hi,
i have noticed that a neighbor of mine never spays their female cats. One of these cats, Muk Muk, has had many litters over the span of 5 years. They now also have another female cat, Bella, who has had about 3 litters.
When I started to notice these neighbors, they had multiple cats running around. Then one day, they all disappeared. I talked to the kids who run outside of the house, and they said they went to their uncle's restaurant property nearby since he had the property for them. Then I noticed Muk Muk, and she has been a fixture for years. All the litters she has birthed have gone to friends or so they say. I talked to the father and urged him to spay them saying it is low cost and would reduce the number of litters. He said he would get her spayed after the summer.
Now it is winter, and Muk Muk has disappeared. I asked where she went, and the kids told me that she was captured by animal control, and their mother does not want her back. Bella is still there and had a litter of 3 males and the kids have told me that the cousins, who live next door, will be taking 2. However, the cousins have had cats that have also disappeared.
I will be talking to the SPCA, but my question is whether these cats are technically their property since these cats have never been to the vet, or so I imagine and I bet you they do not have any documentation saying it is theirs. My thought is to spay and neuter these cats, before they disappear. My worse fear is that these people may be even killing the cats that are undesireable, but I have no proof. However, I volunteer for Spaymart in LA, and kittens are abound in shelters. With their so-called progress of giving all these kittens over the span of 5 years is impossible.
Any thoughts would be much welcomed. Thank you.
