Sounds like my friend wants to take Squeaky and one of the girls. Just not sure which one

Madoc and Morgan are the feistiest of the kittens, although Gwenllian isn't far behind. Squeaky is a cuddle bug but can pretty much hold his own. So, now it's just a question of which girl will go and which will stay. No matter who, I'll be in tears. I'm going to get in a whole lot of snuggling, before the weekend.

I'm pretty sure Madoc is staying with me. And Morgan is currently 'campaigning' to stay, too Siwsan Sep 2021 #6

Which just happened to be the very day I found the kittens. The look on her face when she's cuddling him - beyond smitten. And it will be better if he has a sibling with him.

Besides, poor Sophie will probably be more comfortable with fewer kittens in the house. She's off to the vet, tomorrow, to make sure her stress grooming and weight loss are caused by kitten stress, and not something else.

She's spent the greater part of the afternoon on my lap.

Look at the love and time you have invested. I raised a dove hatchling over the summer and I have tears daily when I see him out in the wild flying free. I hope you will be able to see Squeaky +1 since they'll be with a friend.

Thank you for sharing this journey with all of us.

I'm so glad that two of them are going to someone who will love them as much as I do. I am going to make her promise to send me photos, as they grow.

these adorable beings the very best start possible.

You will, of course, share those pics, yes??

I know that your heart will be hurting, but they will always be a part of you.

And, of course, the same goes with the two staying with me. I have a feeling it's going to be Morgan and, of course, Madoc.

My initial reaction to reading that headline ...

Is this your friend?

did what I did: the minute I saw him I was head over heels. Glad to hear one of the girls is going with him. I can’t think of him without a sidekick. I hope we will see photos of Squeaky as he grows up.
