I found it caught in a loose string wrapped around it’s leg and released it. After a couple days I’ve noticed it’s been chewing through it’s leg, now, and it’s in a lot of pain I’m sure. The mother won’t care for it either.
These cats are wild and I can’t seem to catch all of them before they start reproducing, for the past 2 years I have been spaying and neutering these cats, but more keep showing up.
I live out in the country in the US, and I haven’t been able to get anyone to come take the cats, it’s like I’m just stuck with them. A few of them are outdoor family cats, and we don’t want to lose those.
I don’t know what to do about any of it, I can’t afford another pet bill right now, especially a bill for a kitten needing so much care. Any recommendations are appreciated. I live in KY, United States
After communicating with a lot of people today, this is what I settled on. I let it go. Hopefully she survives, which I’m pretty confident she will, but she’s going to have a rough time with pain and infection for a while.
All but two females out of the cats we have are spayed and neutered. We’ve got around 15. Those two females have been hell to catch.
An old cat lady used to live a half mile down the road, and apparently she passed recently. Left us a gift that just keeps giving lol.
