Kitty Crisis Averted

Sheesh, guess what? I go out to feed the outdoor kitties about 8am
and there is the teeniest, tiniest baby kitten out there, seriously
not more than 3 weeks old, if that. It was easy to get cuz it's so
tiny it couldn't get away. It was actually marked a lot like Google,
our newest kitten (he is 5 weeks old, though) but different shaped
face. I about croaked, as you can imagine, since I am totally
overwhelmed with about 10 outdoor cats now. I just don't get where a
tiny kitty like that would come from. I looked all around our yard
and in the alley to see if there were more (sure hope not!!!) then put
it in a carrier. I think it's too little to eat on its own. It looks
very healthy and chubby but it was shaking. I went to the neighbors
who like cats--of course no one could help, as usual. Then Tony
called this woman he works with (actually she got laid off a few weeks
ago but her boyfriend still works there). She has 5 cats and 2 dogs.
Can you believe it, she asked Graham (her charming, handsome English
boyfriend) and he said, sure. So we took the baby over to their
really gorgeous house, met all their other well-cared-for indoor/
outdoor kitties and that was that!!!!!! I am shocked. Who would have
thought? I'm sooooo relieved cuz, really, I am tapped out $$ wise,
space wise, every wise. I didn't know what I was gonna do. Keep him
in a cage and try to syringe feed him and beg people to take him, I
guess.

I just hope no one else that tiny ever shows up again. Could people
actually be dumping them intentionally at our house? How would they
know?????? Most of the outdoor cats we currently feed lay pretty low
in the daytime and only appear at night to eat. There are really only
2 that are visible during the day and they pretty much stay in our
yard out of sight. How dreadful this all is but that is one tiny,
lucky little kitty!

Good for you. And good for the cats.

Obviously you haven't heard of a revolutionary new treatment for cats
called spaying and neutering.

Yeah, **** you, asswipe. They're all my cats and I just let 'em keep
breeding. What's wrong with that? I like to see the beauty of birth.

Actually, if anyone is reading this other than that dickhead, Cat Guy,
Google is 5 months old, not 5 weeks.

OTOH a healthy chubby kit might not be far from the mother. You might
have forced ween the little thing.

LOL! Yeah, Candace, keep breeding those kitties - they make a real good
stew if you run out of squirrels in your neighborhood! ;

I can understand that, so video tape it. Over-population is a HUGE
problem and you yourself state that you are "overwhelmed" with cats.
70% of all cats entering shelters are euthanized. 70%!!!! Population
control by spaying and neutering is the only responsible thing to do
to help stop the killing of innocent animals. I am not targeting you
specifically just the mentality. Unfortunately there are far too many
people who have this same attitude towards the animals in their care
and millions of them end up in rescues and kill-shelters EVERY YEAR.
Millions more DIE because there aren't enough responsible pet parents
to go around. Please, please give this alot of thought Candice. You
are not doing your kitties any favors by letting them breed
indiscrimately.
