Lottie The Allotment Kitten

Lottie, the allotment kitten

Lottie was the only survivor from a litter of kittens born last year on our allotments. We never found out what happened to the other five, but little Lottie was a fighter and didn't give up.

I fed her every day in a fenced-off area behind our meeting room. She got used to me staying to watch her eat and I took many photos of her.

The Cats Protection League (CPL) lent us a trap to catch the adult cats but the first time I set it.......we caught little Lottie!

The CPL came to collect her, had her checked by the vet and looked after her for a few weeks till she was ready for rehoming.

We later heard that the new owners kept her name 'Lottie'.

It is so nice to hear a success story and Lottie looks so lost and cute that it makes me feel better to know she has found a home. Thanks for the work that you do and for sharing it here on this site.

What amazing blue eyes! Love the picture and the story. You are a good person for finding her a home and for feeding her until one could be found.

 What a lovely story

That's a great photo - Lottie is a real beauty. Bless you for caring for feral cats and for getting Lottie off to a good start in life with a new home through Cats Protection. It's heartwarming to know there are such kind people like you around to help animals in need.

Hi Betty. What a charming little kitty. It was her luck to get caught at an early age and adopted instead of having to stay out all winter. Great job!
