I have a stray cat that "lives" on my front porch. I started feeding her last winter when the temperature was staying at 0° or below for about a week and I (the softie) felt sorry for her. She had four kittens five weeks ago today. Two of them died within the first 24 hours. A third one died about two weeks ago (yes, I buried them all). I keep her in a box about 20 inches tall and she has been trying to get out. So far she can't reach the top of the box but she's constantly trying. I'd like to adopt her and bring her in the house as I'm afraid that if she gets out that that's the last I'll see of her. I bought some cat milk and kitten chow & I've been crushing it up before adding the milk and am giving it to her at least once per day. I already have a 12 year old cat that I've had since he was about 10 weeks old. He was neutered at six months. I've brought the kitten in the house a couple of times in the last week or so and he seems to be OK with her although I'm not sure how'd he react to having her around full time. I don't want mama cat in the house (I'm guessing she's at least a year old) as she's always been an outside cat I think he (maybe both of them) would be very upset if I did. I really can't afford to have mama cat fixed right now but I don't see a problem getting "Patches" fixed when she's old enough. So I guess I have the same question as to whether I can bring her in in the next week or two as long as I'm giving her proper nutrition. Suggestions?
