Crisis Kittens

Since this story began in mid January 2008, two of the little ones were adopted and Rhonda and Claire are still available for adoption. See here and here.

Crisis kittens - january 2008


The story of these kittens, much like the Christmas Day kittens before them, help show the the awful plight some animals in this country find themselves in and the tough work and sadness that comes with trying to make a difference. These little 'crisis kittens' were found mid-January 2008 completely alone and with no sign of their mother. They were brought to the care and attention of Cats In Need where they had to be bottle-fed every two hours to ensure they got the nutrients they needed to survive.

As you can see from the pictures they were in a bad state when they were found and without knowing how long they were without their mother and sustenance, we can only hope they fight their way through and we'll try as hard as we can to help them.

After much struggle and hard work these kittens are doing so much better it's hard to recognise them from their pictures above.

They're still not quite out of the woods and still need some TLC before they're adopted out so any donations toward their ongoing well-being would be greatly appreciated.

Here are some pictures to show how these little boys and girls look now.

These lovely cats are doing so well and the two boys have been adopted and are now doted on by their new parents. We are told they are doing very well and have adjusted very well to life in their new house. Claire and Rhonda are still at the trust, both are quite petite and will probably always be so due to their rough beginnings but both are very active little ones.

Claire is the more social of the two girls and loves to cuddle, however Rhonda is quite timid and sometimes likes to be by herself, a little loner. It is due to this that the trust want to home the two together as Claire can bring the best out in Rhonda. We are pleased that they have done so well and we now just hope that the two girls will also find their forever home with the right family.
