Thanks to both of you for your replies and suggestions.  Yes, I know she is only about 2 years old because I first saw her as a kitten when her Mom and Dad started bringing her around to eat at night with them.  She was one of 3 kittens and the other two disappeared , first one then the other...

Thank you for the reply.   I picked her up from the spaying and she is resting in the office again.    I am so torn.   On one hand, I know she really loved it outdoors and wants out badly.  But I know she will die if I do that.  I am basing that on the fact that of the maybe 20 or 30 cats I have...

At the end of December I trapped a pregnant kitty that I have been feeding every night outside my shop and I moved her into the office of the shop so she could have the kittens in safety and so I could get them adopted out to save them from a life of living in the wild.  She had 3 of them and I...

We have two cats at home and like all cats, they love boxes and bags to play in.  When I come home from the store or McDonalds they sit there anxiously waiting for me to toss the bag on the floor so they can play on it and hide in it. This week I went to the grocery store and when I got home I...

One thing that hasn't been discussed is that the cat might be in some pain and when you play with him or pet him it could be hurting him to where he strikes out a little to let you know.  You mentioned he has been sick, maybe a vet visit is in order. We had one cat who was a biter, but not a...

I'm probably going to end up keeping Mama and letting her live in the office at my shop.   I would take her home after having her spayed, when the kittens are adopted out, but I already have two at home and just can't take another one there.    It would take a special person to adopt Mama...

Well, the kittens had their one month birthday yesterday, and they are really starting to have the run of my office.  They are pretty comfortable with me and will come up and sit beside me and let me pet them.  Mama is still a little leary but she loves treats and will come up close to me to get...

Is it possible she already had the kittens before you took her in and she was nursing ?    I was afraid I had done that when I trapped a female about 6 weeks ago, but it turned out she was pregnant and had the kittens two weeks ago, in my shop office, where they now are living. Don

I got to pet them tonight, and they were fine with it, and so was their Mom.   She is trusting me quite a bit now, and the kittens walk up to the edge of the hammock where she seems to like having them, and they look at me when I talk to them.   They are starting to romp and wrestle with each...
