Do you know how hard it is? They lived behind a school and hotel, and in an area rife with mice/rodents other animals. You would think that ppl would be glad for the rodent control- (all were spay/neutred and rabied btw). But nooo. They wanted them gone. Guess where to? A kind former chicken farmer offered their chicken barn/coop and out door run. 22 will be relocated there. I am very sad they will lose their outdoors - it was a great place, but happy that they will be in warm quarters t his winter (chicken coop heating lights, LOL) and dry. And also that they will be able to get a little fresh air. Predator proof too - so no worried about coyote or hawks hunting them... I am delighted relieved beyond measure. Am wondering if I should offer to purchase a Safe Kitty enclosure to "add on" to the outdoor enclosure so all will have enough space. God bless you for rescuing your kitten. And I hope the other kitten comes in from the cold and joins it litter mate. So many of my colony were good buddies that I was fearful I'd have to split them up...rescue kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16597558246480838666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6079474236547869496.post-23162253438517192982013-08-21T18:33:01.977-05:002013-08-21T18:33:01.977-05:00Tammy,

My husband and me are hoping a kitten will show up on out doorstep too... but we live two stories up, so that might be a problem ;-) I think it's horrible cats get dumped. I mean, even if you're really desperate: just take them to a shelter! Or have your cat nutured so you won't have to deal with a nest of kittens. Anyway, keep us up to date on Gizmo.

I can't believe how many people can actually do that! There s at least a cat or two a year left there. Luckily there are plenty of barns with hay and mice around! Hope you're able to reach the other one too!

The Bible says in Proverbs 12:10 "the righteous take care of the needs of animals...." I think from the very beginning when God placed Adam and Eve in the garden to tend and take care of the animals and garden this is how God intended us to live our lives...taking care of what is around us.. Take care of Gizmo. I am sure you will win on the "inside Cat" part. Lol....enjoy!

I also feel in my heart of hearts you may win in keeping him as an indoor cat ;)<br /><br />We've had lots of critters show up at the door, cats, dogs, lots of wild things but I'm not counting them :) We've even had people drive way out here (and we are in the bush and off the main road, no one else even lives back here) tie dogs to our gate and leave them. It's a mile from the house and I only go out once every week or more usually two or three! It's horrible the way people dump animals.<br /><br />Thankfully this story seems to have a happy ending for both of you and good luck with #2... will be watching for updates!luckybunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17663313808544386765noreply@blogger.com
