About 3 weeks ago someone dumped a mother cat and her two kittens at my boss's property. They live in a semi rural area and on a dead end road.
They plan on keeping the momma cat as she is very friendly, litter trained and a hunter. The two kittens are about half the size of the mother so I'm thinking 5-6 months?? They are also litter trained but they cannot touch them. They are to the point where they will play in their enclosed porch and with them with toys but when try to touch they run away.
They have temporarily named them (you know what that means!) but they have an aging golden retriver (and one was just PTS due to age and health last month). They also have two cats a friendly one and one with stress issues (another story).
They would like to find home for the kittens but hard to do if they cannot Touch them. At least they are getting some human contact daily!
I will try to go over their this weekend to see them. I mentioned dipping finger tips in moist food while they are in the porch! They do spend most thier time in the enclosed porch or garage.
Any tips to pass along would be great. I told them to be patient.
