Enter mother and 12 week old kitten to the Hovis household. From the lovely folk at Celia Hammond cat rescue centre in Lewisham. They have spent two nights in our house now, just keeping them in our kitchen living space area for now where they have a nice view of our garden and plenty of string to play with.
They seem to be settling nicely, although the little one doesn't seem to be eating much yet. Loves to play and is quite handy at catching flies. Mother seems to just mope about not doing very much, but does like attention and a cuddle. Am hoping she will liven up eventually, I'm guessing being separated from the rest of her litter and new surroundings is perhaps rather stressful. She's rather skinny so need to fatten her up a bit.
My plan is to give them access to the rest of the house tonight, although I worry about forgetting windows open and them bolting. Am trying to get in the habit of keeping all the doors and windows closed but its hard in this heat.
Anyways, not really sure why I'm writing all this, just sharing. Must be honest but I don't feel we have developed any kind of bond with them yet, which I think is also why we can't think of any names for them. Fingers crossed this changes soon.
