I know some might remember my luck with stray kittens, that's how I came about several of the babies I have now.
Well early this morning, while I was taking Mooch out to pee, I hear a car up on the main road stopping. Sense there is nothing anywhere around us, I decided to watch through the trees to make sure no one was having car problems or something.
Threw the trees across the field, I see an old red bronco. This woman gets out, goes to the passenger side, opens the door and takes a box out and walks it across the ditch and sets it down right on the edge of the field. Back in her car she goes, off down the road.
So I carry Mooch back in and take a walk down the lane and across to that field. Yep, you guessed it, a box of 4 kittens!!
So now I have 3 kittens back on my screen porch again (one of the kittens was dead. ) Too young to even eat yet, so I'm back to bottle feeding till they get a little older and I'm afraid I'm going to have to take these guys to the shelter when they are old enough. I can't keep these, I just have to accept that, there's a limit, even for me.
But I'm now wondering, is that how Tig and Darell got here, too. Could Blondie and her kittens been a drop off too? It might just explain why I find so many strays. People think that dropping cats off in the country is safer or something!!
How could someone be so cruel and stupid? I do realize that our shelters makes it hardier when kittens are involved, they will not take them in if they need to be bottle feed, they are full all the time and to be honest the new woman there has a rep. of being so rude and making people feel like crap if they do bring a animal in, but still............you don't drop kittens off in the woods!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
