Thank you for sharing your story and encouragement. You helped me gain some perspective. It has only been about a month and they are making progress, even if it’s slower than what I imagined. I play with different toys. Some soft balls with bells in them, some large spring-like ones, and their...

Hello @StefanZ @fionasmom @Sarthur2 and other fiends :) I hope you and your furry family members are all well. I have an update and a question. I didn’t want to start another thread so I will post here. Mama Cat, whose name is now Birdie, has been spayed and is fully recovered. They said she...

I am so sorry to bug you all again. Today one of the kittens or all of them have very mushy poop. Not liquid but like super mushy and sticky and it smells terrible. They are using the litter box and I haven’t been able to see who it is that has it. It’s a little lighter in color than normal poop...

I am happy to help her. I’ve always loved all animals since I was a child. I’m sure we all (or most of us here) have that in common. I feel like she found me for a reason so I’m going to do my best to help her and her kittens. The only downside is how hard it is to part with them when they go to...

Thank you all for this information. I didn’t realize how serious this situation could be. I called several numbers on the Feral Friends list I have and unfortunately none of the ones for TNR resources were still in service but I did reach out to a cat rescue one city over and the woman there was...

Oh dear. If she is pregnant, does that mean terminating the pregnancy is the best thing for her? Is that a more complicated procedure? I can’t imagine having her three kittens plus her plus possibly several more kittens here in our home until they all are adopted. I know that sounds selfish. It...

Thank you StefanZ! I appreciate your reply. :) The kittens have been using the litter box already! I have mom cat out of the crate and she is enjoying her time. The only thing is today I noticed her belly looks round and I am concerned she may be pregnant. I am taking her to the vet this week...

I will definitely try all of these tactics. I do want to earn their trust and help them find loving homes one day. I can’t let the mom out of the room yet because I have 4 indoor cats who are very nervous about all the noises and smells from the new guests. I will let her out in the room away...

Thank you all so much for your guidance and wisdom. I appreciate very much. I am going this morning to have my hand looked at once I drop my child off at school. I made their area larger by attaching a pet gate to the large crate and out a small cat tree and some comfy beds in there for them...

Hi StafanZ, I did get the set of rabies shots last year. My hand is hurting so I am going to get it checked out today but it’s probably just bruising and swelling. Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your knowledge. The kittens seem to be well so far. They are playing and eating and...

Hi fionasmom, Thank you as well for the thoughtful reply. I have been bitten once before by a feral I was feeding in 2022. I went to the ER and did the Rabies protocol. I will go to urgent care as well. The mother is very friendly once she trusted me. She loves getting pets and even flopped on...

Thank you GenCat! Two of them seem okay but the one who was wedged deepest in seems extra sleepy. I’ll keep an eye on them and take them to the vet tomorrow. How do I get them from the giant crate into a carrier? Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I appreciate it and knowing other people care...

Hello. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate your guidance: I have been feeding a mother cat for about a month. A week ago she moved her kittens to a hole near a rock pile in our back yard and they have been living here since. In the back yard. They are about 5 to 6 weeks...
