We live in a rural area and have problems with people dumping pets. Right now I have a mama cat and her 4 kittens living in my shed. She showed up over Labor Day. She was soooo thin, so I fed her. The second day, my husband and I thought we heard a tiny mewl and thought oh oh a kitten. Then when she was fed for a couple days, she started showing that she had milk, but never heard the kittens again. Every time I fed her it seemed one of her teats was damp, so I was almost sure she had at least one kitten. Well, yesterday, just before we left to come to Rochester, NY to visit my son, I was at work and DH was looking for something in the shed and found 4 adorable kittens! Oh dear!!!! What am I going to do? Already have 2 indoor cats. I can't keep them all, but have bonded with mama cat (a calico, I named Patches) and fallen in love with one of the kittens. My grandson is in love with another that he has named Clyde, but that leaves two. I wish pet owners would be responsible and get their pets spayed or neutered whenever possible! Our local SPCA has a spay/neuter program for low income families.
Anyway, enjoy your new soul mates!

The problem here, is the pound charges ppl to bring animals in. PPL don't want to pay money for animals that are not theirs.
I don't know about other states, but it is illegal to 'dump' animals here, in Florida. I always get my pets fixed.
We need a program like you have, that would cut costs for those that can't afford more. Wait till grbaby finds out, Nana has four pets now! :D

I ask our oldest DD to go up to our place and feed and water our cats (indoor) and the new "shed kitty" as she had been calling her, while we were in NY Hero the dog has been boarded). I spoke with her today and she said she had taken our DGS (10 yrs old) up along with her and he said that he will go up every day now to see them! :D
Aren't grandkids just the best?
All of our pets have been rescue animals or stays, dumped off. They seem to love you extra much to repay you for saving them.
