Milo Our new Cat

A little bit more than 2 weeks ago we had to say goodbye to our Kitty who was part of our family for 2 years.

In the meantime, my dad was looking at cats to buy But he did not tell me. But 2 weeks ago some people stop at our gate and entered, carrying a pet container. In this container was a small kitten.

I suddenly heard the dogs barking and whining and saw this commotion by the gate. They tried to take the kitten out of the container but oh my goodness it was so "wild" it scratches and bites and almost got away. At last, my dad and the lady got the kitten back into the container.

This little kitten was hissing and growling. I said to my dad "this is not a tame cat." because there are lots of feral cats here and I am sure they pick up this kitten there. So when they came to collect their container, my dad asked them and they confirmed that they saw this batch of little kittens on the beach and brought them home.

So this kitten is living in our bathroom for the past two weeks where we try to tame her. She got a little box there, her sandbox and some toys. When she just smell the dogs she starts to growl and hiss. She is now allowing us to pet her and she will purr the whole time. She doesn't like it much when we pick her up.

Our two dogs stay inside, so for us to keep her, she will have to get used to the dogs.

I named her Milo, so I just hope we will be successful to integrate Milo into our household. There are neibouring dogs and cats she will have to cope with. We put the dogs outside and take her out for small periods of time into our room but she tends to climb off the bed and seek a corner where she can hide.

I will bring more updates about Milo and the dogs next time
