I was playing fetch in the garden with Dasha, our German Sherphard, for some time already when I suddenly heard soft miauw-ing. At first I didn’t think much of it. Both our neighbors have cats, and their cats like to tease our dogs. I threw Dasha’s ball once more and she went to get it, but was apparently not in the mood to return it. She lay down in the grass on the other side of the garden, chewing and drooling all over that poor tennis-ball. Miauw. I was at the backdoor when I noticed the two tiny white paws sticking out under the garden fence. Two seconds later a white kitten with black spots appeared on the patio, staring at me with the biggest green eyes and… miauw. Uh-oh. I turned around and called Dasha to her cage while picking up the kitten. Our dogs will be friendly to other dogs, but they will not give cats the same friendly treatment. Kitten or not. When it was safe for him to wander through our garden again, I the kitten go and headed back inside, thinking he’d go home soon. But he didn’t go anywhere. When I went outside to pick him up and go around the neighborhood to see if he was missing somewhere, he started purring, nuzzled up against me and climbed into my arms by sticking his claws into my leggings and crawling up. That one hurt, by the way. I went from door to door, but no one was missing this cute little fella. I took him back home and we played a little in the garden. I then left him on the patio to go and call a vet to bring him to a shelter, as that’s what my mom said I should do. That’s when he caught the eye of our Jack Russel. She started barking at him from inside the house, and she scared the kitten so much that he quickly jumped over the fence. I went back outside to search for him because the vet wouldn’t come for nothing and I didn’t want this little cat to wander the busy streets around my house alone. I had no luck finding him.
Aw I’m glad the kitty found a good home- Oscar is an adorable name 🙂 Such a gorgeous backdrop for photos- so green!
hah! wat een leuke intro xD ik heb zelf ook weinig met katten. prachtige outfit weer trouwens.. en wat een omgeving 🙂
ohhhhhhh this story! Love love love cats. More than babies (sorry world). So sweet 🙂
haha babies are a bit different i’d expect. I’m happy for the kitten, I have the biggest soft spot for any lost, or mistreated animal. I basically turn to mush instantly. I love them all!
It’s gonna be a looong time before I can handle babies, and I’m totally fine with that! Kittens are the best though 😀
Aha, daar is je rokje weer. Mooie gecombineerd! En jezus: dat je buur die kitten zomaar negeert. Dat hij een acute aanval van diarree mag krijgen!
those shoes are perfect!
xxoo,

Have a lovely week,

Aww so glad the story had a happy ending! The kitten is sure to be happy with the little girl! 🙂 I’m a sucker for any kind of stray animal too – once on the way back from the movies we saw a dog in the road. Hubby stopped to avoid hitting it, I got out the car and ran after it. Poor thing didn’t take kindly to me chasing it off the road…ended up spending about 30 minutes with 5 other people (who had also nearly hit the dog on the road) looking for it after it ran down an alley, but no luck. Really hope it got scared and ran home to safety!
What a sweet little story about Oscar. I’m with you, no matter how allergic I am to cats, I can’t help but empathize with those sweet little kitties. I’m so glad you found out the fate of that little guy and that it was a good one.
But as for your outfit: You always have the best ones. Especially if you want to wear it everyday. You always look classy and put-together and I love it. And I love this verdant little path that you shot on. It’s the perfect backdrop! XOXO
Cute black and white outfit!! The print is really unique and fun!

Aww, I’m so glad Oscar found a new home. Although I don’t think I could have given him up!

Je top is supermooi! Ik heb dezelfde laatst in een ander kleurtje gekocht 🙂 Ooh en je verhaal over dat katje! Ik ben een echt kattenmens dus ik had hem zelf onmiddelijk in huis genomen. Ik heb dan ook geen honden en enkel nog 1 kat (die superjaloers zou zijn dan, maar ach). Fijn dat hij een nieuwe thuis gevonden heeft!

Lovely story! But if that was me I would never let him go away after he purred! 🙂
Oooooooh zo’n mooi verhaal. Ik ben ook helemaal aan het wennen aan het idee dat ik een katje wil, ga denk ik na onze reis toch eens rond beginnen kijken 🙂
Supermooie outfit trouwens, you look amazing!
<3
Haha aaaw what a cute story! I’m glad little Oscar found a new home! But cats are easier to please than babies. I’m not good with babie either so I totally feel you. But who knows, maybe this will really change too one day.
By the way you look lovely, the pictures are really pretty!
oooh happy endings. 🙂
Oh, maar Nikki, daarom hou ik van uw blog! Blij dat alles zo goed is afgelopen… (‘t Komt nu plots ook veel oppervlakkiger over, maar: schoon topje ook!)

Zo’n schattig verhaal! En mooi topje 😉
