Hello Everyone,
Am Royale from Nigeria and my kittens are Sonar (Staring at the camera) and Gifa (Always sitting on any open laptop) they are both females.

They turned out to make beautiful indoor cats who wont even tolerate been let out for over 10 minutes. The photo was from a memorable day a month ago, they are Three months old now and are very lovable, happy and sociable kittens. I rescued them along with their original owners from a car crash, the little girl who owned them gave two of them to me after thier mother didn't survive the crash, they were all four siblings. I havent being really able to tell thier breeds especially since people in Nigeria dont care soo much about Felines but am pretty sure they are native to the country. Sonar and Gifa turned out to be the best thing that happened to me, having them really comforted me as i was also travelling to burry my late father who just passed on when i rescued them on the high way.
Raising them has been very hard and tricky as i cant access any Vet who has cats on thier experience and care list or any petshop that stock for cats. My family welcomed them warmly despite the havy descrimination cats get from this part of the world (All cats are considered evil and demonic, if you own one they accuse you of sorcery and black magic) i even got more motivated to raise and keep them against all the descrimination i also have be recieving for thier sake (i cant even go to church am treated like the devil in human flesh, i also dont get much visitors too) but i dont care any ways, they all just have an old and poor mentality towards nature. My kittens are loveable and also helped me make new friends who have a better enlightened mentality and reasoning. My anger issues, tolerance, petience and general lifestyle has also improved greatly since i took them in. I have to improvise painfully in order for thier feeding, litter, play toys and medical care with great support and understanding from Online vets and experts oversees and of course the information from this website. They are growing rapidly and I'll share there photos on the photo sharing section soon.

Am glad to be a part of this society, and i wanna thank the people that own this website and all her users for making this place come alive. I Love You All and Am Not Kitten about that. :)

Welcome to The Cat Site. :wave2: Sonar and Gifa are beautiful. :catlove:

It's saddening to read how some people feel about cats in your country, and how hard it is to find cat experienced veterinarians. I hope you'll be able to find a vet near you to get cat supplies, and eventually have them spayed.

Is this vet anywhere near you? They have a clinic cat, and also do mail orders.

Glad you are here! Beautiful little kitties. And I am glad they helped with your father's passing. Grief is always best shared with loved ones,and your little ones will be the best for this job.

Welcome to you and your beautiful kittens! We are so happy that you found us. We're ready to answer any questions you have about caring for your babies, or to help you find the answers if we don't have them! As for vet care, I suggest contacting the nearest international airport and speaking with the customs people there. They always have up-to-date information on vets and such due to people coming into a country with animals.

Wow! Didn't see that one in my searches!n thanks alot.
Well i called in and it turned out they are almost 300 miles from me but i made an appointment for Sonny and Giffy this weekend. I really appreciate your tip.
Their store has little for cats (just some wet food) but they did direct me to some petstores that do stock. The prices for feline supplies are so high here that I'll be saving 50% if i shopped abroad and had it delivered to the country. Am very happy for your tip it went a really long way to help me.
The Vet guys sent me carriages for our transport. While i was on the phone talking and when i say the word Vet, it seems like my kitties know what am talking about, they give me that "Please dont take me there look". They like laying in the carriage and playing in it even when i lock them in for some time but when i lift it and head for the front door.......hell is losed.
Am soo tensed i hope i can pull this whole first vet visit off, am happy i found a Vet clinic that is actually a feline specialists. :)

Thanks a lot. I called them many times and all i have learnt soo far is that female customs officers are nicer than the male ones :) , they sent me a catalog it will be delivered tomorrow and they gave me the phone number of the Vet @Rubysmana tipped me. Thanks for the support am just gonna go to work tomorrow, sit in the office and watch videos of peoples cat on youtube......maybe it may ease of the vet visit anxiety for me :)

I'm so happy you were able to make an appointment with that vet. Hope everything goes well on Saturday. Be sure to come back and let us know how Sonny and Giffy enjoyed their vet visit. :catlove:
