So this is what's been keeping Kumbulu so quiet lately!

Here's the then 10 day old 'Baby' now all grown up at 7 weeks old.

And a little girl named Fluffy. A lady called me and said she had a 4 week old kitten and she wouldn't eat or drink and she didn't know what to do. I get there and there's this at least 8 week old kitten! She had very bad ear mites though, so I agreed to take her and treat her. This lady will take her back when she's better in a few days. I'm worried, though, this lady knows absolutely nothing about cats. She didn't know she was a girl and was trying to feed her chilled milk from the fridge. I thought I might do up a little pamphlet for her called 'bringing your kitten home - what to do'
LOL

Another lady called me 3 days ago and says she's found an abandoned kitten in the sand at the back of a vacant block. She's left it there for 24 hours to see if Mum will come back but she didn't. The little boy still had his umbilical stump attached. She wanted to name him 'Sandy'. LOL

When she brought Sandy over, I explained to her that he looked around 2 days old and that there could be other kittens hidden in the vacant block. She said she'd go and have another look. She rang yesterday to say she'd found 3 more tiny furbabies. She caught a glimpse of the mumcat - very fleabitten, dirty, emaciated and very very wild, and had spent 2 hours trying to catch her. The kittens were covered in urine and faeces and were so hungry, they were trying to eat the sand so the lady concluded that mum was unable to look after her babies and brought them to me.

Here's K2

Tania, they are so cute and little. I am so glad that she cared enough to call you and let you know about them. God Bless you both. They are lucky to have you. I sure hope all goes well with them and the ear mites go away soon. All of my cats had them when they were little too. It's sad and you feel helpless at the time. Medicine helps, but it seems to take awhile to work. But, once it does, it's a great relief to the cat and the care provider. They are so cute. Cuddle them for me, pls. Take care and enjoy. They grow up so fast.

No worries Mary Anne mate - it's 40C here today (104F)! LOL I guess it's a wee bit colder where you are.

Being so small, can you nurse them to health? You are such an
to do this for them, they really need a loving hand right now.

That's the first thing I thought also (to keep them warm!). That's what most of us North American's are trying to do at the moment!

Those little one's are precious Tania! So glad you are there to help them out. And I agree, give that lady a few resources about how to care for a kitten/cat!

Snuggles and hugs

Tania, you are truly an angel for talking the little ones on. About the mama cat - is there anyone that might be able to trap her and get her spayed to she doesn't bring any more babies into the world?

You definitely have your hands full! Bless you for taking care of them!
I'm hoping that when I go to Cat Welfare they will let me foster babies. My boss would not mind if I brought them to work with me during the day!
