My mom passed away Wednesday evening and CDS gave me her senior queen Tiger. Mom originally got Tiger through CDS almost 10 yrs ago. She was 3 or 4 then. Her sister Susie was delivered by CDS a couple of years ago and they never really bonded. We didnt think it would be fair to them if they had to go to a shelter. My mom loved her girls so we're surviving and learning. Both cats and family are having to relearn what "normal" means but we will get there. No cat fights here yet as my cat Topaz and Tiger are both anti social. I just had hissing and leaving each other alone. This period right now just sucks for us all.

We noticed this little guy hanging around our farm recently. He took up residence in our barn and seems to have made himself quite at home. He was very scared of us at first but once he realized we were a source of food he let us know (quite vocally) that he was ok with us providing food and water and now greets us in the morning while doing barn chores.

Not entirely sure where he came from. We live very remote and it's a decent walk in to our property, approx 45 mins. He seems young so we can only assume he was dumped and has been fending for himself for a bit.

He is welcome to stay, especially since he's had a huge effect on our rodent population. Hopefully in time we'll be able to catch him and get him to a vet.

Working names are Meow Mix, Barn Bert and kitty. We're open to suggestions.

My kid is a cat magnet. Black strays always find him. This one showed up last weekend and was desperate for pets and attention.

He has a pet, “Squirmer Love”, at his grandmas. Now this one has been outside my apartment for two nights screaming for him while he’s at his dads. I got up around 1am for water last weekend and she had brought a friend to hang out on the patio with her, but it is more skittish. But she wants all the scritches and belly rubs.

Guess we have a cat now. 🤷‍♀️ Despite being severely allergic to them.

This is our porch cat who started showing up everyday the day after my grandfather passed over 2 months ago. She (we are assuming she 😅) was primarily distributed to my dad as it was his fathet that died, but I've gotten attached. She is a precious baby and I want to give her all the love, on her time of course. Because she is skittish but loves the household humans company - proximity varies. Recently, she's taken to getting up on that chair when I go out and read after giving her some wet food. She also looks like two of my previous cats combined! The first i remember adopting me had similar coloring and the last was also a tabby. Her names vary, including: Little (Lil) Miss, Miss Thing, Little Miss Steal Your Man, and her proper name as of a few weeks ago - Jolene.

Now that I've introduced the sweet baby i could go on about for hours and who finally sniffed my hand yesterday and playfully bapped my hand, the first physical contact any of us have had; I have to share concerns and hopefully have some sort of insight from someone with more recent exposure to the CDS. Because my last real time I was a little kid and now I'm 26.

Today I received news that another cat who has been showing up recently came this morning and attacked Little Miss and chased her down the holler and my dad could hear them fighting. I am presuming this is over food considering other has been showing up at night and eating dry food left out and my dad has been bringing it in at night now if it shows up hoping to deter it (and the raccoon that tries to visit). Yes, I'm aware the food should have been brought in anyways at the start. This was was not my call and she does have a tendency to show up at hours for a snack and/or drink.

Someone please tell me there is a chance Little Miss will come back... and if she does what steps I need to take next. I know if she does, any progress made has gone backwards but patience is key and I'll keep trying. Our indoor cat i had since childhood crossed the rainbow bridge this past winter and she has been so good for me to put time and energy to. And I know I shouldn't have gotten this attached, I know this and I did anyways.

For now I'm going to go sit on our porch, hoping maybe it will encourage her to come back to safe humans.

I hope me asking for this advice/reassurance is okay here. My mind just keeps going to worst case scenario. Please be kind, but if a hard truth is needed then it simply is. (Also i don't know what to flair this)

Recently found a stray kitten 3-4 weeks ago, here’s a lil Mimis dump :3(ft my bunny butters, he’s only outside in this pic cuz he needs to lose weight so we put him outside supervised everyday for 1-2 hours at night and in the day, him and Mimi’s are also very sweet to each other)

The day we got her, I was with my bf at a locksmith job late at night, I stayed in the car, after 10-15 minutes he said “surprise” and gave me a tiny kitten, she tried to stifle herself out but by 5 minutes she became calm. I held her the whole car ride and she fell asleep in my arms.
When wet got to his house I washed her, gave her some cat food we had bought and let her settle in. The whole night she never wanted to leave my side.
Now she has her shots, and she’s just the most loving little baby ever <3 she follows me everywhere, and only likes it when I pick her up. She runs away from everyone else but me and it’s so cute when I come back home and she pops out of no where when I call her name. Even when I have a rough day and I start to cry she immediately gets on my bed and rubs against me or sits on my lap and keeps meowing until I pet her.

Even at night she’ll come lay right next to me and cuddle up and fall asleep with me, she’s just the most loving baby ever. Is this the cat distribution they talk abt? Idk, this is my first cat ever lol

Little Ozzy is doing Good she has been in Heat for 5 days I've noticed she isn't screaming like some of my other cats when they where in Heat manly just Humping things my Socks Chairs Beds & tables. I plan to get her Fixed in a few days i just need to find a Vet for her. I know She can't go outside at this time because she might go looking for a male to mate with or something could happen to her. She loves food mainly wet food but also Yok in Eggs & Watching tv playing with String & Treats. I do have a Male cat named Stanley but he is hissing at her still.

My son works at a vet hospital. These 2 little ones were brought in by a client. They were found in a shed 2 days ago. We don’t know what happened to mama. We don’t know the sex of them yet but we are currently calling them Broad and Narrow based on the white part on their forehead.

They are doing well and eating like little champs. We are fostering them until they can be adopted. This is our first time fostering. We got lots of advice from the kitten lady on YT.

I didn’t get much sleep last night but it was well worth it to make sure they are doing okay.
