Barefoot:

I can help that desire to feed and befriend feral kittens. We currently have two 4 month old and one 6 weeks old kittens living in our house in Norcal and will probably bring them with us when we come down to TV in January for the winter. If you twist my arm really hard, I might be convinced to part with one of them - but we would have a tough time deciding which one to let go!

We originally had 5 of the older ones and managed to give three of them to the people who bought our house ten years ago up in the hills adjacent to a 4000 acre ranch. When we sold the house to them they inherited the feral cat colony we had of five cats. They were down to one and were happy to get replacements kittens that were fixed and had shots.

The day after we parted with the three, our next door neighbor knocked on the door and asked if we still had the kitten cage because there was a cat crying all the time across the street. We checked it out and it was a three week old abandoned kitten - who now sleeps in our bed every night.

What can you do?
