Rant: People Who Dump Cats

What wonderful people you are!

My family and I used to own a small farm near Kansas City, MO. One day I
was climbing up the ladder into the barn loft when I heard the sound of
something "hissing" behind me. I turned VERY slowly to not startle
whatever
it was, and I found a mother cat and six kittens. The kittens were no
more
than a week or so old, and the mother had probably not eaten since the
kittens were born. She was probably dumped by some useless jerk because
she
was pregnant.

I went to get her some cat food and some water. It was sad in one way to
watch her "inhale" the food, but I was gratified to find that she would
immediatly let me, my wife, and my children pet her and even do a one
finger
per on her babies. We kept feeding her, and one day she took the
opportunity to move the kittens into our basement while I had the garage
doors open. It was then official, we had been adopted! When the time was
right, we didn't have any trouble finding good homes for the kittens.

We named her Tammi, had her fixed and she was quickly accepted by our two
other cats, and especially our golden retreiver dog.

She was a real blessing for the 15 or so years she lived with us!

Awww. Smart mama. That's a wonderful story. What a lucky cat.

They're gorgeous. In fact, they look exotic enough that, with
them being so well socialized already, I suspect they're from a
breeder, perhaps even one with ambitions of respectability.

Just in case, maybe you should first tell the police about having
found them (so no one can argue, they're yours right now) and
then make inquiries about breeders in your area who might have
suddenly "lost" some kittens (or worse, adopted some out too
young to people who changed their mind.)

You're so nice, ML. I was going to say something more like "May they rot in
hell."
