A heavy head

Robert, Social Tees owner and animal rescuer extraordinaire, had the brilliant idea last month or so to turn his shop window into a kind of kittens-and-cats-up-for-adoption display. As a result, there are always heart meltingly cute scenarios going on: heaps of sleeping cats, a kitten hanging off a ledge by one tiny paw and batting at other kittens with its free paw, etc. Lately, a little grey cat grabbed my attention because she/he seemed to be really hanging its head over her/his current situation. Hyuk, hyuk.



There's always someone or several someones admiring the cats of the day, and when I took the above picture a concerned woman asked me to knock on the window and make sure the kitten was OK. I did, and the kitten woke up, looked around, and then went right back to sleep. You can see her/his little ear in the pic below, evidence she/he moved!



A few days later, the grey kitten seemed to be hanging out a lot with a calico kitten, and then, a few days after that, all the kittens were gone and currently, a bunch of solemn full-grown cats are occupying the space. If you're in the market for a pet, stop by! There are tons of basement rooms in the back of this place, housing all sorts of homeless creatures, including lizards abandoned by wannabe lizard-owning East villagers and snakes dropped off by mothers of snake-loving sons who had second thoughts.



I hope the grey kitten found a good home and a new comfortable place to hang her/his head.
