Ivanna,
Don't know why I did not think of this earlier - go to www.spayusa.org - I believe they will give you links to shelters in your area that offer reduced fee spaying programs. They have something on main page, half way down called Pets911, type in your zip and it will tell you where you can get low cost spay/neuter. Best of like and you're not alone - I would be feeding too! Although you got me on the bug - sorry no happy endings for bugs here - yuck! Creepy crawlies don't need to be seen "Ivanna" wrote in message om... Well I must first admit I've already been feeding it all week. It appeared very bony when I first started, but looks more like a normal kitten now. My concern is that this may be a female and that she will be bringing me loads more kittens to feed if she is not fixed. (I am way allergic to cats and couldn't have even one in the house) She runs away on approach, but stays within sight if she expects I will put a bit of food out for her. Suggestions? |

But she only does ferrals.Of course it won't stop someone who can't afford to put their own cat inne of those traps to get a freebee done.Now would it? Around here a cat owner would do that at their peril. If a trapped kitty seems to be friendly they trap, neuter and re-home. W |

Stray kitten - feed or ignore? Group: rec.pets.cats.rescue Date: Mon, Jun 14, 2004, 7:00am From: (Wendy) "Hi Im WEEniE with MyFav4ite Midi" wrote in message ... Stray kitten - feed or ignore?

I have 5 cats ranging from 1 year old to a little over 10 years old.All indoors all fixed. I myself would even think of putting a house cat in with a ferral. But I know people would do it. People who live in my building have about 4 cats 3 males & 1 female plus 2 kittens male & female about 12 weeks old. All from the same family. They roam around & know the other cats so I know if the owner of those cats especially the male cats had the chance to put a couple of her males in one of those traps & then call this woman.She probably would do it. Now she has a pitbull that is fixed. This dog is so friendly even with cats & other dogs |

Best advice would be to contact the local cat or animal welfare centre.
They are fully trained to take in strays and rehome them properly. "Ivanna" wrote in message om... Well I must first admit I've already been feeding it all week.
