I have a feral cat I feed. I just notices a couple of weeks ago her tummy looked huge. Three days ago her tummy looked normal. She must have kittens somewhere. I dont know who to call or what to do. Every day around 3 I give her fresh bowls of food and water. If she comes earlier, I hurry to get her food ready. She began sleeping on my front porch as a baby with her baby siblings. It looks like she is the only survivor. Can anyone tell me what to do? This is a very small town off 95 in South Carolina. I have looked up every rescue but none are close at all.

​@@justice2255 Call the humane society or your nearest ASPCA or a vet. The vet may be able to give you a trap but you need to find out if she really did have kittens and where they are. Catching mom won't do any good if you can't find the babies. If your able to touch mom and if you have the money buy a little camera and get her a collar and then maybe you can recognize where she's going from the camera, it would have to be a live feed to your phone, tablet or computer. You may just have to follow her from a distance, so as not to spook her, but also record where she's going just in case you loose track of her. You might just be able to pick her trail up later or the next day. Make sure you do it at the same time of day she did it before. The babies usually eat every two hours so that may be easier to follow her a few times a day, if she leaves every 2-4 hrs everyday. My local humane society paid for a vet so I could take my brothers sick puppy to see the vet, unfortunately we had to put him down bc he was to sick to help. I hope this helps in your efforts to help this cat. God bless and have a good evening.

Thank you for giving Mr. Turnip love and caring. It's bittersweet that he passed on. I've fed and fostered so many who've crossed and it's always the same feeling. Take consolation in the fact that he felt love all these time. So many of them simply do not get loved :)

He didn't necessarily have any trauma, it's more likely he just wasn't socialised to humans in the so-called sensitive period in the first two months of life.

@@KohalaLover I'm calm. The date was talked about for weeks and it was all over the place for so long that everybody could remember it was April 8th. I experienced it too as my city was in the path. No one could forget the day of the eclipse and it was an important event. On April 9th it was already done. Perhaps she meant to say the day after or she simply had her dates wrong. I'm sorry I'm just a stickler about things like that. It's not the end of the world I'm just pointing it out. People often don't pay attention and can distort things as this was an important/epic day. Also, grammar and spelling (not here) but I realized that I can't correct people on that anymore. A very beautiful story though and I cried.

You gave him a great life... thank you for taking such great care of him.. I'm sorry for your loss.

Awww, "a feral cat homeowner", that's lovely ❤

Yes, if you know cats, Mister Turnip did love you with those blue eyes....they completely changed from fear and misery to affection from afar. I have cared for feral cats and eventually they did come to be attached to me and allow some petting, but it's limited before they run off - but they all come back every day. I live rural and it's heartbreaking to see how more cats show up and I can't care for them all. I wish people were more caring like this wonderful lady or at least feed them & give them alternative bedding locations that are more safe & dry (totes work just fine with straw). I won't allow cats in the house anymore but they have a nice safe porch & barn to sleep in & keep the rodents down in return.

I'm sorry for your loss of Mr. Turnip. He had a great life. I have Mr. Bentley, tabby, who is the same way for 6 years. He is too sweet. Our relationship is strictly feed me and keep your distance. 😊

You did a wonderful thing for him. I bet he loved you. Hugs...

We've been feeding and TNRing the feral cats in our neighborhood for over 20 years. Some were friendly, most were not, but they all get warm and dry places to sleep in the winter. Currently we're actively caring for three, one who's been queen of the yard for 12 years.

I'm so glad you got to make his life comfortable and happy.

You made his later years tolerable. He was so brave to think outside the square and trust you.

@SY-ok2dq

Ай бұрын

Tolerable??? He looked and seemed very happy with his super luxurious and safe, secure life which this empathetic lady provided him with. 7 years is a very long time for an animal like a cat. It would be about half his entire life. He hit the jackpot! All those other feral cats that he'd once lived with would have been green with envy if they could have seen his lifestyle. But most of them wouldn't have lived to see it, as depending upon their living conditions, adult feral cats often have a far shorter lifespan.

@SY-ok2dq

Ай бұрын

Forgot to add, he didn't really trust her at first. He just felt he had no other options and was forced to move somewhere where the aggressive feral cats would never dare to follow, and this woman's yard was what he came across. Also, if she had cats at the time, he'd probably observed that she looked after them, seen her body language, seen that the cats were in excellent condition and were not aggressive and a threat to him. He probably figured there's enough space there (and hiding spots) that he could avoid any interactions (unlike how it was with the cat colony) and stay safe.

He loved you the only way he knew how! From a distance.😢

Feral cats make themselves known when they're hungry and struggling and need help. I walk around my neighborhood and feed stray cats since they simply cannot survive on their own. Hopefully, you'll do the same and help. Your small act of kindness will make a profound difference in the lives of these animals in need. Saving lives is definitely a collective effort. Many thanks to animal rescuers and protectors.
