At dinnertime I got a text jacky wasn't in work so I couldn't be sure if the gathering was fed strange the way things go ok a quick spin to town armed with food twasnt the biggest gathering and the carpark was quiet I could hear a kitten crying following the sound I found a kitten in a box under the shop it's like a basement area nobody goes down there well.i had left a box there when may had her kittens one black kitten alone cold and crying eyes still closed so I assume about 4 days old held it in my hands and warmed it up but it was hungry out to Vera she has little bottles and I had kitten powder for her the story twists she has a cat that had kittens 7 or 8 weeks ago they chunky things starting to mooch about Vera's daughter had the kitten the mum cat marched over took the kitten in her mouth and carried it to her other kittens and nursed the little thing so happy days there Back to town and now two kittens in the box but it's raining here and I can see paw prints Inthe box so.mum is minding them so o left I hope they are going to be ol

How amazing that mum cat took the kitten to nurse and what a relief for everyone involved. I would love to have seen that. Mum cat must have been moving the kittens into the box. You can check later and leave food for mum if she has stayed there. You did the right thing in removing the one lonely kitten.

The local rescue has the mum and kittens I know this gets confusing there has been so much tooing and frowing the last while but the ones I picked up in the estate are with rescue lady she is getting mum neutered and is keeping her herself and will.home the kittens as soon as they big enough so that's a positive tg
