Found our first cat..very excited

I have been loitering in the forum for the best part of 8 months looking at the ins and outs of cat care hoping that one day we could have one.

Well today we went to Cats protection to talk about their perspective on our area and suitability and....well, we fell in love!

The most beautiful little lady was in there a 1.5 year old black short hair called Mitzy. She had been handed in as a stray and on inspection was pregnant and showing signs of already having one litter. Walking past her cage she called to us and began to bat at us through the cage mouthing on our hands, once we "popped" in her cage she was licking my hands to smitherines and was climbing all over my OH's lap. Well we new it was fate and reserved her then and there.

We will be getting a home visit in a week or so and then afterwards we will be able to collect her. I can't believe how lucky I am, I feel sick with excitement.

I've literally spent a fortune on starting up stuff (beds, toys, food, litter trays), I really am so glad to be having this little joy coming into our lives!

Re: Found our first cat..very excited

Congratulations and welcome. I had a black cat as my first ever cat and he was joined 2 years later by a tabby and now we have our gorgeous tabby/white who is called Scamp. Bet you can't wait for the day of arrival
