I live in an apartment complex. There are 2 other apartment complexes around mine. Behind my patio there is a carport area and alley. Ever since I've moved in here 3 years ago I have always seen cats around here. It really just breaks my heart. Every kitten season it seems I see more cats. They dont come up to you either, when they see me they run away.. which makes me believe they are feral. Which is sad, because this is a city.. with people, and apartments. There should be no ferals here.
Last night I was on the patio having a smoke, and I peeked over my fence and happened to see THREE kittens and what looked like a mom cat in the alley just hanging out. Omg they were so cute. One looked like a himilayan/siamese type kitty, then there was a tortie (I think, it was dark) and a tuxedo cat. The mom (or oldest one) was gray and white. These kittens looked about 3 or 4 months old. I made kissy noises and the himy/siamese seemed to come toward the fence, which surprised me. Anyway.. I ran in to get some food.. even though I know I should just not get involved, and not feed them but I cant help it. I threw some dry food down over the fence and by morning there was not one piece left.
I dunno why I'm posting about this. I dont want people to expect me to do something about it because I just cant
All I can do is throw food for them. I feel good about doing that at least. I hate these people. Why do they let their cats breed
I feel like putting signs up all over the neighborhood to spay and neuter your cats god@#!@#~ ! My landlord found a mom cat and kittens in the pool shed months ago. She had the spca pick them up. They probly euthanized them
I swear if I had a farm, or a big house with a yard, I would so run a feral colony. I would adopt every stray cat I could. But I just cant do it here. For all I know these cats belong to someone and they just let them run wild. *sigh*
Anyway that's my rant/story for the evening.
