So here's the thing. Most of you know that we've been looking for a calico cat for a while now, been watching the shelters like crazy and nothing, lots of torties this year, bot no calicos.
There's these people that live up the road, they see their animals differently than I do, they all live in the barn and they flat out refuse to fix any of them because after they fix them, they get eaten by foxes or hit by cars
They have pigs, goats, chickens, dogs, cats, etc etc you name it, they have it. Anyways he also has a salt water tank and him and hubby go in on orders to save on shipping, they havent let me in their house or yard for years because last time I was there, I LOST it at them! He was telling me theyhad a litter or kittens born and there was 2 calicos. One with a tail and one without (most of their barn cats have no tails). I asked if I could come look at them and it took about a week of me bugging them but finally he agreed.
So I walk in and of course everything is just filthy, rotten dirty and he has 3 adult cats and 5 kittens in a stall in the barn. He lifted the tail less calico first and her bum was a mess, all the tail less babies had dirty dirty bums. Looked at the adults and they did too, litter box full of diarhhea, anyways he seemed shocked then said it must have been from the bacon, he fed them a lb of raw bacon the day before
They want $100 for the tail less ones, OMG, SERIOUSLY.....they are BARN cats. Anyways the tail less calico isnt a calico at all but a tortie.
So this is the calico girl.....
These are actually the same people we got Kasey from. They just brought her to me though without me even seeing her.
I know I shouldnt but this poor kitten will probably be eaten by a fox if I dont give her a home since they never find homes for their cats.
Shes not ready to go yet even though he was willing to let me take her yesterday' but the vet wasnt open and theres no way I would bring her into my house without getting checked and needled first, I dont know what she has or if anything.
Craig is all for it, the boys dont know since of course they would be like YES.
HELP!!!

And I want to mention, that sometimes cat's that do not have tails - have some type of nerve damage at the end of the spine where the tail should be. The nerves travel into a cat's tail. If so, there will be fecal incontinence or even urinary incontinence issues.
