So sometimes things move quickly. A co-worker told me about a kitty rescue close to where I live and showed me a picture of a kitty- a cute little tabby which reminded me of the South East Asian kitties who remind me of Abys.
So I called and while that cat girl had already been adopted the lady said she just got another one in who looked just like her- and that she was rescued in Mallorca- which is a Spanish island in the Mediterranean- and that she was flewn in just yesterday with her mom who was rescued pregnant and her two siblings.
Mom is all white, Kiri is all tabby and her brother and sister are all black.
She looked healthy and - regarding what she had been through- rather happy.
So we just took her with us and went right to our vet. Trude checked her out and also found her very healthy looking. But in 2 days we'll do a little blood test because in the Southern countries kitties can be infected with giardia or other bacteria. She didn't want to take the blood today as she would prefer that Kiri relaxes a bit.
So Kiri now moved in the guest room as we will not get her together with Orion before we know she has a clean bill of health. She ate and she played like crazy- all good signs.
She only made one sound during all the time we drove her to the vet and home- and that was a very pure soprano sound- that's how she got her name after the NZ soprano Kiri Te Kanawa.
Isn't that all exciting? At the moment if you come into her room she dives under the bed so I won't bother her with pictures- but soon there will be some.
