Unfortunately CC, the kittens mother wanted nothing to do with them after she weened them. She gave them to me, she didn't want anything else to do with them. She was getting pretty nasty to all the other cats as well. She attacked my old lady GG and that was when I decided she had to go. Of course GG ain't no saint either, but she has been around the longest and has had a pretty rough time of it. I won't put up with fighting amongst them.Our closest neighbors had a cat show up on their farm and have kittens.
All those kittens are still there, many years old and developed smart-sense from their Mother (all were TNR'ed).
When the kittens were 5-6 weeks old, we visited figuring they were old enough NOT to stress out the Mama cat. We sat in the stall, handled the kittens, cuddled them and at one point Mama (who was watching this) quietly walked up to me, sat about 4 inches from my leg and watched me. She wasn't aggressive, but had this attitude of "I'm watching you. I'm watching your every move with my kids, a-hole, and don't think for one second I won't shred your face if you make my kids cry." It was REALLY cool. The Mama cat and (grown) kittens are still around and whenever we visit we still see that Mom/baby pecking order. She still mothers them and would shred the skin of anyone who dared mess with her adult kids.
Cats are just so cool in this way.
