(8,445 posts)The mama cat showed up a little over two years ago with a collar and tag. We called the number on the tag and the guy wouldn't return our calls. Then, with a little sleuthing, I found his Facebook page. There were photos of the cat on his Facebook, along with kittens. He didn't want any of them. He lived way on the other side of town, so who knows how the mama cat ended up in my neighborhood, but she promptly had three kittens and then promptly hid them somewhere. When she started bringing them around to my yard I first tried to tame them, and then finally had to trap them. I kept them in my office for a month while I was waiting for their spay/neuter appointment. We went in and sat with them and talked to them and played with them for hours every day. They were already very wild. The mama cat, however, is tame and sweet as can be.
I kept them in for about a week after their spaying/neutering, and then opened the door and let them go. They just weren't at all happy in the house, and life was generally pretty crazy at the time. I've done what I think is the best I could do for these cats, given the circumstances of my life at the time.
