Know anyone selling/giving away kittens - Northants & surrounding

If anyone here is near Northampton/Milton Keynes (or within 20 miles), and is selling/giving away kittens or you know someone who is, please let me know.

SWMBO and I can offer a good home, and have lots of experience with cats as both our families have had them.

Idealy look for silver tabby or ginger, but unlikely to turn a cute bundle of joy away.

It might be worth speaking to your local Cats Protection people or the RSPCA.
I am sure they must have an excess.

Good luck.

Thanks hedge, but alas they either have none, or want me to take 20 in one go of 'their choosing'.

CP 'Northampton' or 'Wellingborough and Rushden' normally have several kittens in care at any one time, though the main kittening season is only just starting.

Neither will expect you to take more than 1 if that is all you want and they normally only ask for a donation to help cover nay vets and feed costs - they are a charity and rely on people support to do their job. Unfortunately you can only choose from the kittens they currently have in care - they may be willing to contact you if they get any in the colours you are particularly interested in.

They will however insist on a home visit before allowing an adoption no matter how experienced you may be.
