Neighbours a few doors down have a very young cat, who had kittens about 3, maybe 4 months ago. Post birth she was a skeleton and starving... we put out food (that our pampered beasties reject) for the various strays and the little nursing mother was turning up at least 3 times a day. I tracked the owners who are well meaning , but their household is chaotic and dare I say it, a bit rough and they assured me they were having her neutered, and did, thankfully.
But she is always begging for food, gobbles it down and is still thin.
Tonight DD2 opened the front door and she shot in, followed by her kitten!!! They both dived for the cat bowls and ate like desperate animals... there is no doubt they are genuinely hungry. :(
I don't know what to do.. I don't mind feeding them (and unlike mine they are grateful for anything so I can buy supermarket food for them) but I don't want them entirely dependent on me as we do go away some weekends etc
WWYD? The owners are not particularly approachable!
