Best Friends Forever

09 June 2014

This is a story about two adopted kittens who have become great friends. Jessica was born a farm kitten, in a large feral colony, but when she came in with the rest of the colony to be neutered, she made it clear that she wanted to be friendly, and had no objections to being a pet. We kept her in care, and put her up for adoption. Her owner has written to us about her progress, and her new friend. JESSICA and NELL We adopted Jessica in September 2013 from Preston Cats Protection - she was ...
