Early on Monday morning I had laid out lots of cat food and the feral cats ate well. I got out to ShopRite for a warm muffin when the bride got home from that wedding out east on Long Island and when I got back I laid out more cat food. That's when I began to set up the kitchen table for my Cheerios, a sliced banana, my muffin, Irish butter and had some Maxwell House Breakfast Blend brewing with a couple of scoops of Colombian to give it some body. I could see out back when I finally sat down and saw an orange tom over one of Catty Patty's kittens that just got out of the garage and began walking. I have no idea if the cat killed the kitten. I raced outside and the cat picked up the kitten by the scruff and began walking away. The cat galloped away with the kitten when I got outside. I have never seen an adult feral cat hurt a kitten, and certainly not when good food is available in nice weather. I have seen unrelated feral cats "stand guard" over small kittens that were in play and frolic out back. I have never seen a cat go "cannibal" at any time. I am bewildered but if I find out that the kitten is dead I could be going to a closet for an old Colt .45 pistol Model 1911-A1 with an orange cat on my mind. And yeah, later on Catty Patty was all over the backyard looking for her kitten and so was the young recently-neutered tom Bosco. Cats don't eat cats, right? |

WHERE did Mom cat take the kitten? Was this kitten one that was sick or frail? Never heard of adult cat attacking kitten especially when plentiful food |

The kitten wasn't sick. The adult male ran off with it. |

The kitten is back. The wife went out to the garage this morning and there was Catty Patty with her two kittens. I have no idea when the kitten was returned unharmed or who did it. Just another head scratcher with a happy ending. |
