A few months ago, a neighbor moved and left their cats. One adopted our neighbor and one adopted us. I made a reservation to get her fixed, but she was MIA the few days around when I needed to take her.
Soooo...you see where this is going, right? She's now pregnant. Obviously so. Like I was walking down from the mail box and saw her belly wobbling to and fro. Yeah. She's pregnant. There's no spay event coming up and I couldn't afford to do it right now anyway due to a mix up at work with my check.
SO...babies...I have no idea about gestation for cats, etc. She's outdoors b/c I am allergic to cats (which is why we didn't willingly adopt any ourselves). Is there are way to convince her to stay around to have the babies so they will not be feral? (She is not eactly tame...sometimes she is, but others not. She was born a feral, I believe.) I can totally and have no problem putting her in the barn until the babies are born and she's done with them. Is that something anyone would suggest? She would not be able to get out unless we open the door to let her out and I only have 3 chickens in there so plenty of room. I do have an extra run that I could hook a cage up to inside the barn and open that run door for her during the day. I really just want her to hang around so we can get them tame enough to be adopted out when they are old enough.
