I am so proud of myself and had to brag a bit
Took in 4 strays to the low cost clinic today. My only worry is that the female Isabella is already prego again. The woman, Martha, who actually began feeding them months ago, has kept her in since last week but has not done a good job at keeping her away from the other stray boys she lets in. They are all the ones I took in today. Cujo, Little One, Sylvester and is what we named them. Isabella has 2, 9 week old kittens who are at the womans house. The low cost vet I took Isabella in to last week told me that cats don't get pregnant right away after having kittens and they only get pregnant 2 times a year so there is not much chance she is pregnant again. I know that isn't entirely true especially since she was kept in such close contact with unneutered males. But anyways, next step is to find them all homes but for right now they are going back to Martha. If Isabella is prego again, she will be going to the other low cost clinic to be immediately spayed for only $10 more. The current place that is speutering them is a mobile clinic so they won't do pregnant cats.
Poor Martha was going insane with the cats her daughter brought in and the strays. She is older and sick and doesn't get around well and her daughter basically pushes her around a bit. So I finally said I will take them in to get done and then all the spraying and fighting and pregnancies will hopefully stop. She still has one mother with 2 week old kittens who are thankfully kept completely seperate from the others in a bedroom. So they will be next on spaying and neutering.
As I was leaving with the cats to go to the clinic, we saw a new stray brown Tabby coming up the path to the house. Like he was saying, "hey I heared you take good care of us here!" So he will be next too.
Heres some pics since we all love those!
Enjoy!
