We have an appointment tomorrow to meet three recently abandoned kittens. They were found on Friday in an empty house by a removal firm who'd gone in to clear out (a repossession, I assume). Bastards, there isn't a hell hot enough.
We lost our previous furbabies in 2017 and February this year (aged 17 and 20) and am really anxious about new cats. I genuinely didn't sleep last night worrying about not being able to love them as much as we did the oldies, and of course, the thought of leaving one on her own, as we have only been looking for two cats who can live together. Kittens never really came up - we were thinking rehoming slightly older.
Should we take all three? They're a boy and two girls, so we're thinking "one of each" as that's what we've had before. They'll find a kitten a home, won't they?
I'm twisted into a knot about this. I'm so sad not to have our boy (yeah, we had him over 20 years and I still want more - aren't I greedy?) and don't feel ready, but I don't think I'll be ready till we have new heart-stealers in the house. Does that make sense?
