We took the final kitty (we have 4, one a rescue kitty who's mama abandoned him at 5 weeks old last Thanksgiving week - moved the litter and never came back for him) to get spayed today and found out that she is pregnant. Yikes! Needless to say, she didn't get spayed as planned.
The problem here is that we're down to one limited income while I am still fighting for disability (stroke two years ago, been fighting for this ever since). Ugh!
Keeping her strictly indoors is not an option as I have mobility problems and she bolts outside as soon as I try to leave the house. We cannot contain her in a room, either, for the same reasons. We've tried and it's resulted in a few falls these past few weeks while trying to keep her indoors before her spay appointment.
I know her and the babies will need somewhere safe and warm (planning on setting up a nesting den both inside and in a safe place outside) until the babies can regulate their own body temperatures. But due to financial problems, we cannot get her to a vet regularly outside of yearly checkups/vaccines for our fur family.
I'm not new to helping young abandoned kitties, but newborn kittens and Queens are not in my area of confidence.
Any suggestions??? I'll take all the advice I can get!
