The vet told us that the best place for a kitty is always with the mother, who is one the street (actually, garden) cats I have been feeding for more than 1 year. When she was 4 or 5 days old we discussed whether it was a good idea to try to re-unite them, but decided against it because of the local circumstances: the village festivities were about to start and that´s the worst moment of the year to be a street cat! Unfortunately, it's always when the females give birth and past experiences taught us that the kittens have little chances to survive. That's why we kept her, and yes, hopefully long life ahead :-)
En fait, cela a été plus facile de ce que je pensais: à part 1 nuit quand elle avait 3 jours, quand j'ai dû dormir avec elle car elle n'arrêtait pas de miauler, elle a toujours fait ses nuits. Si on ne se réveille pas, elle dort 10 heures d'affilé: un vrai ange de chat!!
