Your not going to believe this

I do not know if any of you remember or not, but a few months back I had found a stray cat, or should I say it found me. I finally found that one a home and now another comes to my door last week. Being the animal lover that I am, I let it in, feed it and try to find it a home. Went out to clean the 3 season room, mind you this is where this cat likes to stay, and she had a huge surprise for me. 5 little kittens all in her bed bundled up together. I quickly snatched them up and brought them into the house by a heater. They all are healthy but very little, I am assuming it is due to the fact that she had a poor diet during pregnancy. I am taking them all to the vet in the am to be checked out. I did not have enough on my plate with Sadie and her puppies, I needed more. The funny thing is that Sadie thinks she is the Momma to the kittens to. She stays in the room with the Cat and kittens when she is not taking care of her own. Hoping I can find homes for all of these animals.

Wow! Looks like you need a group spay/neuter group plan at your vet ;) I think I'd be losing my mind about now. Hope all the kitties and puppies are doing well.

Awwww...they are soooooooo sweet!!! I LOVE THEM!! :)

Donnainohio63 04-05-2011 07:20 PM
I do need a group rate at the vet. The vet is not going to believe this when I show up tomorrow. My husband says ,,,,I can not believe this,,,and then eats dinner. We now have 13 animals in this house. I have Scooter and Sadie, their 4 pups, my cat Baby who I have had since she was born and she is spayed, thank God and now this cat and her 5 babies. Calgon take me away

Awe I think they are precious and I would have taken them in as well, no matter what. How sweet they are.

Sandysbabies 04-05-2011 07:44 PM
Ahhhhh, that is so sweet. She looks so contented asleep there with her little babies. Your baby watching over them is precious.

Your kitty visitor and kittens are cute. The same thing happened to me I had a stray hanging around and she had kittens, then my cat got out and she also had kittens so with all of them and 2 yorkies I had 13 animals in the house at one point. Now I only have 7 animals. Only lol 2 yorkies and 5 cats!

Awww, how sweet it was for you to be a mini cat rrescue! And it sounds like Sadie is a wonderful mommy. If you have problems homing the little fuzz balls, you might check and see if there is a Sterile Ferrel orgaization in your area. They will take the cats, spay, neuter them and find them homes. They are a fantastic organization to work with. Our barn cats came from our local SF.

Love that pic of Sadie getting nosy with the cats! Hope you have better luck finding homes for the kittens than I have. I've become a mini cat rescue it seems, too. Guess they just know where to go to get cared for.

My neighbor has a couple of them now and a couple have wandered off but we still have 8 here. They were not very tame when they first started to come but most have become like pets over time. There is one girl that has stayed somewhat wild and I just took her this morning to get spayed. It's sad because she is noticeably pregnant but we couldn't catch her before now. I hated to take her in but we just cannot have any more cats running around here. It's absolutely true that they multiply so quickly.

Didn't mean to go on about my situation....just wanted to say I feel for you.

Here's a pic taken in December when there were more here.

Ohhhh
Mama cat is marked up so pretty. LOVE the nose.

AlicetheYorkie 04-06-2011 10:36 AM
Ahhhh so sweet! And it so great that you are took them in and are taking them to the vet :D I would do the same thing but most people probably wouldn't go through the expense :( Cats are so funny that way, it's like they know what house to go to lol. I had that happen when I was a teenager and lived with my grandmother. My beagle was a puppy at the time and it was so funny the way she followed the kittens around the house and let them climb all over her :) Then we homed all the kittens and kept mommy and her and my beagle were inseperable! And I don't think the babies are small, next to mommy they look like a good size in comparison to her :D My dh would have a cow if we had a house full of puppies and kittens but I would love it ;)

As the "uncle" to 80 or so kittens, many of them born at my feet in the middle of the night, (My parent raised Siamese cats when I was growing up and I lost count by the time I was 14) I wouldn't worry too much about their size. From the picture, they look very normal sized for new born kittens.

I agree with the others who admire you for taking them in.

Mama kitty and her babies look so sweet!! And Sadie is a doll!!! Bless you for taking kitty in and helping her!

Buster Brown 04-06-2011 02:11 PM
Just love the pictures of your loving family. I love the picture of Sophie watching over the new family. What a wonderful and kind gesture.

AprilLove 04-06-2011 03:47 PM
They are so precious!!! Looks like mommy is very happy!!

Donnainohio63 04-06-2011 06:27 PM
Thank you all so much but trust me I am no hero, I am losing my mind. The Momma cat was not taking care of the kittens at first. I could not figure out why and then I watched her trying to move them so I thought maybe she felt threatened being in the open and my Grand daughter told me I could move them upstairs to her bedroom in the closet. It worked. She is taking very good care of them now and she is happy in my grand daughters room with the kittens in the closet. Sadie is not so happy about it because she can not check on the kittens as often as she wants to but I do take her up there twice a day to see them and she is ok with that. The vet says all the kittens have good weights, I guess I was kinda comparing them to Sadie's puppies which are to big for even Sadie lol. Momma Kity has an eye infection which is being treated with drops. All DH can say is.....More money, more money.....I feel so bad but I told him I have to do this, he says I know Ellie Mae haha. I guess that is my new nickname.

I do not know how you managed to feed all those cats but God Bless you. I have already found loving homes for four of the kittens, that leaves one kitten and Momma. I have a feeling we are going to end up keeping her. Hubby asked me how much it would be to have her spayed, I said about the same it is gonna cost to have Sadie done and he said well as soon as you can have them both spayed so I am taking that as we are keeping the Momma.

cheryl19 04-07-2011 01:48 AM
How kind of you to take her in. Some people would have looked the other way. Shows what kind of person you are.:clapsmile:love-hug3:kiss3::big_hug:

Jellybears 04-07-2011 06:02 AM
Your Sadie looks exactly like Darcy!! We also have ferrel cats up, we used to have a lot more than now, but we have fishers....which have also got some pet cats

Teegy 04-07-2011 09:16 AM
Okay totally awesome lady, you are a brilliant grand mother. I love that your Sadie is being so caring. I want to hear all the stories that come out of this great happy tale.

I was going to suggest you make all your puppy homes take a kitten to go as a buddy for the puppy. :) Momma kitty sure got lucky you "found" her. Now you are going to have to come up with a name for her.

And where in the heck did you find such a sweet husband? He MUST have every bit of a soft spot for animals as you have. Lucky woman!

I did call everyone that is getting a puppy and asked them if they wanted a kitten and two of them said yes so that was nice. My husband is the best man I have ever known. He talks a lot of crap about the animals but he would never turn one away either. The vet bills we have had these last 3 months are outrageous but we are managing. I just had to take Kity, that is what the kids named her, to the vet because she had an eye infection another 59 dollars but it had to be done.When they all get bigger and can play with each other I will be taking pictures for you all to see. Its gonna be a ride.
