My GF was out for a bike ride last night in the woods and heard kitten meows. We spent 4 hours looking for them last night. They appeared to be up a tree, possibly in a bag, there was a loud one that would respond to me meowing at them, and a quiet one that would respond only to the other kitten. Was too high up and pitch black, and the RSPCA were all "whatever, call us in the morning if they're not dead by then", and both us and the other couple who were looking for them had to give up. Came back first thing this morning, and found them under a plank of wood behind the bins at the cafe/gift shop... Here they are with the other person after we fished them out.  She has decided to keep the black one, we kept the black+white one, who is very comfortable and warm in my GF's boobs. We've named him "Chi". Chi's sister is very protective of him, and we feel really bad about splitting them up, but we're both only able to take in one cat.  So say hi to Chi...  He's currently isolated in the bathroom with litter, food, water and a cat house next to the radiator, that previously belonged to our other cat, Tigress. He is hiding in there and hisses if I go near him. He has a fungal infection on his ears and bumhole, it's orange and the vet doesn't know what it is but gave us some cream to put on it anyway, and as far as I can tell is going to google it and call me back. Tigress doesn't normally get on with other cats, but we think she'll be ok with a kitten, so far she has shown curiosity but no aggression. This is Tigress...  Tigress is a very affectionate cat who loves cuddles and sitting on painful parts of your body. Here she is literally getting on my tits.

To be honest the only response I could make after that was going to be just KITTIES! But I am an adult and going to use my words so holy poo poo look at them kittens  And Tigress. You appear to have hit the awesome cat jackpot twice.(Also nice to know that Kiska is not the only cat who sees boobs as a sleep shelf)

He is scared of hands. So chances are whoever dumped him also treated him shittily beforehand. Not sure what to do about this.

Pictures also help, I hear. But only if it won't scare him. If it will scare him, post more of Tigress. Win/win.

It'll take time. Treats and time and he'll get used to it. If he's already chill for pettings, that's a good start.

So Tigress hates Chi. She's ok when she can't see him, but as soon as she does it's hissing and growling before she leaves. Chi doesn't seem to give a poo poo though.

Unfortunately Chi has to spend tonight in the cat house in the bathroom as it's Tig's turn to sleep on the bed with us. Chi isn't going to be happy as he's already gotten comfortable with this house, came downstairs on his own today. However I think swapping them around like this is probably going to be the best way to get Tig used to the scent of Chi until we're ready to do the closed door feeding thing. Tig growls if Chi gets closer than a few feet, and attacked today, tiny cut inside the ear but no real damage, so hopefully Chi has learned to keep some distance. Chi gives no fucks about the growls, Tig is currently growling away from the other side of the curtain and Chi is like yeah whatever Imma roll onto my side and sleep now. He's likely going to be more intelligent than Tig based on what I've seen so far, so this is going to get interesting.

Totally normal, just don't leave them unsupervised together until you trust Tigress with the baby. This might be useful, at least to see what behaviors to look for.
