There’s been no sign of the kittens nor their mother in over a week. So I’ve concluded the irresponsible neighbors stole them and have since moved out; school let out recently and certain children aren’t around. It’s a pisser. I should stick them for the bill on their vet care but then what’s the point, these people don’t understand the consequences of their irresponsibility with people (often pregnant themselves) let alone animals.
I do miss the little Thundercats, namely Panthra who was always happy to see me.
Our own cats seem to sense something has improved for them. They’re a little less tense and aren’t banging on the backdoor window. We have to treat the cats for fleas anyway. The precautions we took weren’t strong enough or have worn off, I found a couple on Miette. Gotta’ kill it early, it’s a long time until we’ll be seeing cold weather again.
Should Buttercup and her children suddenly return, I’m taking stronger pre-cautions to hold on to them. By now I think they’re old enough to be properly adopted, thus avoiding the fate other feral cats I see on a regular basis.
