sometimes Doggie big brothers are very useful as we found when we had one of ours missing for 5 days over christmas - her doggie brothers took us to where she was 30 foot up a tree - we kept calling them back as we don't usually walk in that section of the woods as its full of rabbit burrows!

She is a cutie though and looks like you will have another stunner in the family :Luv2:

Oh wow, Zara is the spitting image of my brother's cat Phoebe who had to be pts last year  :'(

On a happier note, Roxy is gorgeous! Poor little girl, who on earth could be so horrible as to abandon such a sweetie? Give your clever boy an extra big hug from me for finding her  :)

I'm rather hoping that it doesn't happen regularly enough for us all to stumble across adorably sweet kittens..... ;)

She is a cutie, though as is her "big sister."

i must say i would never have found her if it wasn't for the dog, and if he was brilliantly well trained and came when i called him i'd have never gone over to him to see what he was so interested in.

so here's a pic of little roxy's hero

I'd say she was a tad over 5 weeks judging from the photos but not much. Maybe 6 weeks. Not ideal to be on 100% cat food as they still benefit from mum's milk at that age. Where are you? I don't suppose you are anywhere near Canterbury? If you were I could give you some cimicat to mix in with her meat.  :shy:

Be wary about giving her too much tuna or other human food. Her liver can't cope with the salt content at that age. Good old fashioned kitten food is what she needs.  ;)

She's an absolute peach. I'm not surprised you are clinging on to her.  :naughty: :hug: :hug:

dont worry she's not having much, just a tiny amout, the dog has most (have to mix some meat with his dinner every day)

vet thinks about 6 weeks now.

Can I suggest "Spice" as a name  :) It suits her colouring and her personality if she has attitude. I hate trying to choose pet names for kittens as it is so hard to find the name that is "them".

P.S: Beware calling kittens things like Minxy Moo whilst you think of a name for them, I now have a 2 year old Minxy Moo as it has stuck since she was 4 weeks old  :evillaugh:

OMG she is sooooo gorgeous and she looks like a healthy little soul.  Such a shame about her little sibiling (RIP litte one).  It's great that Zara is looking after her as she will be able to teach her good manners and how to play nicely which can often be a problem with kittens that are taken from their mummy too early.

Little Miss Tortietude is a very very lucky girl to have been found by you and to be welcomed into your home and family  :hug:

i thought about precious, but that implies somethign sweet, well she can be sweet, but she has attitude, would be like calling a pitbull used for fighting (not been breedist, just an example) fluffy. lol
