My boyfriend’s extended family lives in Wisconsin (we do not).
When we visited last summer, I met their barn cats - some older kittens, and a very pregnant, pop-any-day-now Momma cat. It was going to be her second litter of the year.
Naturally, I spoke to them about it. While they definitely have the money, they didn’t want to spend $200/cat.
So I told them there are low cost options available, and from a brief search at the time, I found a place that charged only about ~$65, and left them with the information.
I’d asked my boyfriend to check in about the cats, but I think he didn’t feel like it was his place.
Now his niece just sent us a video of some tiny little kittens, with a pregnant female in the background.
He told his niece - who claims responsibility for them when she’s with her dad - that she’s a teenager now, so she needs to do the responsible thing, and get the cats fixed and vaccinated. Her sisters are a little younger, but I’m sure they’ll help pitch in some of their allowance to, or at least help bug mom and dad to get this done.
I let her know that she’ll want to move quickly with the Momma who just gave birth, as it’s early enough in the season that she’ll probably have a second pregnancy again. She really wants to take care of the cats, so I think she’ll be proactive in getting it done if I can help her find some low cost options.
My boyfriend said Waupaca and Appleton are the nearest/biggest cities to them. Any Wisconsiners that can help me out?
