A co-worker has been talking about her sisters kitten for the past month, every day....in a negative way. This girl, let's call her "A", has pretty much proven herself to be a patholigical liar...there are a number of reasons why I won't go into detail here...but, basically...she pretty much fakes having ovarian cancer.
Anyway, she has talked nothing but negative towards her sister's kitten, and today I was SICK of it. I have heard that her sister just got it....then they raised it since birth, blah blah blah. Such a liar.
Her sister moved out of "A"'s apartment today and left the kitten. "A" said she was going to just tell her sister to come get this kitten because she doesn't like cats. Well, I have heard from "A" that her sister doesn't change litter boxes for weeks, doesn't play with the cats, and is hardly ever home. Her sister took her other cat, but carelessly left this kitten behind.
"A" was either going to through the kitten outside to fend for herself or she was going to beg for her sister to come back and get the kitten. Not good situations, at all.
Apparently the sister has another cat, as well....an older male. I know this female kitten that I saved is not spayed...and I have no clue is the older male was neutered. That question struck me in the car on the way home, and I will have to ask "A" if he is neutered or not.
"A" said that this female kitten is 9 months old, but she is definitely more like 6 months old. I don't know when cats go into their first heat, but I hope this little girl isn't pregnant. Her tummy is kind of hard, but I don't really know. She is chubby in the tummy, but I really just can't tell.
I called JuJu and Zaide's foster mommy, who has all the pregnant cats and baby kittens for the local cat rescue, and asked her for her guidance. Pat (JuJu & Z's foster mom) said to call the local Humane Society and another local animal rescue group (UAF) to see about getting this kitten in for her shots, tests, and a spay. I have to call them tomorrow. If they won't help, which they should, then Pat said that she will collect the funds to get this done and I will foster the kitten until the big huge animal adoption event here in September (which I am fine with).
For now, the little girl, is being housed in the back bedroom....in no contact with my kitties. I checked her mouth for soars (like Pat said to do), and there were none. I see no fleas, she was kept as an inside kitten because "A" and her sister weren't allowed cats in the apartment complex.
Ugh. I'm pooped
. I almost blew up on "A" for her carelessness, in the matter, too. I couldn't though, as I am her supervisor.
The kitten is safe and will find a loving home, for sure.
