Our two 5 month olds escaped today. It was pouring with rain and I left the front door open as they like to sit there but wouldn't go out in the rain. Got distracted and then noticed the rain had eased off and surprise surprise no kittens in sight
Little buggers had made a break for it! Our house is right next a a brook and a small wooded area that is kitty heaven and they wanted to sample what they've been eyeing up for months and seeing our older cat Oscar head into. I was out there shaking a bag of kitty biscuits for 15 minutes, they weren't falling for that! Looking into the brambles I spotted one, then the other, they were only 15m from the front door. They then they start playing silly buggers and darting in and out of the brambles but not close enough to grab them. Had to bring out the big guns in a can of tuna. Both knew what was happening but that sweet sweet tuna was irresistible and I got them both. They are being neutered and chipped on Tuesday and then as long as their little furry sack heals up ok they'll get their cat flap privileges that weekend. No doubt the kill fest will shortly follow
This is them 6 weeks ago gazing at the fun space to come, so they've got bigger since.
They've come a long way from these little balls of fluff.
