Abandoned Mom cat and her 4 six week old kittens need home(s) ASAP. Mom one day showed up at a co-worker's barn and soon had 4 babies. Co-worker is very allergic to cats and her husband doesn't like cats so they need to be placed soon. Babies are still nursing as they've been seen outside barn playing and nursing from Mom. Mom makes daily hunting trips but always returns. Co-worker is not feeding Mom cat as she didn't want to encourage her to stay. Needless to say if they don't find homes before they get much bigger and not used to humans, they may end up "wild" and unapproachable. Only details I could get are: Mom is black with white paws two kittens are black two kittens are gray/brown/white (which sounds like Calico markings to me). Since neither co-worker nor her husband want to get close to Mom cat and kittens, it is unknown as to whether kittens are male or female. Co-worker will be out for 6 weeks but if any interest in helping this unfortunate feline family, please contact either Marlene Hurley or Ruth Roache at CREKE::HURLEY or CREKE::ROACHE. Pat

Gee, the least she could do is feed the mother so the kittens and the mother will be healthy. | |||||

Well, I just found out that she was giving the mom cat some scraps from her table and water. She's not a mean person by any means and I'm sorry it came across that way. She just is so allergic to them she can't get too close. However, good news. Another Feline Noter has volunteered to pick up Mom and her 4 babies tonight and bring them to the Concord Adopt-A-Cat Shelter in Concord, MA. From there they will have the chance to be adopted out to loving homes. This shelter, by the way, is on DEC's Matching Gift list! Pat | |||||

re:2 Oh good! It's hard to think that they would be going hungry and thirsty. I'm sure she isn't mean - allergies are very difficult to deal with. Wish her luck from me and my 18 !! E.T._and_good_luck_and_thanks_to_the_Noter |
