Ooops! I have another cat!

About a year ago, my daughter found a kitten - approx 4 months old - wandering in the road. She brought the cat home and, after a couple of weeks of looking out for "Missing cat" posters and checking the local vets for reports of missing cats (plus getting her scanned for a microchip), the mog adopted me.

And it's happened again.

Walking down the street near me, there was a black male kitten - approx 10 weeks old - sniffing about under a parked car. Well, he was WAY too small to be out by himself, so I grabbed him and took him home. Moggsy hissed and spat at him, but I couldn't let him wander the streets at his age, so I just separated them and gave Moggsy lots of love, attention and food.

Yes I KNOW he's prolly someone's pet, but if his owners CARED about him, they would have been more careful about letting him out (or not). And I will look out for any "lost" posters, and hand him back if there's a loving owner who's missing him. Until then, he's lodging here.
