Looks like I may have 2 new kittens

[Jczreptiles]

Me and my partner have wanted a new kitten to go with our two male cats for a while now. This morning I woke up to crying outside my window so I looked out and their was two kittens outside about 7 weeks old or so, So I went to stroke them and they have not left the house all day. I seen a pregnant what seeemed like a wild cat about 2-3 months ago so it may be the mother as it had very similar patern. I have looked around all day to see if anyone is looking for them but no-one seems to be, I have left a window open for them, and will do incase they want to leave. They keep going out for 5-10 minutes at a time then coming back. Do the mothers reject the kittens at a certain age? I hope they do stay.

Feral cats give birth to kittens that due to lack of socialisation grow up to be wild too. I doubt these 2 kittens are hers or they would run away from you as 7 week old feral kittens are like small tigers.
If I was you I would shut the window give them a litter tray and make some phone calls.Young kittens should definately not be free roaming

Okay I will do that, I'm just suprised no-one has come looking for them they must be quite local as there is a main road seperating my house from other estates and it is very busy so I can't inagine them both making it accross.

Yes maybe, they are very loving kittens and are very settled here already they are purring away all the time and sleeping on the bed with my other two.

Ring any centres that may have people phoning to see if the kittens were handed in, put some notices up in shops but please please dont give out any information on what they look like. If any one contacts you ask them if the kittens have any markings that stand out or any identifiable quirkiness that they will not know of unless they belong to them.
Good luck hun x

I'm with Shell - if they were kittens from a feral cat there's no way you'd get anywhere near them!

Sounds like they've been dumped by whoever owns their mother. Either that or some idiot has bought them at too young an age and let them go straight outside, so they've got lost! Either way, neither of them deserve to get them back imao!!

Thats what I was thinking TBH, My cats when i first let them out at 6 months would not of spent a day away willingly in someone elses house yet these have settled in a day which to me questions the home they were in. I'm not sure if I should even advertise i found them in the first place but I could not live with myself doing that.

I'm not very good at guessing cat ages but they weigh roughly 550-650 grams.
