Not about electrics, but worth posting to help home 6 rescued kittens

We've just prevented our neighbour from dispatching the six kittens that his cat had last weekend. This cat has had 2-3 litters per year for the past 3 years, despite our constant nagging to get her sterilised. Often the more ordinary ones have been culled and the pretty ones given away, though we've only found out about the culling after the event.

The mother has had most of the litters in our house (including this recent one) and is pretty much our cat as she is not allowed in the neighbours house when they are out, or overnight (we feed her most days). She's really just a plaything for the neighbour's smaller child, who is only there every other week....

We're not in a position to take on more cats ourselves, having five already, so are looking for homes well in advance of the time that they can leave their mother. The litter consists of 5 black (some with white lower tums) and 1 black and white. Early signs are that there are 3 males and 3 females, but I will update on that.

I believe that cats are best taken on as pairs (or more) so we are really only looking for three homes or less. Please email if you have any questions.
