: Maisie (2 years old) is Sampson's (18 months) mum, he was born when she
: was just six months old and he is now double her size. They were found
: abandoned in an old box at a factory and when they were found (October 05)
: Sampson was still suckling mum!! Plus she was pregnant with another
litter
: which the shelter, by law, had to abort. They had cat flu and so had not
: been put on display and by the time they were over the flu, again by law,
: the shelter was unable to put them on display because they'd had them
longer
: than the 28 days they are allowed to keep all abandoned animals. So
they'd
: had them out the back. DH found their pictures on the shelter's website
and
: went in and asked to see them.
:
: The poor volunteers were in floods of tears when we adopted them and gave
: the cats lots of parting gifts, they were that happy to see them homed.
:
: So at the moment Maisie is downstairs and Sampson is upstairs sleeping.
: They should settle in quite well I think.
:
: So a bit of advice, if you need a QI, visit a shelter.
