Hello everyone, glad to find this forum. While I could ramble on with the backstory for pages, I'll just keep this short and sweet. I've got a abandoned cat who was pregnant, and she had the kittens somewhere out in the woods, and danged if I can find them.
The mother trusts me and comes over daily to be fed, now. I was in the process of gaining her trust, but she will not give me a hint of where she's keeping that litter.
I tried to follow her this afternoon when she went back in the woods and she just sat her little self down, purring and rubbing up against me, but wouldn't move. She's not going to reveal the location. And there are so many possible places they could be in that patch of woods, too.
And so I was wondering if any here have any experience with finding wild litters. I want to get them over to my place where it's safer. Let's see, the kittens are probably about 3 weeks old now, and I'd like to get to them before they're too old and go completely wild.
Heck, I'm wondering if anyone makes a radio tracking device or something. I could probably get a small collar on the mother with a transmitter if they make something like that's not too expensive or could be rented.
Thanks for any advice.
