+HazelS Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 Today whilst out caching, I heard a very loud Miow from the hedge next to the footpath... My dad and a couple of us looked hard, and we saw a tiny kitten (no onder than about three months old) very wide eyed and desperate for cuddles. Mum took the kitten into the car and sat with him, whilst we went off and found the cache, and on our return, the kitten was fast asleep on mum's lap. Mum and Dad took the kitten to the nearest farm and asked if it was anyone's they knew, and they said that the footpath has had several litters of kittens dumped there in the past, and they reckoned this was probably the latsest offering. I needed no asking... the kitten came home and was soooo hungry... poor little love! He's now called Cacher, and is the best thing I ever took from a cache site! Quote
+PopUpPirate Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 Hazel I'm ashamed of you! Took Kitten Left Nowt! That's not a swap! You'll just have to cram it into the next cache you find! Kittens cool, needed saving, well done Hazel and Sandiways! Quote
The Washers UK Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 OMG I found a kitten while en route to Hauxwell house cache It bit me twice and I was so disapointed I wasnt't taking it home !! Ron was thrilled we weren't taking it home and Billie couldn't decide either way, I still wonder if it's found a nice new home ? Quote
+LollyBob Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 Hazel I'm ashamed of you! Took Kitten Left Nowt! That's not a swap! You'll just have to cram it into the next cache you find! Kittens cool, needed saving, well done Hazel and Sandiways! Oh you are so lucky Mark, she wanted to trade a pup for it but we talked her out of it! The poor little kitten must have been dumped there and when it saw us just wanted a friend to give it a cuddle. Hope your new "mum" gives you a forever home. Dread to think of what else Hazel will take home with her! Quote
+Tizzie Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 Hazel I'm ashamed of you! Took Kitten Left Nowt! That's not a swap! You'll just have to cram it into the next cache you find! Kittens cool, needed saving, well done Hazel and Sandiways! Most of the day's caches were small, so it wouldn't fit. Though come to think of it, there was one it would have fitted in. Quote
+laughingcat Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 How nice! And I love the name. Have found a kitten myself and also found him a home, and once found puppies! Would prefer people be kind enough to not dump the babies but am so glad there's those kind enough to help the dumped babies out. Bless you! Quote

+HazelS Posted October 29, 2006 Author Posted October 29, 2006 Remember a cat is for life, not just for caching! Yes, I am fully aware of my responsibilities... I have always had cats, including several resuced cats. I have another cat too - called Buttons who is incredibly spoilt... this new kitten will be equally as daft given a few weeks! Quote
+FollowMeChaps Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 I needed no asking... the kitten came home and was soooo hungry... poor little love! He's now called Cacher, and is the best thing I ever took from a cache site! Come on now HazelS - let's have a picture posted here. Quote

+Torry Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 (edited) Hey Hazel! Take me, too! And me. I'm hungry! You're hungry? I'm hungrier! Got any tuna? No. Me! Take me with you! Ewwww. Don't take her she smells like old butt. WHEEEEEE! I pooped in your cache bag. Do you have a big yard? Are we home yet? I can lick my butt. Can you? Gotta beer? Wanna see my butt? Can we take my cousin, too? He don't eat much and hardly ever poops in the cubbard. Fluffy farted. Did not. Did too. No, it was Frisky. Yup, That's one of mine. Where're we goin'?

+Pieman Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 What a nice story. Our grand old female cat Beryl passed away today on her 18th birthday. For anyone who has done the Blink caches, she features briefly as the begging cat. I hope that Cacher lives as long. I am certainly sure that she will have a lively life living with Hazel! Quote
+Skate and Jane Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 Our newest cats are two brothers that we have had since July and one of them has cost us £500 already! Hope you have better luck with cacher. Quote
+The_Westies Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 Shame we couldn't come with you. Would have loved to have met cacher. The closest we found in caches today was Mr Blobby and John nearly beheaded him. Quote
+HazelS Posted October 29, 2006 Author Posted October 29, 2006 Our newest cats are two brothers that we have had since July and one of them has cost us £500 already! Hope you have better luck with cacher. Eeek.... not good!! I'm sure the little lad will cost me more than that in kitten food in his 1st week with me... Oh - and I'm going to start including him in my blog... so all news about him will be there! Quote
+Simply Paul Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 Sorry to hear about Beryl Pieman. Mind, what's 18 in cat years? 100+? And I'm sure her quality of life was way up there with quantity. Quote
+Pieman Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 Sorry to hear about Beryl Pieman. Mind, what's 18 in cat years? 100+? And I'm sure her quality of life was way up there with quantity. Yes, thanks SP, she made me want to come back as a cat with a good home next time. Quote
+PopUpPirate Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Oh - and I'm going to start including him in my blog... so all news about him will be there! Yay! He is an ace beast it must be said! Quote
+HazelS Posted October 30, 2006 Author Posted October 30, 2006 oh noooo that little filmstar Beryl.... gone to the big cat blanket in the sky..... I loved Beryl - she was gorgeous! sorry to hear about that Paul, 18 really was a grand old age for a puss! Quote
+Son Of Windswept Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Hazel, You are probably not the first to find some kittens whilst out geocaching, nor do I suspect you will be the last. These two were found by my parents (Windswept) last April whilst doing the Harrogate Bug Hotel, GCW605. See: Cache LOG. Kittens today... Regards Paul Quote
+J33P KN Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 What are you going to call this small caching kitten ...??? well done on saving the wee cacher. Aye, Ken. Quote

+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 Not quite a kitten, but we were involved in a rescue today whilst caching too! We were doing this cache, when hedgehog stopped play. We ended up abandoning our cache hunt, and this evening this little 4 oz critter is alive and well. She's too small to hibernate so will be hand reared over the next few months. Quote
