Thanks for looking out for them.

We really appreciate it.

get them all fixed and adopted! I chipped in a bit. Wish it could have been much more.

The best thing is that I get to snuggle with them every day. It's a flufff bonanza! Thanks ever so much. I know how much you already do for the little ones in your town.

got what they deserved during the Black Plague.................

No matter what else befalls me, I suspect I will never see a mouse in my house.

Hope I helped a little. I've spent time feeding cats myself and I found my beautiful Felix as a kitten in a supermarket parking lot - he just turned 4 this week!

I remember reading here when you found your little Felix and thinking how lucky both of you are.

That little scaredy kitten has grown up into a beautiful cat - and the vet said he was just about 7 weeks, which means this week is his 4th birthday! Best of luck with the kitties, you're doing a wonderful thing!

I wasn't sure if it was you or you're passing along something that you had read.

With whom I live. I don't have a pay pal account and he has experience with GFMs. I don't know what an RC is. That is our house and all those babies on are the floor behind me right now.

I didn't want to put their name in the note. I just donated and thanks for taking care of these sweet babies.

I'm a little apprehensive of using the gofundme site when it isn't one started by a DU member. Not too long ago many of us were taken by a phony situation.

Sorry to hear about the phony situation. I'm usually pretty on top of goings on here but I missed that. I do remember a bad one from several years ago....

Anyway, we're for real. The babies go for surgery tomorrow. I will keep you all updated on their progress.

I thought RC stood for Recruiting Committee or something. Doh...

Their mom set up housekeeping on our patio (it took a long time before she would even come on the patio if I was outside, but I finally got her to do that, but she would NOT eat until I turned my back to return to the house) So she had a litter, and when they became ambulatory she brought them to our patio where they grew up wild as march hares. I managed to catch one of them one very cold morning, brought him in the house, fixed him up in the bathroom with a cushion, water, food, litter. He spent a little time behind the toilet, then decided to come out to the edge of the tub.

Later that night, I went in and sat down on the cushion, with a book and waited to see what he would do. He crept up to me and got next to me; I reached down and touched him and he crawled up into my lap! I thought I was going to have to dynamite him off! I have never tamed a cat that fast! He is a much loved member of our household.

So MomCat had a second litter about 8 months later. Brought them back. I had found a TNR group so a volunteer came over and trapped them all, took them for the free spay/neuter and brought them home in kitty condos after 3 days. Two of the females and one of the males were quite friendly and were adopted easily. The other two (the Ninja Twins) were quite wild and took longer. We lost the male, but the female finally just waltzed in one day and stayed. She loves being a house kitty.

MomCat never came in, we fed her for about another 18 months and she started getting very thin, as did two other now neutered ferals we fed often. We suspect a cat poisoner.

Except for that last part, of course.

We have to do our own trapping here. But that's going surprisingly well, so far. I think we have a good reputation here, amongst the feral population, as a great place to go if you need a meal, a drink, or a nice place to nap.
