i just wanted to share this sweet little girl with you all. My neighbors have a buncha strays they feed and there all really mean except this one. She comes o see me morning and night and I give her a fresh raw organic egg from my chickens. Well now she's made a home where the goat sleeps and I honestly think h likes the company. So now she's pregers. Poor thing. I'm just hoping she has them around my house so they are safe and I may take one in. If anyone else is interested in adopting one of her kittens let me know. Located in annapolis maryland.

What a sweet beauty!

Its nice and swell she is pal with the goat.

But cant you take her in?  It would be safer for her and her kittens, and also, make the fostering of both her, AND the kittens, much easier.

Home raised, well fostered kittens arent difficutl to find good homes for.  There is even some demand for them.

Not so few people, who would hesitate to adopt  a kitten from a outside living, "semi-ferale"  would gladely adopt a home raised, well cared for, problemfree kitten.

Please, consider this strongly.

You are more than halfway there.

Welcome and good luck!

She had her babies about three weeks ago! They're so adorable. Now I just need to find them a home. I can't bring them inside because of the cats we have arent friendly with her.i'm also a little worried because she keeps moving the kitties around the yard and tried to put all of them in one of my chickens nest boxes lol that didn't go over so well
But all the babies look healthy, I think they may have a upper respiratory infection because they have the goopy eyes and stuff. But other than that there's so healthy and adorable I just want to find some good homes for them. I don't want to go to a rescue because I know that they euthanize

Please get some antibiotic ointment from the vet for their eyes. They have an infection that will not go away without it. They are not healthy with an eye infection and it can damage their eyes if not treated.

It is very sweet of you to care for this cat family! Are you able to get mama spayed after the kittens begin eating soft food so that she doesn't have litter after litter? Then you would have a sweet, friendly yard cat as a pet.

Is there no outbuilding or large crate that can house the kittens for now so that mama does not keep moving them? It would be safer until they get bigger.

I hope you find good homes for them. They can be given away around 8 weeks of age. Please ask whomever you give the kittens to, to have them spayed and neutered, as they will be healthier and not add to the sad over-population of cats in the world! :)
