Hi!
My cat (stray one, but we keep her around so I would say she is more like home cat than stray) gave birth a week ago. I found the place where she gave birth, it is at the attic between 2 beams that is unreachable, but could see inside using my phone camera. I just witnessed a dead kitten, the mother first was laying her head on it, but later she started eating it. I got so disturbed and sad. I would like to ask you, what should I do to keep the others alive and safe?
I don't know how that kitten died, so strange :/. I went to the attic a few times, and still go to check on them. I have put a couple of boxes with clothes for the cat to move them, and some food and water also. She always comes on the balcony to eat, and I let her inside a lot as well. She is not angry cat, she is completely fine and good and calm. But I can't stop thinking how did the kitten stop breathing? I am welcomed to any suggestions. I hope that I didn't cause her to stress out because of me being on the attic. I have to point out, there is a little hole that I can see very little, and is unreachable. How I learned? Used the phone, reached out and recorded.
Thanks a lot for understanding and your support.
Regards.
