here is my story
been feeding a stray since november....guessing she was about 4 months at the time. We tried to pet the stray but she was too scared. Eventually over time she warmed up to us but by then she was pregnant!!
She had her kittens under a big bush outside our apartment (april 2nd). 2 weeks ago the landscapers decided the bushes needed trimming!
well 2 of the cats got sliced
lucky for the kittens, my wife was home and saw the bush was chopped up...ran outside and found 4 kittens in a box next to the bush. she quickly took them to the vet to get them stiched up.
eventually the mom came back looking for them. we gave the kittens a little bath cause they had fleas on them...big mistake! when the mom came back I guess she couldnt smell her scent on them? she his't at them...i was panicing..i didnt know what to do. eventually i sat the mother cat down and sat one of her babies next to her and she went stright for the milk
mother cat laid there all relaxed so i brought the rest of them out and they went at it.
these pics were taken 2 weeks ago. all 5 cats live in our bedroom. we have another female cat who is 5 y/o. once we get new parents for the kittens we decided to keep the mom and the one who got sliced up. im guessing the mother cat is about 9-10 months old now. our other cat has been an only child and im kinda worried if they'll get along. both cats are very nice cats...our 5 y/o doesnt even kill bugs when she finds them...she just meows to let us know she finds them
the stray is very gentle as well. I hope all is well once eventually.
