Our First Experience
Of all the rescuing we’ve done in the past nine years, we’ve never had a mom cat together with her kittens. It has always been kittens dumped in the park with no mom. I’ve got to say this has been one of the most heartwarming experiences. Sable has been what I consider the perfect mom. She trusted us to capture her and her kittens and settled right into our household. She has trusted the grandchildren and the other cats. She stands guard when they’re out playing and if Chowder becomes too rough, she scolds him. She will leave them for a bit only to come back and ensure they’re safe.
As I write this she is on the desk next to me purring and cleaning herself while Gable & Garbo are playing. Sable is such a gentle soul and if someone did dump her they don’t know what they’re missing. All I can say is THANK YOU to them because this has brought us more pleasure than I can write. She and babies have been the perfect house guests and it will be sad to say goodbye.
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

Too bad all 3 of them won't be able to stay together. They sure make a wonderful little family.
