New family member

Her name was Lucy Fur, but having examined the rear end she is a he. Therefore he needs a manly name so he is now known as Monty (after Uncle Monty in Withnail and I). He is 8 weeks old and still a little wild and un-handled. He is here to provide company and help with the mouse problem. He has the usual fleas and worms but has a loud voice. Food has been taken at speed but he is happiest hiding behind the kitchen furniture.
I shall keep everyone updated on his progress from small scrap to hopefully efficient mouser.

    1. Hi is one of a litter from a lady in Friol who has a cat which churns out kittens several times a year. She has various animals in different rooms in a block of flats and I don't think they get handled. He remains noisy and nervy and has clearly no idea what a litter tray is for. It is making me move kitchen furniture out and wash behind it for once, which has to be a good thing. He has now been wormed but there is nothing wrong with his appetite.
