we had a cat give birth to some kittens under the house they are strays but i figured just let them be and put some food out for the mom. about 3 weeks went by and we could hear them right under the bathtub. no big deal. then we noticed we hadnt seen mom cat for 2 or 3 days and one kitten was just yelling and crying none stop all night long. we only heard one and we got worried. i sent the kids under the house the next day to see if they could get the kitten. look and see if there was more or if something was wrong etc. the kitten hadnt stopped yelling. as soon as they took the siding off the kitten came ruuning out at them. there was no sign of anymore either. we crought it in the house and fed it some milk that was a chore it had no clue of how to eat of course. i called the apca and they had me call the shelter. it took them 3 hours to get here. i didnt want to give it to them but we work and etc and there was no way we could care for it that and hubby doesnt do cats at all. he is ok with outside not really ours he thinks lol cats but not feed, take care of, inside, little box etc cats. when the lady got here fromthe shelter she told us they would put the kitten to sleep i was begging and so were the kids not to do that. just then mom cat came running down the street. i put the kitten down and walked away from it mom cat grabbed it and took off. the only thing we can figure is she forgot it until she heard it yelling. maybe she couldnt hear it yelling from under the house we dont know just glad she came back
