Romalda's story

Romalda is a very lucky black kitten. She was brought in here back in July by one of our CCAs who rescued a couple of litters of kittens which were born outside. She brought in little Romalda just in time, she was very poorly, thin and very hungry. She stayed in a foster home with CCA Gemma for a few weeks, she had runny eyes which needed bathing and medication....and of course lots of TLC. She was thin and needed lots of small meals to help build her up.

During her time at Gemma's she got much stronger and started to play like a normal kitten of her age. She loved sitting on her cuddly toy cow (which was much bigger than her), pouncing on her toy bird, batting a ping-pong ball around her pen and chasing her tail. Romalda was a bit nervous when she first came in to us, now she is getting very brave and has stolen the heart of all the girls who has spent time with her.  

After weeks of TLC in her foster home, she returned to Axhayes where she was vaccinated, neutered and spent a few weeks waiting for a pen to become available in our rehoming section. During her time in our admissions section our CCA Therese spent lots of time socialising little Romalda to help her become more confident. She now loves cuddles and attention, she will sit at the front of her pen when she sees people instead of hiding in her bed. She loves to play games with you too. Last week Therese gave her a very girly lilac fluffy bed for her to sleep in, which Romalda loved!

Nearly two months later, little Romalda is looking much better, she is much happier and is now waiting in our rehoming section for someone to take her home. If you have the time and love to offer this wonderful girl then you will get so much back! Please give her a chance, you won’t regret it!
