Paimpont 2018: Day 95 - Left to die...

Mrs S came back from her early evening dog-walk to say that somebody had abandoned a cat and two kittens in the nearby school-bus shelter. I went back a couple of hours later to find no mother cat and not two but three kittens huddled in a corner of the wet bus shelter still damp from the rain... as was the bowl of food that had been abandoned with them.

Here they are in our garage being fed and watered by Mrs S... we can't keep them but we will find them homes.
poor babies! thank you for helping them!! I hope the mother doesn't come back looking for them!

@dianen We'll keep an eye out for the mother and rescue her too if possible. I went with the intention of bringing them all home but it was already dusk and, had they been left, the kittens would certainly have been taken by a fox in the night as they have young of their own to feed.

i guess it is a situation that has happened many many times in many corners of the world. It makes me sad on many levels....but mostly that someone just abrogated their responsibilities and walked away. Good luck with it all.

What a wonderful thing for you to do!

Well, good thing they have been found . . . photo opps coming up?

PS -- that one in the back is begging to be in a photo shoot.

So good that it was you and Mrs S who found them and have taken them in. Anything could have happened to them.
April 29th, 2018  
Awww...You and Mrs. S are so kind to take in these abandoned kitties. I hope that each kitten finds a loving home :).

Oh I am so glad that you have rescued them. I'm sure they would not have survived the night with critters out there. They are so orevioud. I'm sure you will find homes for them.

The bw one is saying "Really while I am in the litter box!" A virtual friend in Texas had to knock holes in her wall to find an abandoned Kitty. Ah spring. As I said to her it beats bats.

Oh and Two says look but don't touch as this is a one cat house.

@hrs In Maine if you want tp adopt a cat or dog from a shelter it has to be rendered neutral first. Works so well we take animals from other states.

You both are good souls and am sending virtual hugs. Hope that they are adopted soon. The little grey seems to interested in what you are doing or maybe is the 'ring' leader?
April 30th, 2018  
Well done! I'd take one if only I were nearer!

A good deed. Baby animals are so cute. Nice capture that tells a story.

A good deed. Baby animals are so cute. Nice capture that tells a story or two, as evidenced by the comments above.

April 30th, 2018  
Oh my goodness, what a shame, and how sweet is that little face?! I hope you find them nice homes.

Such a sad story but one with a happy ending

@carolmw The mother was seen this morning by a neighbour over half a kilometre away from where they were dumped... we have made several tours of the area to no avail. For the latest on the kitties, see Mrs S's post for today - https://365project.org/s4sayer/365/2018-04-30
