We have some wonderful news to share with you! All four of the Ginger Ninjas that our friend Greta was fostering have been adopted.We also have some great news about the Darcy family.Little Lottie has been adopted! Hansome Henry has been adopted! Adorable Alice has been adopted!

We are thrilled for the lovely little fluffballs, and wish them all the love and happiness they can handle in their Forever Homes. Hooray! :)

All 'ectomied out

These are some pictures of Freddie Weasley that were taken during his stay with us. Lottie, Alice and Henry all did really well during thier surgeries. Alice had an umbilical hernia repaired, and is not fighting fit. The three of them made the trip back to the shelter today, where they will go up for adoption.

Suey's eye is looking much better. She is being very good with her eye drops, and the swelling is pretty much all gone. Thankyou very much for your get better wishes for her.

That is the update from our house :)

Excitement

Hi Kitties!
This has been an interesting day for me, Suey Sunshine.First of all, Alice, Henry and Lottie went in to the vet this afternoon , as tomorrow they are having their special surgeries. They will go from the vet to the shelter for adoption. Even I will miss them, they were a cute bunch.That's not the only thing! I got the shock of my life when I had to go into the vet with them! Some time over night I got hit in the eye, and when mum and dad got up this morning it was swollen shut. Fui and Lishy have been hiding out together on the spare bed all day. Guilty boys! I have to have antibiotic eye drops for the next five days, which is not fun for me or my poor mum who I intend to terrorise for those five days. The v-e-t put dye in my eye, and luckily there are no cuts or foreign bodies. Aren't Sundays supposed to be restful?! I hope yours was moreso than mine!
Love Suey.

Weighty Wednesday

Guess who has passed that magical mark of 1kg on the scales? That would be me! I'm actually well past it, but have stayed a little longer due to a combination of letting my brother put on a few extra grams, and the foster lady at the shelter being sick. Does this look like the butt of a kitten over a kilo to you? It does to the scales! This little miss is super close, and we think she will pass the mark in the next couple of days.

We've been eating lots and lots and lots to fuel all of our crazy antics.You burn a lot of calories when you are a kitten! Happy Hump Day, everyone :)

Love Alice.

Thursday Thnuggles

Hi everybuddy! We've been cuddling up nice and close today.

It's a bit chilly, so we're keeping each other warm. Pterodactyl is helping us snuggle.

Stay warm, kitties!

Love from the Darcys.

The Scratching Post

I like to climb! It is lots of fun, and I feel like I am King of the World!

I can see Russia from the top of my cat tree!

Love Henry.

My Sister

Hi everybody! It's Alice here, with an exciting introduction. The little white babycat here is my sister, Lottie Darcy. Isn't she pretty?Lottie and our two brothers have been staying with the shelter boss, as they were so little. Lottie is now 680 grams (Henry and I are both 850 grams). Unfortunately, one of our brothers passed away last week. Our other brother is only 270 grams, at 7 weeks old. We are really hoping that he will make it, but we're not sure if he will. He is staying with the shelter boss. Lottie is recovering from an infection in the nailbed of one of her back feet, but is otherwise full of health and excitability. We had a little bit of a hissy time over the first 24 hours, but have also had cuddles and have played together. Henry has also been giving her tongue baths. It's great to have my sister back :)
Love Alice.

P.S. Lishy is going down in Kitty Fight Club .You should see the super cute big feet on Snafu!

Fatberd....

Fatberd, fatberd,Whatcha gonna do?Whacha gonna do when we come for you?! Guess what! We have exciting news! When Alice was dropped off at the shelter, she had a sibling with her. Her sibling was really really tiny though, about half the size of Alice. The little one wasn't expected to make it, and went to stay with the shelter boss instead of coming with us to our foster home. Well, the little baby now big, strong and has a clean bill of health, and is now just in need of socialisation from some similar sized kittens. Tomorrow, we will be getting Alice's sibling back!!! Hooray!!!

Fun on Friday

Hi kitties! It's Alice Darcy here. I wanted to tell you it was me because I have grown so much I might not be recognisable! In the two weeks since we have been in our foster home, Henry and I have put on nearly 250 grams each. When you think that we were only 400 grams each on the day we arrived, I think it's quite an impressive gain.But onto the fun stuff! Henry and I have been having a lot of fun with the track toy.We have learned how to reach in and flick the ball now, and like to chase it like crazy.We get so excited when we are playing, and will chase the ball around and around the track. We have been playing really nicely together, and don't even whap each other in our excitement. These are two short videos of us playing with our track toy. You can see Henry run really really fast!


In this video, you can see Lishy come and try to play with us. He is trying to teach us to wrassle. He is a good teacher, because he is gentle with us.

We hope that you get to do something this weekend that is a lot of fun! :)
Love Alice.

Toasty Tuesday

The weather has been a bit chilly in our neck of the woods.So we are working very hard at snuggling with our triceratops and our heaty pad.We think we're turning it into quite an art. Would you like to join us? :)
Love Henry and Alice.

Friends on Friday

Hi everyone! It's Henry Darcy here. Today was a happy day, because we were allowed out and about to meet our foster siblings! Lishy and Fui thought we were wonderful, but I don't really blame them. Lishy went straight into what my foster mum called 'Sheriff Mode', and was following us about and trilling at us. Fui was cool calm and collected, and kept sending us love eyes.

Suey ignored us, and slept on the top of the couch.

Here you can see two short videos of us playing.

My wonky tail is quite visible, and in some frames you can actually see the break. My foster mum spoke to the foster co-ordinator at the shelter, and she said it was broken when I first came in as a teeny tiny kitten. Both Alice and I were bottlefed by a different foster mum before we came to Fui, Suey and Lishy's house, and that is why our quarantine period was shorter than usual when we got here.

After all that playing, we crashed on our bed and had a really big sleep!

I hope you have a happy weekend:)
Love Henry.

Henry is Silly

He wibblesAnd he wobblesAnd he falls right down And then blows a raspberry!

Our New Babies

Meet the Darcy kittens.

Mr. Henry Darcy, a little grey and white bi-colour.

Miss. Alice Darcy, a torbie and white. They are from seperate litters, but were left at the Cat Protection Society at the same time and at the same age. They were bottle fed by another carer, and are now well on their way to weaning. Alice is a very friendly young lady, full of loving and head rubs. Henry is a bit more aloof, but is slowly warming up. They are both very cute!
