ARGH! More feral cats! Will it ever end? PICS ADDED!

Paizly was around 4 - 5 weeks old when she was brought to Cathy. And now she is such a lover. In the mornings I can't seem to pet her fast enough or hard enough. She rubs ALL over me. You'd never know she lived the first weeks of her life on the streets. Well, at least as far as we know.

Katie, you are awesome. You have helped so many kitties just in the couple years I've been here on PT. I am glad I do not have feral kitties in my neighborhood. Otherwise I'd be afraid Bruce would kick me out.

Keep up the good work, and like Donna said, don't let yourself get burnt out on it. Only do what you are capable of handling. It's great you've got a neighbor to help you too.

Thank you so much for doing what you are doing for these babies.

It's hard I know.

Good luck and lots of prays.

MY FRIENDS AT THE ANIMAL WELFARE ASSC. ARE SICK OF PEOPLE THINKING THAT THEY ARE DUMP YOUR CATS HERE INC.
THEY ARE BESEIGED WITH PEOPLE WHO GET FREE KITTENS AND THEN NO LONGER WANT THEM. AND SADLY AS THE PRICE OF GAS , AND THINGS GO UP, THE CATS WILL BE EVEN MORE EXPENDABLE.
BLESS EVERYONE ON THIS BOARD WHO DOES WHAT THEY CAN TO HELP.

Thank you guys for the advice and support.

The reason I am doing it now, is because I am SO scared that I wont be able to catch them in a few weeks! Also, the faster they go, the sooner I can get momma cat fixed. The momma could move them, and I am scared if she does, the neighborhood will not be so welcoming. AND they get underneath and inside my car and hubbys, and I am scared we might not know one is there, and the unthinkable could happen.

I know I am paranoid, but I feel it is best. Hubby is so mad at me that steam is coming from his ears He thinks I should leave them be

Anyways, I will post pics as soon as I get them from my neighbor. I forgot to give her my email Yes I really am blonde

I will post the pics asap.

PS- It is a shame that I have too many cats here, the runt of the litter is irresistable! I want to "eated him" all up

Just to clarify TNR - the idea is to work on a feral colony; the really wild ones are released (the "R" in "TNR"). That way there is still a colony there, and a new one does not arrive to take is place.

Since there doesn't seem to be much of a colony where you are, the kitties will keep showing up.

Does your friend have any space to foster the mom AND her babies?

You gotta find people with room! Any replies you get on your ads for Fatty and Pretty Girl, see if you can find a good foster person in the bunch.

How is that woman doing who was going to foster but was going for cancer treatment? I hope she is doing ok!

Candace, I think you have the wrong person

[Catty1]

OOPS maybe I do. (so many ferals, so little brain )

OK - you DO have a neighbour. Does she have one or two bathrooms to house mom and kittens?
