Found a kitten
 

Today while outside in the garden I found a small black kitten. It is very friendly, looks about 6-8 weeks old, with no fleas. I know it is not any of the neighbors already. Yet it seems it was cared for. There was no others anywhere on my property.
It was damn hot out, so I gave it some water and some tuna. It ate and drank. Now what in the hell am I supposed to do. The thing has like adopted me.
:Oh crap

#1. keep it
#2. call the spca
:thumbsup

awwww...that was kind of you...maybe he wants you to be his new owner;)

Now you're supposed to post pics.

cats choose their can openers by themselves - you're stuck with her :2 cents:

Take it far away and drop it off and/or kill it, or keep it. :2 cents:

BTW: SPCA = death too, so you might as well not even waste your gas taking it there and just spend the $.13 on the .22 bullet.

Yep looks like you are stuck with the kitten.. You have already bonded.. lol

ack this is annoying.
It has remained on either my lap or shoulder now for the last 30-40 minutes.
Fairly cute solid black little thing. Latter I will get a pick when the fiance gets home.

Ahh crap I gotta decide and do something before she gets home. She will keep it I just know it. It is to cute and cuddly. The thing does not even use its claws when its walking up or down your chest, or when you pick it up off of your shirt.

post pictures!!!

My camera is with the fiance right now. Best thing I could do would be to press it against the flatbed scanner. Something tells me though that I should not do that.

give it a name.. that's what you need to do.. and look forward to the next 15-20 years as it's buddy/provider/primary caregiver.. cats are worth it, they're little bundles of fun, but if you can't take care of it, then you could always put up flyers/msg in the newspaper about finding it, or that it's free to a good home

Whatever you decide, good luck! Oh, and don't give it milk - that can give it really bad 'runs' :winkwink: - and if you ARE keeping it, you should definitely get some kitten food cos tuna might be too harsh on its stomach right now, ALSO you'll be more likely to have a fussy cat if you start it off on the 'good stuff'.. :thumbsup

keep it, best time to get a cat is when their kittens

I have had a cat before. I just do not keep kitty food around the house but did happen to have some tuna on hand. If I decide to keep the thing it will get some kitten food and all that stuff.

BTW when is to young for a flea collar, it does not have them now and well I hate fleas.

How the fuck do you work that one out ???

keep it :thumbsup i have a cat and i adopted him when i found him walking on the street like 6 weeks old too and i never liked cats before but now i do cause they are very independent ..

Nice! Kittens are a lot of fun.... good luck!

Oh I figured that's why you gave it tuna (have you figured out if it's a guy or a girl yet??!!) .. I didn't mean to imply you didn't know anything about taking care of cats.. I was just rambling on like I often do! :thumbsup

as for flea collar - often they suggest you wait til they're 3 months old - but you could talk to the vet about Advantage/Revolution - not sure if they have it for kittens that young, but that stuff is great, keeps the fleas off, but you have to do it once a month - thankfully with cats it's not THAT expensive.. myself, I have St Bernard dog, and she needs a LOT of that stuff each month (big $$)..

but from my knowledge (used to work in boarding kennels/cattery MANY years ago) cats shouldn't be put onto a flea collar til they're at least 12 weeks old.. oh, you also have to think about the shots they need too.. and if it's a girl you'll probly want her spayed so she doesn't get busy with all the tomcats!

damn, pets are expensive!

You better keep it and take good care of it

how sweet of you ..... :)

Sounds cute, I'd keep it, but I'm a cat person. WEGRuth is right, start it off on the cheap dry food or it will become fussy. That way the good food becomes a treat.

i just adopted 2 kittens, after their mother died a few days after birth.
now, they are banging my door every time they smell food hahaha
both are less than 2 months old

:smokin

You can always find a crazy cat lady in every town who will take one more cat.

I'm not surprised you couldn't turn it away..

She's got BAT ears!!

Have you decided what you're doing yet?

Or more to the point, is your girlfriend home yet? :1orglaugh :winkwink:

This is true, I had one that I took back home 4 times, the 4th time me and the owner decided if he came back he must like me the better, had that cat for over 15 years and he was a real pal
