Adding a kitten to 2 older rescues
Posted: Sun Jan 14, 2018 12:42 am
Hi All,
Last year I rescued two cats aged 8yrs after my beloved boy passed. The two I have now are boys, neutered of course, one is quite an anxious cat but happy with me, my partner and the other cat.
I've been asked to go and rescue a kitten (given as a gift to someone who's landlord won't allow cats!).
I have a spare room I can dedicate to the kitten and a play pen within that to keep it secure. Kitten is a female only 6 weeks old! Mother died in birth. I don't know any more than this.
My heart says just go and get the kitten out of it's poor situation so I will do that and keep it separated from my two until further down the line. I'm in two minds about keeping the kitten in my care or passing it on for adoption. I have to put my 2 older kitties first. I have no idea how they may react and I don't want to cause any worried for them.
Any advice?
