STORY of MAMA CAT

in #cats7 years ago (edited)

Mama cat.... aka Good Girl, (GG) has been with me for 4 1/2 years now. She is an exceptionally good pet. Sweet and loving still playful like a kitten and getting along with all the other cats, (there are 9) in the house.

I first saw Mama sitting under my bird feeder, waiting for a vole to pop up from one of their holes, or getting lucky with an unsuspecting bird



https://steemitimages.com/DQmbj6Sg9UwP16fARL4PcQFAJ5d5C6vJtkNLBu9LLyciCFX/IMG_1454.JPG It struck me odd to see an all white cat out loose fending for it'self. I saw her take a vole into the adjacent woods and tossing it into the air over and over. The cat looked in good shape, not thin. Having 3 male cats at the time I figured it was a boy. This was the end of March. So big hearted me started putting out food. As time went on I noticed the cat's belly getting bigger. That's when the light bulb went off in my head, female and pregnant cat. I figured she gave birth around the middle of May. Because after that she got thinner and started to come around to get fed 4 or 5 times a day.. ![IMG_1482.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZHbdjaq6UKurukCvtWoqV6Q3RDTiNmKKsrYCiBRy1Ztq/IMG_1482.JPG) ![IMG_1483.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQbQiVGRUT6ZATKDNVrJWKB39YKcHkGFq54YA7RkPxM5W/IMG_1483.JPG) She was getting very thin. Walking back and forth 4 times a day and nursing who knows how many kittens was taking a toll on her. She needed more help than just me feeding her. By this time we had developed a trust between us, so I decided to follow her to the den. It took me a couple of times to find it. I started to feed her by the den to save her waking back and forth. After awhile I got to see the first kittens leaving the den, which was in the middle of a partial shid of Belgium Blocks. ![IMG_1484.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYBKCmHLJ2u4PMda7acCDJJTyzEUGLTYnwEusHSz2H7mE/IMG_1484.JPG) Here is the first picture of kitten coming out of den.... Look close in the middle of picture. .....Hint, white, pink ears. ![IMG_1491.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmdn6uzXoYur1SZLyh6Xxq347RRawKjWjCPKBLaKio5zyD/IMG_1491.JPG) The story goes on how Mama cat and her 4 babies all wound up with me, but I'll save that for another time.

Well, she knew a good kitty yard when she saw it, didn't she. Sounds like a very sweet story in the making. Makes me smile!

Please hurry, need to know the rest.^^

Very kind of you!

Just a thought. You can delete the "![IMG_1483.JPG](" and also the ) at the very begining and end of the pic url when u drop it in. You can play with it and let me know if you ever need any help. I can even do a video showing what I mean

Thanks Paul, I tried different format "busy" offered and it didn't come out right, so instead of doing the whole thing over I left it alone.

And they all lived happily ever after with @manorvillemike. : )

No, incorrect, you will find out more in rest of the story..

I'll be waiting.

That is such a sweet story, about how she and her babies came to be yours.

Thanks, just posted the next part of Mama and her den.

A tomcat (male cat) can begin mating when he is between 7 and 10 months old.

Approximately 40,000 people are bitten by cats in the U.S. annually.

I'm one of them.

Cats can be right-pawed or left-pawed.
