Thanks for the support everyone.
So far the rascals are doing well. The first one I found is the most outgoing. He didn't seem feral at all but these other two are bonded very closely and are still timid but are coming around. The little gray one seems to be the biggest and is already becoming vocal and curious. The other little tuxie seems to be the runt and didn't want to eat at first but Daddy Richard finally got him eating from the syringe and now this morning he decided the bottle was a good thing.
Their temporary names are Trouble for the first tuxie I found (but I also call him Mouth or Lungs because he is LOUD), Pops for the gray one because he is the hissy one that kept popping at Richard when he spit (he has stopped that now) and Silent Bob for the runt but I have a feeling he may be a she. Of course I have no idea of their sex yet.
As for the mom and dad, we finally saw the mom late last night and she looks okay. I'm on the list for a trap but was told it may take several weeks. None of the rescues have returned my calls so I have no trap. The dad is currently sunning himself on my back deck. He belongs to a neighbor and has been around here for a year or two. I don't know which neighbor for sure but it one a few houses down and he is well feed and healthy, just unaltered.We are guessing the mom either belongs to someone who has kicked her out since she was pregnant or maybe was abdondoned by her family when they moved. I will keep feeding her and trying to win her trust but that is hard to do when she bolts everytime she sees me. I just don't see getting her and the babies together and I'm sad and sorry about that. Have I done the right thing?
I'll try to posts some pics of the little rascals later. Time to go buy more KMR now.
