Yeah, sure - even most ferals know that they are called 'kitties', but I've never know any cat that instinctively responded to 'feline', or anything else but 'kitty'. We call them 'kitties' because that is what they want to be called. On a linguistic note, 'kitty' is a diminutive of 'kitten' when applied to cats.

Iso, why didn't you have any words of wisdom to say to this post?
In , Cheryl composed with style: In , Iso composed with style: You are correct, the younger the kitten the better. That depends. Just remember that if you decide to take in these kittens it's a lifetime decision. That is not true. They can be taken in as foster cats. To find the onetruehome. You will from now on control their universe. You will control everything from feeding time to play time. You need to consider taking them to the vet Consider?? If they are taken in it is a neccessity. to be checked up and given their shots. You also need to think about if you want to have them neutered/castrated Again, a neccessity. Whether they are kept as pets or fostered until they are found a onetruehome they need to be neutered. It can be done as young as 8 wks, or 2 lbs. and declawed (although it's considered inhumane in some areas). Eh? You are condoning declawing of these babies??? If you decide that you don't want the cat's you need to turn them over to the Humane Society or a No Kill Shelter as soon as possible. They will be killed. No-kill shelters don't always mean that. They mean "adoptable" cats will be either fostered or held in a cage for a certain amount of time. Kittens who are feral are not considered adoptable as a standard. A sanctuary is what I think you mean. Kittens are predominantly adopted more than a one year old cat, Wrong. I've seen too many grow up to be unadoptable *cats* and then they aren't wanted anymore than they were before they grew up. which nobody wanted to begin with. Do the right thing. Which is have them vetted, shotted, neutered, fostered, hang up signs with cute stories about them with pictures and a sad story and find them their onetruehome. |

Probably because what you are referring to in the post, I am only fifty
percent responsible for. The mumbled jargon which intertwines, I didn't write. "Cheryl" wrote in message ... Iso, why didn't you have any words of wisdom to say to this post?

Probably because what you are referring to in the posting, I am only
responsible for fifty percent. The mumbled jargon which intertwines, I didn't write. Furthermore, assuming the author does not want to keep the cats, or they find that fostering the cats is not acceptable, what are they to do? Not everyone shares your view of how best to handle the situation. There is not just ONE correct way to handle this situation. It's up to the caretaker of the cats to make the decision in this situation, not you or me. "Cheryl" wrote in message ... Iso, why didn't you have any words of wisdom to say to this post?

Well then quit top posting and the conversation might be a little easier to follow.

Who contributed to this thread first, you or me? I haven't once countered
any post that you have contributed to any threads in any news groups. The only time I have to retort is when you call me an idiot, or question my logic. Granted we both have polar opposite experiences with kittens, and cats you have to understand that there isn't always one way to deal with the problems that arise. So regardless, of what you type or think of my postings, I won't stop contributing. All I ask is that you figure out how to find the spell check key and think before you type.

Iso composed with style: Who contributed to this thread first, you or me? Who gives a ****? So regardless, of what you type or think of my postings, I won't stop contributing. I didn't ask you to. I said, stop TOP posting. It confuses the thread. If you post inline, or snip what you're not replying to, there would be none of this confusion. |
