Happy ending for feral kittens.

Well, it's only taken 6 months+ for FCW to find home for 2 feral kittens we rescued back in December. Mum was being fed by a lovely couple, but had already lost several a litters of kittens, and the latest litter went from 4 kittens to 2, we think, when 2 were taken by a huge barn owl that lives in the churchyard that backs onto the garden. I will never forget 2 looong coooooold frosty December night vigils sitting in a back garden in Liversedge with thermals and torches trying to get the last kitten (the other ones had been caught several days before). We wanted both and Mum was to be TNR'd and we wanted the kittens to stay together.

Here they are at play with Mum:

This is Pru (top)& Peri in their home last week:

sally said 'It was a terrible wrench to part with them, my main sadness being their fear of the move, frightened of the new space, people, situation. I called round the next evening after delivery and they were hiding. Came out of hiding and straight onto my lap when I sat on the floor (this is why we visit a day or so later when rehoming timid cats - it gives them confidence and a push in the right direction). They were better after my visit and are now truly settled, two weeks later. Lovely home, lovely couple.'

This is how long it can take to re-home cats, these guys have gone fr a couple of months old to 8 months old, before they have found their furever home... but at least the have found it!
