Just wanted to share some more photos of the baby kittens which are really starting to grow. I do want to give a warning, We bought this Cage that is for small animals and cats, Never thinking much about it till we had the problem the other night. Momma cat got on top of the cage and even tho the wires seem to be small enough, she got her back leg caught in the wires, well let me tell ya, the scream was on and we were trying to help her get her foot out,She got a hold of me and bit my arm,tore my shirt to threads, and managed to bite and scratch me in my breast before hubby could release her, i have to say that between the two of us it took some doing to get her foot out of the bars. We now have secured the top of the cage with a heavy rug that we have bungeed down so it can't move. Thank goodness that we were home at the time. No major injury to her thank goodness, she was limping a bit but seems to be fine now, can't say much for me and the bites however, still very sore.

I must explain that the reason for the cage is because i didn't want the babies running all over the house with the other cats, as i am not sure what some of them might do, i keep the door to the spare room open with the cage blocking it so they have the room to play around in.

Here is Tom Tom laying down with a couple of them, he has become quiet the babysitter for these babies,he plays with them and washes them, he is attentive to there needs, altho i have to keep an eye on him as he has a tendencies to get a bit rough, but has never hurt them. Amazing how he taken to them. The other cats still hiss at the babies and don't seem to want much to do with them.
Here is momma cat feeding one of the babies that look like her. YUM YUM She says.
Now they are getting big enough were they need to find some nice family that wants a kitty, so i got on Craig's list to post them, But there is so much stuff on there about giving kittens away, the horror stories that i never thought about. One person wrote that there are people out there that are taking kittens and feeding them to there snakes. Another was a lady that has a shelter and writes about all the things that go on in a shelter, saying if they are not adopted out within 72 hours most will be put to sleep and goes into detail about that.
So now i am at a stand still becuase i never thought about this sort of thing happening. So what shall i do? I can't keep them. Have any of you any good suggestions?
