We are one big happy family now but I cannot keep keep 5 cats. I have Momcat and maybe Trouble (iffy). Samyn has offered to adopt Shiloh and he's going to get her if the offer still stands. I will drive the kitty to Westchester if I have to.
That leaves at least two healthy kittens that need a good home (maybe 3). I took in a young feral pregnant street cat and I intend to have her spayed and give her a good loving home but I'm not going to feel so hot by bringing some kittens to the Nassau County animal shelter. They will be killed if not adopted in a hurry. I didn't knock up Mister Mittens - all I did was give her shelter when she was in a jam. She is truly a gentle lovely and loving creature. Her kittens are all happily using a litter box at 5 weeks and I just know that the Momcat is going to refuse the teats after another a week or so - the kittens are going to be weaned and Mister Mittens is going to get her clawed and sucked-out undercarriage back together. My wonderful border collie Susan used to nip at her pups when they became "of age" and wanted to nurse and I am most certain that Momcats do the same.
These kittens are worm-free, bug-free, and hale and healthy. They are clean, full of life and love the litter box. They have lived indoors from the moment they were born and get along with us humans.
I don't want to drop any of them off for a ticket to death. Hey, I can deliver on a weekend when I have access to the bride's car.
Somebody needs to help me out here - I have no problem snapping a .45 pistol round into the heads of people who wouldn't take Marine prisoners but I can't bear to drop off some kittens just to have them be killed within 10 days.
KPMats10- give me a yell, I will have money on Wednesday from SS to toss to a non-death rescue.
