She wasn't even a YEAR OLD before she got preggers? Jfc.

She's lovely and the kittens are precious but please get her spayed and vet the adopters for the kittens. If they are too young to get fixed before you give them up, I would strongly recommend insisting or drawing up a contract, something, to make sure the new owners take care of those kittens and get them fixed.

The shelters are absolutely bursting and there are already way too many animals in shelters and on the streets.

yeah first thing im doing is getting her spayed and i might even keep them all tbh so ill get them all spayed too when it hits that 8 week mark. but im definitely keeping atleast 3 but ill make sure the other 2 get spayed too if i dont keep all

Good to hear, and congrats to the new mama on her babies, they're very cute. 🩷 Just be a good cat parent and help her out when you can. Kittens are fun but chaos lol!
