Hi Gothic...The lady who took them (the feral kittens) mostly just takes hard to place adult cats. And she had a beauty of a black cat there when I dropped off the kittens. I hated to give them up as I took them in for one night since mom was getting spayed the next day. I got attached to them that quick! I even named one Petey (because he looked like the dog from The Little Rascals) I would have loved to have kept him but with 7 other cats in the house just couldn't do it. As soon as I brought the kittens in all my other cats moved upstairs and only came down to eat and hiss occasionally at the kittens. I felt so guilty doing this but I know they will go to good homes. I can just imagine what mom's going to do when she gets home. She will be like the wild cat she is and go nuts looking for them. I feel bad for her but at least she won't be having anymore kittens.
I'm sure there is a little spot in your heart that feels empty withour the kittens, but you can do only so much. We all know our limits. You have a wonderful heart to care for the ferals this way. God bless! You're an angel.
Thanks Jeanie, if I had my way I would live on a farm and take all the animals in but I guess that just isn't meant to be for me so I will do what I can with what I have but I sure miss the little buggers.
