My two porch babies disappeared last night - no sign of them all day today and I am getting very worried! The two are 4 months old and are the offspring of a feral mother, Goldie, that I have cared for since winter.
They may wander away during the day but have never left the property before and are ALWAYS around in the early morning and evening.

Please say a kitty prayer
that they will return tonight and be safe!
Thank you!

Prayers are being sent and I'm going to light a candle so they can find their way home. Please keep us posted.

Debra; I just saw this. Of course, I will be praying for your babies. . . . .
Please let me know first thing in the morning if they have come home or not. It is so hard to protect the "semi-ferals". I hope everything is okay.

THANK YOU ALL!!
Today is Monday and I came home early from work. No sign of my babies yet - and NO food has been touched. I have checked along the roadside and to my relief, they are not there - but where they are is a mystery. I am hopeful that they have gone off on a jaunt with their mother, Goldie. She disappeared like this for three days this past April, and when she returned - had given birth to the ones I have now. (One with me and one adopted at the shelter, and the 2 that are gone astray) I pray they have not been gotten by a fox, etc......
I just know that with all your thoughts and prayers, they will come home!
I will let you all know what happens, and thanks again -

Have you checked the, what is called? used to be the pound? If someone else called them in, they might have been picked up . . .

I hope they come home to you, safe and sound, just off on a hunting trip.

Dear Debra :angel2:


I am very optimistic that your kitties have gone hunting with their Mommy


I know this wait is so disturbing; please have faith.

You and they are in my thoughts and prayers

Debra; I hope it is a good sign that the mother cat is gone also. I mean, I hope this is an indication that they are all together and that they will all return. I will continue to pray for their safe homecoming.
I think, as sunlion suggested, that you should try to check with your local Animal Control Center (pound)

That is my thought too since the mother cat is also gone, they have probably gone off together hunting. Ours also have wondered off today which they don't usually do. They have only been around for about 3 weeks now and I know how quickly we all get attached to them. I hope yours return soon.

Thanks everyone - I will call my friends at the shelter if they are not home tomorrow - but I don't think anyone could get their hands on them to trap. It has taken me the past 2 months to even start touching Popeye and to have Smudge sniff at my toes. I will keep you all posted and appreciate your continued concern. You are great folks!

As you know,I have been very sad today about the porch babies - and GUESS WHAT???I drove upstreet to the Stewarts store and drove around a road or two looking for them (we are very rural)- then as I pulled in the driveway THERE THEY WERE!!!! Mom in tow, they were eating like there was no tomorrow. I cried I was so happy and immediately went in and got some treats and their play toys. We played for about 45 minutes, and then Mom called them and off they scampered into the bushes. I had called the neighbors, and when Ed called back - he said he had heard a cat crying last night behind his house near the barn. I assume that might have been Goldie- as tonight she does not look pregnant any more.
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. I think my relationship with these guys may be on a different level now - but will still keep trying to trap so they have a better life. I can't help it - I love the little guys.
