Found a stray kitten

Dd found a stray kitten,she doesn't yet know I'm going to pick hers up today at 5pm.

She found the kitten in a box at the bus stop and has watched it for a couple of hours before deciding to take it to the vets. She has got her wormed and flead and bought litter,trays,food and toys. Very proud of dd for being so responsible but do we keep the kitten?would I be unfair not to let her keep this kitten as I've already arranged a surprise kitty for her X

Kittens get on really well with each other, so would it harm for her to have both and they can be playmates?

Tbh if possible, I'd keep both...it's nice for them to have company Smile

This is lovely, your DD is so responsible and clearly very deserving of her surprise kitten! I agree that you should keep both - we have two cats and it's lovely Smile

NB It would be sensible to work out how much it will cost to get both kittens microchipped, vaccinated and insured, to make sure you can afford two. But if you can, go for it!

She's probably bonded with the one she found also. If you were going to get one anyway I couldn't send it away.

I love the dog all chilled out in the background. God knows how our dog would react if we brought a kitten in.

Look on the bright side. With your current menagerie and DD being so responsible and all, I'd guess that a career in veterinary medicine beckons.

You just have to limp along at the moment but then your bills should - with any luck - start to reduce greatly. Smile

She is very tired,she's already decided dds bed is much better than her ownGrin when she wakes up she'll have another kitty friend . Have booked both kitties in at the vets for chips,vaccines and they'll eventually get spayed too. Very proud of Dd,not all 14 yer olds are bad Wink didn't think she could get the kitten flead,wormed and checked over without an adult. They told her to take her home and call rspca or ask me if we could keep her Hmm

Oh yes neutering, I thought I'd forgotten something expensive in my list of costs to budget for!

I bet DD would make a great vet Smile
