Good Morning everyone!
Yesterday, I was cleaning up in the bedroom, doing a little spring cleaning and organizing and I looked outside, and saw three little kittens in the parking lot. I thought it was strange, so I just opened the sliding door and watched them for a little bit. They were crying and every time someone would walk by they would race after them just crying their little lungs out. So I jumped over our little patio wall and started to gather them up, wasn't hard, they came right to me. Hubby and roomie came home right about that time and we brought them inside, the guys got them warm and fed them a little water on their fingertips while I ran to petsmart and got kitten food and formula and some wet food that the 'cat person' in the store told me was a good idea.
So, we got them fed, tried to kind of age them a little bit, we think they are anywhere from 3 to 5 weeks old, they have little teeth, and are teething, but they can't potty by themselves, we have to stimulate their muscles so they can go potty. They also aren't regulating their body heat very well, so they are still very very young. For now, we've decided to keep them, even though we aren't supposed too. I don't work and they are the only babies in the house so I can care for them better than the shelter. I do know that by keeping them it will be really hard to get rid of them if we decide too, but we might not...I don't know, Hubby seems smitten...Upside they are just cats so, easy to hide from management :D
The two striped ones are girls and the little grey one in the corner is a little boy. We've all claimed one, the grey one is mine, the one in the middle is hubby's and the one that is awake is roomie's kitty.
Oh, they are waking up, time for second breakfast! lol
Have a great day everyone!
