One of the outdoor cats had kittens 4 weeks ago. I found the kittens and left them alone. I checked on them almost every day. She was taking good care of them. The other day she moved them and I'm not sure where that might be. We live in a rural area.
In the meantime, another outdoor cat had kittens in our garage. She had four but one was dead the next day. Two others didn't look like they were doing very well and I wasn't sure they would make it. One seemed to be doing okay. Two days after she had them, she moved them somewhere outside.
This is my concern. I feed and water the cats in the garage every day. I went out this morning and both mothers were laying in a comfy spot in the garage. Looked like they were there for quite awhile. I checked periodically and they still have been in the garage. It is now late afternoon. It has been raining today and I can understand them being in the garage but my concern is that they are not going out to feed the babies. How long can babies go without being fed?
