Rescue:
A woman was concerned about wee kittens that had been born in her backyard and were now
about eight weeks old. Originally the mother cat had shown up in the spring and was always
second in line to the food dish after another female cat. The top cat eventually left and the
mother cat was able to feast on the daily feedings freely. The woman had first noticed this cat
while she was pregnant and now obviously slimmer, had given birth in a protected area. At the
back of the property there were tree limbs piled up and compost and brush were covering it. It
was like a cave and that is where they first saw the kittens playing. Eventually the kittens (now
named Jack Frost and Jingles) were enticed closer to the house and then invited into the
shop. There they were able to provide a warm and dry environment for them, and of course
socialize them. The mom being extremely feral will soon be rescued and spayed. She has
everything she needs on this property and will be released but there will not be any more
unwanted kittens.
Personality:
These two girls are very sweet and playful. Jingles and Joy love to spend time playing and
wrestling, entertaining themselves for hours by chasing each other around. They curl up together
for an afternoon nap. At first Joy was more cautious letting Jingles explore new places
and approaching new people, but once she is comfortable she is very outgoing, usually tiring
out her sister. Jingles likes being the brave one and teaching her sister how to try new things
and go new places. They enjoy being pet and purr as soon as you approach them, and they
love to crawl into bed with their foster mom to sleep. Joy’s favourite thing to play with is her
scratching post with a hanging ball, while Jingles prefers her little toy mice. These girls are so
fun and cute. They are ready to be adopted into their forever home together. One that will
welcome them into the family and keep them safely indoors
