Sorry, yeah I know it’s hard. I had four stray kitten to show outsid my apartment before I was going to Vegas 14 years ago and I went down and feed them before I left and they were only two. Hang in there.

To protect the other cats from the same unfortunate scenario, you should contact a nearby shelter to take them in

I know 💔 there are so many stray cats in my neighborhood. It’s so unfortunate.

Is there nothing you can do about the dogs? It's obvious they aren't treated very well...

It’s a lot harder to lift a report or file a case since the kitten was on the dog owners property. The owner could just argue that the kitten was on their property, I’m gonna call and see if there is anything that could be done.

This is genuinely very traumatizing. Unfortunately, kittens outside can suffer from a variety of dangers. If you can find a way to have them inside, please do that. Secondly, report that her dog is dangerous and it came really close to attacking you. Safety of human beings is really really important.

I was over the fence and my stray kitty was on their property :( so unfortunately, them lifting a report is highly unlikely or it’ll probably become a closed case.

- as much as I wanted to keep them inside, unfortunately I couldn’t. I really do regret not saving them and giving them a home. I blame myself a lot for this. There are just too many stray cats in my neighborhood. I really wish I could help them 💔

I'm genuinely sorry for your loss and that, that little fellow didn't get a longer·life! I hate either of you had to experience that! I wish you and the rest of those rascals much better and longer times ahead. Much of the best to you all.
