What makes 4 week old kittens die

[Jessika]

She really needs to give the remaining kittens and their mother to the local shelter. Its very unfair that the kittens keep dying whether it be any fault of her own, or poor supervision.

She won't take them anywhere, but to her new place out in the country. The cats will be outside.

Then being outside is almost a worse fate than they being unsupervised with the lab. There are far worse predators outside than dogs. I certainly hope she is getting them spayed and neutered, especially the mother, so she does not have this problem again!

She doesn't believe in spaying or neutering. I already told her to take them to a place here that does it at a reduced price, and she won't.

Says that her kids who are 11 and 12, NEED to experience life and death

At the expense of poor, defenseless kittens!! Kittens being mauled or crushed by a dog is NOT "experiencing" life and death, its abuse, its neglect, its illegal!

If she refuses to spay and neuter her animals, someone needs to report her to the local authorities anonymously

I am sorry to say, but your friend is one inconsiderate, irresponsible person.

I agree 100% with Jessika, this is abuse and neglect on your friends part.

Oh, I don't want to get into the pros and cons about having your animals spayed and neutered because obviously you might as well be talking to a WALL where it concerns your friend.

This whole thing just saddens me to no end.

Poor sweet little babies and those poor precious mamas.

What does she do, bring her kids into the room while her dog is killing one of the kittens and say, "Oh look dear, this is part of death."

I know she doesn't really do this, is just that I am venting at the STUPIDITY of it all.

I just love this mentality. Ican't say anything else, because it would not be polite.... but thoughts of killing mom ring in my head. How's THAT for a life experience for the kids?

Like everyone else posting on this thread, I'm sitting here surrounded by cats that have led hard lives due to people just like this woman, and I find myself choked with tears of rage because I know she will not understand her cruelty.

Experiencing life and death is easy for anyone to see. She can take the children to a kill shelter. Or she can take them to the back of a mall in the early hours of the morning to see the cats trying to survive on their own, and those who are obviously sick and dying. Or she can take them to a children's hospice, or any hospice. Living and dying is all around us and doesn't need a home experiment to be seen and experienced.

I am too mad to reply anything

How's that 'experiencing death' working out for them?



Funny, I guess I was 11, 12 yrs old once, didn't have to experience it at all.
Still, I figured out what it was all about, and nothing needed to die.

What sadly happens is that they come to the Hotel as Porch Cats,and I have to make the decision to have the Animal Control tkae the Ill or Injured ones away.
Thank God for Tubby 2,Scrappy 2,Gary , Pouncette and Babies and the ones I was able to help.
And on a sad note Nugget,GCK,Angels , Charcoal Gem1, Karina and Roadblock and Tiger who are now Angels,and the sad thing is that the Careless Pet Owners are going to make it tough on Concerned Pet Guardians.
