Re: RSPCA home check - what to expect?


Rest assured there will be photos galore when they arrive, OH is a part time professional photgrapher so their every move will be photographed!
I am hoping to go and see them at the boarding kennels again before collecting them. Since they are not ready to leave their Mum until next month I think it would be nice to take some toys and a blanket over for them so that they will have some familiar stuff to come home with.

I can't wait to bring them home

I think they said 9 weeks, I'd rather have them at 12 weeks but will have to take RSPCAs word for it that 9 is OK. It is after all 15 years since I've had kittens!

Re: RSPCA home check - what to expect?


I think it is daft not letting working people have kittens. I have always worked and have had a few kitten in my life and they have been fine. Alfie was 10 weeks when he joined Rosie cat 10 and Holly dog 11. I was off work for 1 weeks to settle them in and everything has been brilliant. Cats are not like dogs they have toilet facilities and if you are getting two kittens then they have company. Good homes shouldn't be rejected in my opinion because people have to work. The same goes for dogs.

Re: RSPCA home check - what to expect?


I agree completely, Rosie! I worked all my life, always had cats, and they were healthy, happy and most lived to advanced old ages!! Ridiculous requirement, IMO!
