Travelling kitties

Haven't felt much like blogging lately, no reason really. Maybe as there is not alot going on these days? Anyway hi again. I am still pregnant as far as I know, will be 15 weeks on Saturday. Still haven't decided about next ultrasound, will post about it later.

Naranja has been gone for four days. Her babies were here outside in the house and since she's been gone we have been feeding them. I am sure something happened to Naranja as she would not abandon her babies at this young age of almost 6 weeks. She was always with them, even if she wandered about she would always come right back.

A British friend of ours came to visit yesterday. She lives in Luxor.  She mentioned to me that her friend, another British expat who lives in Luxor, was looking for two kittens. I asked her to call and see if she was willing to take our three babies. She was. She has a huge property there and they will have a great home.

So off they were last night for a 10 hour train ride to South Egypt in their carrier. My friend is such an animal lover, more of dogs, but took such good care of them on the journey. I sent her with milk, some shredded cheese, and she fed them some chicken, she shredded finely,  that she was served for dinner (she's a vegan).

She texted me along the way and when she arrived in Luxor to let me know they were at their new home.

I feel so happy that they have a good, loving new home, but cried last night as I miss them, they were our connection to Fajita (Naranja). We may never know what happened to her, but we miss her so.

  12. I'm so sorry to hear of Naranja's disappearance. I remember well that feeling of utter helplessness when my kitty vanished--it's the not-knowing what happened that's frustrating. I hope she finds her way to you again.
    The kittens are adorable.
    xx
