Re: kittens


Sorry, should have said - her name is Amber and she is a darling.

She was picked up by the CPL as a stray, with kits (who had all been rehomed by the time I got her).

It could be like reading a medical dictionary when you convince yourself that you've got every disease you read about - but seriously, I am quite startled by how closely the points fit (right down to the concave nose, which has always made me smile) - to the extent that I'm almost tempted to e-mail the club - although if she is being missed by someone, I would miss her so much if they want her back

If I had lost a cat and then found it had was OK and had a good home I think i would be inclined to leave it. If someone has lost her they will have done their grieving but it would be wonderful for them to know.

Re: kittens


There is a Siberian breeder in my home town, I've just e-mailed her with a couple of photos to say "I'm probably being paranoid, but just in case..."

I agree, that heart-wrenching though it would be, I would be inclined to leave a moggy with the new owners that had gone missing so long ago but found a happy home. However, if you had paid a couple of hundred quid for a pedigree kitten? ...

I couldn't not e-mail the breeder though - as you say, the worst thing when a cat goes missing is not knowing.

EDIT: thinking about it sensibly, most breeders microchip kittens don't they? And if a pedigree goes missing, most people would let just about everyone know - certainly the CPL would have been informed I would have thought. So Amber is probably just a moggy who coincidentally shares Siberian features - which suits me just fine, she's a poppet whatever she is
