What should i do


Hi all. I spoke to somebody in my pub tonight who told me about the cat he was about to shoot it police said he could and i think RSPCA said he could untill he saw a paw come from underneath the fence a baby calling for his mother. We said we would take one i think a couple has died what reason i dont know could have died of cold. He is going to try and trap the kittens i think they could be around about 4-5weeks old. His wife has being feeding them. Do you know wha i could expect.

Re: What should i do


He was told he could shoot the cat?? And the RSPCA said he could?? Thats awful. Those poor babies. Is the Mum dead then? Oh god...If they are 4-5 weeks old they will still be wanting Mums milk but you may just get away with it if there 5 weeks old. Some people let kittens leave Mum at 6 weeks, though 5 weeks is very early. Can cats protection not do anything?
This has alarmed me..

Re: What should i do


The police said it was ok to do it. He has wild rabbits living in his garden and the cat is supposed to haved killed them off. This villiage is a cat one and quiet a lot of people would be angry if they new about it. If i wasnt going away on friday i would have taken it now. I am frightened he is going to do something before Cats protection can help.

If your village is a cat loving village then a quiet word in a few neighbours ears may be a good thing. try and stop this from happening this way. Especially if your going away.

I fear for those kittens..
