Been offered a kitten!

I have been offered a Norwegian Forest male, red and white, ready in a few weeks, for nothing. I'm very tempted as it is one of my favourite breeds and my favourite colour but I need to see how much neutering, food, worming and vaccinations will cost as I am officially broke these days. The trouble is, I've thought of a name...... in Ireland, all Counties and some towns have their own flag, and as red and white are the colours for Cork - he would have to be Corky! Still, must be sensible.
I'll give it some serious thought over the next couple of weeks.

Awww lucky you! They are very beautiful, distinctive cats.

Shame you have to be sensible, Gill. My (and your) instinct would be to grab it with both hands

Thre is absolutely no way I could trun down a free Norwegian Forest Cat Kitten lol! I think they are a fabulous breed! Not all decisions in life are meant to be sensible!

Now STOP IT you two!!! :smt018

I hope you dont take this the wrong way Gill, but wonderful though the offer is, I would be inclined to suggest you wait until life is on more of an even keel for you.

There will always be other kittens, and I think the 'free' bit is clouding the issue - as you rightly say there are ongoing financial considerations.

that said I probably couldnt resist either


just playing devils advocate

maybe the cats protection league can help with the spaying ,like the ncdl do with dogs (not sure hun ,worth checking ) .
i would grab it with both hands a lovely litle fluffy kitten oh im so jeaslous , no gill ignore me hun you be sensible , and give corky a great big cuddle from me lol .
good luck hun whatever you decide xxdk

I think the fact that you've already named it speaks volumes!!

Can we have a photo please gill, never heard of these.
The cats protection league do spey/ vaccinate I think, worth a try.
I dont think it wlll be long before were all saying hello to corky to be honest
