Bonbon
Location: Limburg, The Netherlands

Little BonBon was a total surprise when he was born early November. We’d already rescued his mom and grandma more than a year before. His mom was on the list go and be spayed at the vet. But of course it was as if she knew what was about to happen and she (she’s an indoor cat) took off into our yard. It was glorious weather and she wasn’t easy to catch, it took a week. Things returned to normal again, at least it seemed so. I was then planning to take her to the vet along with a few older stray kittens I had been feeding and taking care off outside. But at the start of that week, mom BonBon hid herself in the attic and didn’t come down when it was dinner time. Very unusual! We went there to see what was up and who was there lying in an old armchair, although not entirely alone!? A tiny kitten lay against her stomach, squeaking. He’s now known as BonBon and as an only ‘child’ we immediately decided to keep him! His mom not being spayed was in this particular case a blessing in disguise! Wouldn’t want to miss him for the world, but when he’s old enough mom will go to the vet, that’s for sure!
But we’re enjoying our little smart cookie every day, he loves mischief and chasing his ‘uncle’ Dentje. But he also loves to cuddle and watching YT bird movies!
