So a few days ago there was this cat in our back yard looking for some food. When I went to take some out there something scared her and she ran. The next day there she was again. I went up to her and she is so friendly, and meowing, and PREGNANT! This poor cat, she isn't very big and she is the sweetest cat, but is pretty wide. I don't know where she came from but here she is. She was also here this morning too. I fed her some good canned food and set her up a little spot in the garage. She left while we were gone and hasn't come back yet.
Which leads me to my rant. GET YOUR ANIMALS FIXED! Both males and females. If you can AFFORD to get them fixed then you have no business having pets! Like there aren't enough homeless animals out there. The shelters are so full they have to have fosters taking care of these unwanted animals. There is no reason for an animal to have babies other than if they are pure breed animals. It is the responsibility of EVERY responsible pet owner to get their animal fixed the same as it is to feed and water them.
So now we are left in a spot. What do we do? Well DUH, we will foster the cat, try and give away the kittens when she has them and then make sure she gets fixed.
We have FOUR cats as it is, 2 of which were ones we have taken in since we moved here. We love our cats we really do, but we can not afford to keep bringing in animals and getting them fixed ($115). The food I can do since I can get food for next to nothing, but the vet stuff is what is expensive.
Like Bob Barker says "GET YOUR PETS SPAYED OR NEUTERED!"

have you heard of TNR? Trap Neuter Release. They do it here in Central Florida. They might do it in NC. Basically, the fixing of the cats is free if you work with the group. Believe me, darling, you qualify. Try looking it up online. Then you won't have to pay to get these cats fixed, and you won't feel as guilty releasing them back after the surgery.
