Had a phone call from a chap yesterday stating that he had to be out of his flat by Frday and had a seven week old kitten that needed homing.
Being more normal cynical self I thought it was probably an exxageration and she would be about 12 weeks old and he had been given notice for about a month and left it to the last minute as usual.
However, went and picked her up today and she is the most adorable little thing, maybe even younger than 7 weeks.
He and his girlfriend basically rescued her from a house where she was treated roughly only about a week and a half ago and then was given the shock of having to get out of his flat in just five days. totally believe their story and they were absolutely in love with her but knew they had to give her up. They gave me all her new toys, scratching post, bed and food and were really sorry to see her go, though they know it is best for her.
She is an absolute darling, her eyes haven't fully change from their blue yet, and she just loves humans. Have settled her in the kitchen and wll take some piccies later. She is black and white (what else would she be if she has come to me
) and her name was Jess, but seeing I have Jesse upstairs I am going to call her Fini, as she will have to be the last one in for a while as I am stacked to the rafters.
