Tuesday Sundries - Crazy Cat Lady

So Sunday before last, after taking Texter to the Minute Clinic at Target and sitting around for an hour and a half, I was taking her home. 

She got a text from one of her managers at Lowe's she is friendly with. It seems there was an 'emergency' at her house.

There was a semi-feral momma cat which had given birth under the house a couple of days earlier. And with it being cool and rainy, they needed to be moved somewhere better.

Unfortunately, while they had momma trapped finally, her husband was allergic to cats. And the local animal shelters weren't taking any more cats. They were packed. So what do do?

Meet...

Starfire

Raven

Bubbles

Marshmallow

There is one grey, two dark black and one which is a dark grey (hard to see in these pictures).

Momma Cat, who is solid grey, stays in hiding until it's time to feed the babies. She comes out to eat, too, and then goes back into hiding. I don't know what we are going to do with her when we wean the babies. But since they are barely two weeks old, there is a bit of time before we have to make a decision.

I say 'we', but I agreed to this only as the caretaker. Other have to find homes for the babies and Momma cat. At least the little ones will be use to being handled and a child. When they get a bit older, a dog and other cats. 

But for now, I'm hoping they keep their little smushed up faces. 

Oh, did I mention SOMEONE in the house has claimed Marshmallow as hers?

Sigh...
