There is a kitten living in my garden

A kitten appears to have moved into my garden. She’s been visiting 3 weeks but hasn’t left my garden for the last 4 weeks so I caved and gave her something to eat as she looks to have lost some weight (the pic of her bugging close up is a fortnight ago)

I’ve posted in 3 local facebook groups and asked the local vets but no one seems to be missing her

What do I do now????

and I already have 4 cats so letting her move in is not an option

slightly concerned she’s going to get pregnant

Wow she is an absolute beauty. Sometimes these animals are just given to us for a reason 💞

Congratulations, she looks right at home .

Not a kitten.

I would try to entice her in and get her to the vet to check for a microchip.

If none, I’d take her in and put posters up locally.

If none-one contacts you, you’ve acquired a cat. Congratulations!

She’s gorgeous! Look at her little legs tucked in💕😻 what a lovely, kind person you are!

Beautiful! Well done for giving that lovely little girl a warm dry place to spend her life. The weather here in West Yorkshire has been horrific this week rain wise.

Vet thinks she’s under 6 months

I’m going with kitten

but to be fair I also call my 8 year old cat a kitten when he’s being daft 😁
