Litter of 3 kittens are sitting under a large generator at his work. He cant get to them but when it turns on (which hr cant stop happening) it will get very hot. Any ideas how he can entice tjem out? Tuna has been unsuccessful.

Kittens are now safely (if not exactly comfortably as we have absolutely no space and are having to improvise) in Celia Hammonds, and a plan in place to trap and neuter mum cat.

Any chance of photos?

hellyfucker · 24/10/2013 22:20

Angryfeet's husband has photos of them under the generator. Perhaps she can post. I didn't take any. I will try to get our resident volunteer photographer to take some when she's next in - just for MN :)

We are going to have to assess them over the next week or so to work out just how feral they are. If they are just a bit shy, then we might be able to home them normally to someone understanding. If they are proper full-on feral then we will be looking for homes in farms etc (but these are in very short supply) or to someone who is rescue-minded and happy to have ferals in their home/garden as a 'project'. CHAT would continue to provide support in this case for example if they needed retrapping to bring in for treatment.

Hellyfucker: We are fairly sure that there were only two. Everyone has searched everywhere and there are no sign of any more kittens, although there are two adults that wander around the car park, which we plan to trap, neuter and return.

And it's very kind of you to offer a donation - of course all donations are very gratefully received (we are a charity that survives in a rather 'hand to mouth' sort of way). You can click on the 'donate now' button in the top righthand corner of our home page: www.celiahammond.org/

You can also donate via text:
Simply text CHAT01 followed by a space and your donation amount (either £1,£2,£3,£4,£5 or £10 to 70070

For example Text CHAT01 £10 to 70070 to donate £10.

We also have an Amazon wish list where you can arrange for kitten food or whatever to be sent direct to our center. Here is the link to the Canning Town centre's wish list: www.amazon.co.uk/registry/wishlist/2N6NW621HXPZ9/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go_v_C-1

To be fair crazynanna, one small, black kitten looks an awful lot like any other small, black kitten Grin

cozietoesie · 24/10/2013 22:43

They look in not at all bad nick.

thecatneuterer · 24/10/2013 22:43

Chinley - I'm afraid they weren't in any mood to be upended and prodded, so I don't know :)

marriedinwhiteisback · 24/10/2013 22:43

eurochick · 24/10/2013 22:44

Aw, they're gorgeous. I'm glad CH (via thecatneuterer) has saved the day again!

True. I am regularly, even when miles from home, stumbling across black cats and shouting "POPPY!!!!" and calling home making sure she's indoors..and check the house Blush
