Now it`s official - I am complete and utterly addicted.
This afternoon a young woman showed up at my home and told me,
someone had told her, that I had some kittens to give away. My first reaction - deep mistrust.g At first impulse I wanted to tell her that that`s not true. But then I remebered that some of the villagers know that I recently found 4 kittens in front of my door. AND I remembered that I wanted to give the little ones away after I made them trust human hands.sigh That their status is "temporarily at home with us". So I checked the young lady thoroughly and while doing that detected that I WANTED to find something which is not ok with me.another sigh Circumstances wanted that everything with her and her keeping cats and her knowing about cats behaviour seemed to be ok. AND I found her nice too. So I told her the kittens are still not hand-friendly and took her into my living-room just to show her a glimpse of vanishing kittens. There we were able to have a look at all four of them as they have grown rather curious and, who knows, I could have something to eat with me.g Yes, they are spoiled already. Then I told the young lady I would only give two of them together away, and next sentence I said was " I would prefer to give none of them away." sigh She laughed and stated she could understand that. In the end I explained that I already have grown too close to them and that I would keep all of them. She was so damned nice and understanding. And I now know that I am crazy. I suggested to her that if she would wait 4 month there would be probably kittens at my neighbours house as the spring run is already going on ( it is so warm here that outside the cats are all going crazy). And she said that this would be ok with her. I can't believe it. There are still three unspayed girls outside and I am dreading spring for that. Well, at least there is one decent place found. And in four weeks I hope to get those three spayed. If I can aquire the funds for that. Anyway - now the kittens status is clear - they are MINE. And I think everybody here sort of smells that changed status. Oh well, let there be 12. Bettina |

I don't think any of us doubted that they were yours. Good luck with having the females spayed! -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. |

Even though we knew they were yours, it was fun watching you decide that!!!

Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs We-ell, I decided to make them hand-friendly and then to think about the possibility of finding places. But you are right - my heart at once told me to keep `em. But there is a responsible, sensible side inside me which always asks the sensible questions. I know - forget about that. After weeks and weeks of "thinking it over" I ended up with "trust, that the universe always will find ways to feed and TED them.". I got the lesson that if one always thinks into the future that there might be difficulties, there will for sure be difficulties. So no I just hope for the best. |
