My girl is having her kittens! First one is here squeaking and healthy!

Second is imminent.

I think she’ll have 4 🤞🏽🤞🏽

Thank you all ❤️

@Growlybear83 yes he’s very close (relatively speaking - 15 min drive away).

Toastie is absolutely beautiful and I’ve always loved black cats. She’s very bold and playful so we’ll be happy with our cat family of three I’ve no doubt.

I must admit that black cats are my favourites.

With a heavy heart we said goodbye to Scrump today. His new owner is absolutely besotted and he’s already sleeping on her lap in his new home.

DH is putting on a brave face but I know he misses him.

Toastada is settled happily upstairs with DS and tomorrow we are going to a pet shop to buy some new toys for Toastie (as now call her).

Mum will be heading to the vet on Wednesday for her op and Toastie as soon as the vet says she is ready.

A few recent pics for the admirers among you ❤️

Such beautiful kittens. I hope they are all happy in their new homes and Tostada, mum and uncle (and your family!) don’t miss them too much. If you hear how they are getting on, do let us know 😊

My family had five adult cats at once many years ago, they were all lovely but three is enough Op, five was over the top.

Agreed. Even three is a little excessive but on the manageable side

Depending on age, health and character, three is probably enough. 😉
This thread, after the miseries left, has been so uplifting. Please do pop back when you can and keep us updated 🤗

Aww, Toastie is gorgeous!
Best wishes for the future..sure you will all be feline fine!

Davros · 15/02/2026 22:39

Best of luck to Scrump, I will miss him so I can only guess how you must all feel 🐾

StartupRepair · 16/02/2026 09:02

Scrump's little face is so sweet and Toastie is just gorgeous. Your thread has given me some comfort in a challenging time and I wish all the kittens and your family the very best.

Toastie update. She’s helping DH take over the world (or something). She’s absolutely lovely and very tubby. She’s a massive greedus.

Toastie looks well at home

Growlybear83 · 01/03/2026 00:20

How lovely to see an update on Toastie! Have you heard how the others are getting on?

Daleksatemyshed · 01/03/2026 06:10

All cats have a thing for world domination, good of your DH to indulge her 😂

TiggyTomCat · 01/03/2026 10:13

Despite my name I'm not a massive cat fan 😆but I have enjoyed reading all this...so perhaps I am a closet one after all! It's been a lovely heartwarming post to follow. Thank you for sharing.

@Growlybear83

All four are VERY well settled and extremely spoiled. I get regular texts of thanks. Toastie has brought us joy so I can imagine it’s the same for the others.

Toastie has decided ‘unc’ is her new playmate and spends lots of time chasing him or snuggled up with him. She takes no prisoners 🤣

A little pic of Toastie and mummy. Have been keeping a close eye based on a few people mentioning that mum might try to drive her off but they seem to be getting
on well.

Mum is recovering very nicely from her op and vet said she was in very good condition.

Toastie booked in for end of March!

I received a lovely pic from Scrump’s new owner today so here is a pic of him plus one I took of our beautiful Toastie.

Gorgeous photos indeed.

Awww it must be great to see how well they’re doing

I am so happy to get updates - I really miss them all but a three-cat household is plenty. Plus Toastie is a real force of nature and I think if we’d met more Mum and Unc would have felt really overwhelmed. Current dynamic is working very nicely for all of us ❤️
