This morning ,i found a litter of kittens which were newborn by a wildcat  by accident.

The mother cat choose an empty wooden discarded box on the platform front of my window as its litter.

I must admit that place is hidden enough for avoiding to be found , in oder to keep its babies away from risk.

I stood and stared at this litter,observed the mother cat and babies.

Meanwhile,I felt I was lucky to find such these lovely tinny tiny things , and it was so warm and moving scence of licking and feeding babies by the mother cat.

But things didn't stick at the wonderful moment, some suggestions about how to care with these wildcats jumped out and made me nervous and confused after I noticed my sister and boyfriend this glad news of kittens.

 

My sister wants to take one of kittens back to home and fed it as a pet ,then,it will not a wildcat again and have a better life. She calls that 'reverse the wildcat's fate from poor to wonderful' .I have no hesitate to refuse this suggestion because I have not prepare to fed a pet and I don't think wild life is so bad for them ,I mean that human's way to think not cats' way.

I prefer to leave it alone, not to affect its' life.

However, My boyfriend didn't agree with me and criticized my kind is not enough for these poor fragile wildcats, in addition, told me a lot of examples which were shown the tragic fate of wildcats.

At last , I was persuaded to give some cat food for them every day.

I don't know if it is appropriated way to show my kind or just leave them alone is a better way.

After all, they are wildcat. I am afraid human's action will have negative affect on them.

I wonder that should I feed the wildcate which has a litter of kittens ?

  • thank you, but I still wonder if it is a few bad influence for wildcat after i leave some food around their litter . Will the wildcat feel unsafe because human know where are they living?
  • HI Idealist if these kittens are less than one week old then you should leave them alone because if you feed them or try to touch and hold them ...then their mother might leave them ....i have got three cats and know their strange behaviour ....a thing which you can do is to prevent them from other animals like DOGS...one more thing they are newborn kittens as u mentioned then you can't feed them on your own because they need their mother's milk to survive...good luck
