These are from some time ago - 1996 and 2001. Both are from the first day home from the shelter. Both were thought to be 12 weeks old when we got them.

First - Tippy. She was discovered at the bottom of a rubbish chute in a block of flats (apartments) and it wasn't clear if she'd ever seen a human before or how long it had been since she'd seen another cat. She was very frightened.

They were adorable babies.
They turned out to be beautiful girls.


Beth, I'm so thrilled that you saved these girls from such horrible fates. Its awesome they have a Meowmy who loves them, and a wonderful home and family!

Next here's Felicity. She was found in a cardboard box by the side of a busy road - she was with her little brother a black-haired boy who was given the name Guinness. He was a very sweet little boy and had a new home before we left the building. When she came home she had some kind of stomach upset and needed a lot of care - that's why she looks a bit sorry for herself












But as you can see - she wasn't feeling so sorry for herself that she couldn't chase a ball


Well, those were our big girls as babies. Hope you enjoyed them.

Sorry mods my brain has gone on holiday for the weekend - perhaps somebody would be kind enough to move this to the fur pictures forum where I should have put it in the first place
. Thank you to whichever kind soul does this for me.

Thanks Linda.

Chris - Tippy settled in very quickly with us. In fact she took to daughter straight away - although because she was so nervous the shelter didn't want her to go to a home with children at first. But when daughter held her Tippy crawled up under her hair and went to sleep. So she came home with us.

But....if anyone else came into the house, she would hide until they'd gone.

Loving my beautiful baby girl
Oh my, Beth, these are fabulous! Precious, precious babies!
Tippy, you sweet little girl! Your Mummy took you home and snuggled you up to feel safe and warm!
Felicity, Mummy cuddled you and made you all better!
Oh, you're both just so adorable! Look how gorgeous your itty bitty babies are now, Beth!

Thanks guys. Tippy's eyes have now settled into a chubbier face as she's got older. She would say thank you for the compliment but she's too busy lying on my feet snoring at the moment


Stephanie - the girls thank you. I look at tubby Tippy now and she may have been itty bitty once, but she certainly isn't anymore. They are both such sweet girls though.

Tippy looks a lot like my Emma--who was also found in an alley hiding underneath a pile of garbage!
Two beautiful babies!

WOW! It always amazes me to see pictures of kittens and then pictures of them as adult cats. I just have to say - considering the rough first few weeks of their lives, Tippy and Felicity have grown into what look VERY happy, VERY healthy, VERY BEAUTIFUL cats!! I'm so glad you shared these pictures, they were a blast to look at!
Bless your dear heart for taking those two precious babies in and helping them grow into the dashing cats that they are today!!! I just love them!

Your furbabies didn't have a chance at life, until you came along & gave them the care & love they needed to thrive. They are now beautiful adult cats who give you so much love in return.
I wish that all homeless kittens were as fortunate as your babies..
