After my Buns died in February I was too grief stricken to even think about getting another cat then suddenly I was asked to take on a very timid 11 year old tabby. All well and good and we are getting on great. Then today my son informs me his neighbours cat has just had 4 jet black jellybeans who need homes ASAP (12 weeks time after they have been weaned). So he has reserved one for me. What!!!! Well how could I say no.
Will send photos ASAP my son is going to photograph them tomorrow. Meanwhile heres one of tabby. Weird thing is I dreamt my old cat came to see me and said it was time to stop being sad because she loved me xxx

Is timid tabby going to enjoy a kitten though?

Shehasadiamondinthesky · 03/10/2021 16:59

Yes she was raised with loads of cats and got on very well with them. I've had the feeling lately that she's like a friend as she spends a lot of time with the neighbourhood cats.

Sounds like a plan then.

As long as the old lady of the house is happy... then bring on the kittens!

Aw, cute ❤

If she's 11 I'd get two kittens (double the cuteness) so they can still be company for her but can chase/play/mither each other

yy two kittens! TBH two kittens is less faff than one.

Yes. Get two kittens.

Haha. My 11 is driving me nuts with her 3 in the morning zoomies and hunts like a much younger cat. I had a great big mouse in my bed one morning, that woke me up for sure. She,s bonkers.

My son just sent me this picture of my little jellybean with her mum. So cute.
