Mary the incredible momma

PFA has been blessed to encounter some amazing momma cats this season. And Mary, the lovely young black female, is another example. She not only successully raised her own 6 kittens outdoors under a deck in Glencairn until we trapped all of them, but she had adopted 3 orphaned 8 week old kittens and was nursing them too. What an incredible cat.

Mary and her NINE kittens were taken to a foster home for assessment, where it quickly became clear that while the kittens were very healthy and tameable, Mary was totally feral. Since the kittens were no longer nursing, we took Mary to be spayed today and she is on her way to an approved farm home to be reunited with some of the other adult cats from her colony.
