Sorry for my bad English but I will try my best so you guys understand me , I'm living in a house of 3 floors, I noticed there r 3 cats on my roof , I can't reach that place where the cats sit , there are so many houses stick to my house,I have no idea how they get there , I took pix with my drone the mommy didn't come anymore , she just feed them for like a week and she never come back again , I throw them food , there are almost 2 mounth, my question is , is it normal for cats to give birth on high roofs ? Will they find a way buy themselves, ( they can't jump so high now ) I'm so worried they will starve there till death and I can't reach the place , any good words can give me hope they will be fine!??
Please help 🙏

Your English is fine. I think the mommy cat came for more than a week after giving birth, if you believe these kittens to be almost 2 months old. If she hadn't, they would have surely died. She went to the rooftop to find a safe place to have her kittens, and that appears to have worked. If she hasn't come back, she might have perished to a predator. If you can't reach them, keep doing what you are doing to feed them. How are they getting water?

I know other members who have dealt with abandoned kittens will come along soon and offer some more tips. In the meantime, keep doing what you are doing!

Thank you for your reply, I can't give them water , the place is so high , I put milk or water on bread and throw it to them + food , the problem is I'm gonna sell the house next week and I have no idea what to do , I feel so bad and I'm a loser , I tried my best but can't reach them , I even put two chairs together and stand on it to reach them , once they see my hands they run away to other roofs behind my house , i told out neighbour he Said once they Saw him they run away very fast , they look Big a little bit , no Hope for example to get down on other roofs or Search food buy themselves?

Where do you think?
No cows milk though and bread isn't really appropreate for cats.

Could you somehow get KMR up to them or kitten patte?

Very good idea about the milk or water on bread to help them drink. It is apparently working! You are not a loser. You are doing what you can. Can your neighbor feed them once you leave? If so, they will continue to grow and find a way down the same way their mommy did.

Perhaps, if they think you are feeding them, then they don't feel the need to do so. If you make it clear to them that you have to leave, maybe they will then start doing so in your absence. At least the one neighbor gave you a sign that they are interested.

Where are you located?

You are doing what you can. I see you have had some similar problems in the past and have even moved before with a cat left behind. I am sorry it keeps happening to you.

If they are 2 months old, they are capable of finding a way down from the rooftops. Neighbors feeding them would be helpful until they decide they are ready, but if not, they will likely look for ways to get down so they can search for food.

( i don't think any one felt it before) i feel i'm an evil person and i'm the reason of all that, i have to stay to take Care of the kittens again , but i can't this Time cause i already sell the house, i have no idea how old they r ! They are stuck there , i did my possible to stay enough till they Can get down but i can't thé buyer want me out the house After 5 days, i took pictures of the kittens ( even if it's really dangerous to be there in that height) please help , how old do you think they are ?

It's a little hard to tell scale... If that bottle is roughly liter sized, I'd say they're several months old. 4 or 5 mos maybe??? Definitely nearing the age that they need to be trapped and fixed!

Cats can squeeze into small spaces and jump from fairly high... but I am worried if they've been there so long already and haven't left that maybe they haven't found a way down. Where you live, is there any services that help with animals? Rescue organizations or ?
