Cosmo and Gizmo

Tweet

The two were found on a mound of sand overlooking a car park at a local sports grounds, presumably dumped and about 4 weeks old. Eyes barely open and scrawny, and as I placed a handful of cat nibbles in front of them, they ate as if there was no tomorrow. Sad, just so sad that humans are so horribly cruel to furry creatures that have no voice of their own. So we brought them home and tried to find the ‘forever homes’ It seems it was not the SEASON for homing a kitten in our area and after two weeks of keeping them separate from my Pepè, but feeding and loving them , we decided to keep them as well. We now have a clowder of cats! The names were not clearly thought through because we thought the new owners would rename them. So their vet cards read: Cosmo (two black ears and white face) and Gizmo who has (phantom of the opera black face) both little gals. We have nicked named they accordingly - Cosmo is now called Dopey Doll because she has dopey eyes and Gizmo is Wild thing. Since then I have found five other kittens dumped and left to fend for themselves but have successfully found them homes. Their new forever homes keep me posted on their settling. All are well. Our local vet says it’s a continuous struggle with the cats multiplying and the lack of responsibility with cat owners not having their pets sterilized. Do you have these problems in your areas as well and how have you overcome the problems?
