Mainly due to health-related issues, but here I am with four more kittens to bottle-feed and raise.
For two days I was hearing kittens mewing over at the neighbors, so I figured I'd better go investigate. I could hear the mewing coming from under their porch, but couldn't get to the babies. Out of desperation, I started calling for them, and to my surprise they all crawled out from under the porch - one by one. So I was able to gather them up and bring them in. I guess even kittens know a "sucker" when they see one.
Maybe the momma kitty gave them instructions before she disappeared.
I don't know if whether the momma cat just abandoned them, or got hurt or something.
At first I thought that maybe she had just wandered off or something in search of food, so the first night I had the kittens I put them out on the porch in a big box in the hopes that she would find them there and gather them up. But the babies were still there the next morning, so I'm assuming something happened to the momma.
I don't know if I did the right thing or not by taking the kittens in: maybe the momma is still around somewhere and is looking for her babies. All I know is that I couldn't take a chance of leaving those poor babies out there alone like that and possibly starving to death, or risking them getting hurt or worse by a possom or something.
So here I am with 4 more kittens to foster. Could y'all please send some vibes my way that I'll physically be able to care for them?
