Following the success of News Shopper’s appeal for a home for two abandoned kittens last month, the two remaining siblings from the same litter are now looking for a new start in life.

Their foster carer Lynn Thorburn said: “Noah and Milly and two other kittens were only a few weeks old when they were discovered in a rain-soaked cardboard box. They were very poorly, thin and crying for their mum. They brought tears to my eyes.”

Now about eight months old, after plenty of care and a few visits to the vets, Noah and Milly, are typical healthy, playful kittens.

“They are a quiet pair who like nothing better than being made a fuss of. My husband and I have spent hours playing with them, gaining their confidence and helping them get over their early trauma.

“We want to find a home for them where they can be together for the rest of their lives.”

Noah and Milly, who are fully vaccinated, neutered and microchipped, need a home without very young children.

If you can offer them a home, call Lynn and Dave on 020 8265 3210.

Anim-Mates is an animal rescue group serving south-east London. All the animals are cared for in the homes of fosterers who treat them as their own pets until they are re-homed.

All new homes are vetted. Anim-Mates is run entirely by volunteers.
