You do an amazing job caring for the unwanted kitties. However I wish you weren't needed if you catch my drift. If people looked after their cars and got them fixed there wouldn't be any kitties struggling to survive. But until then I am grateful for all your hard work Hannah. ❤️
I have a not so little anymore black kitten sleeping next to me because people are still irresponsible. His mom got to have her babies inside but the mom's owner was going to dump the kittens if my sister and I didn't take them that day. He supposedly wanted to keep the runt for his kids but we found out a few weeks later that someone found a single black kitten on that street that looked strikingly similar to the 2 we took. We'll never know for sure but we have our suspicions
I feel like the people who found these babies did a good job, they tried waiting for mom to come back but when she didn’t they made sure the three beebees were safe, and then the rest of the family is here too, yay!
OMG last night we found 2 kittens and saw mom with a third, but in a separate spot. Last night we got the kittens and today we caught momma!!!! They're in my spare daughter's room for now. This video is my life right now! Thanks for all you do.
@@robinv6461 lol what the heck??? they meant spare room, their daughter might be off to college so their daughter's room is now a spare room they have available :P
Thank you for explaining to masses what the full cycle is. Not everyone is taking into account, that finding mother cat and the rest of the kittens is so important.
Me and a neighbor trapped a couple of dumped kittens (about ten-months-old) up in the mountains. The local Humane Society are helping us. Your videos have been SO helpful to me as a first time foster, and now a kitty-trapper, too! Thank you, Kitten Lady!
@@user-qr8ki8ue4i how did you realise that? Did they reveal that in interrogation? Of course not. The cats were outside & living, you caught them in a trap. That by its very definition is “trapping a wild cat”
This is similar to my cat's story. She's a young cat, the vet thinks she's under two years, I've had her for a year. She was found under a deck in MD with three kittens. Some kind soul brought them to King Street Cats in Alexandria VA where she stayed until coming home with me. She's such a sweet cat, I always wonder how, why she ended up under that deck. It's Thanksgiving and I am grateful that there are people like you who not only care for homeless cats but more importantly, do such a great advocacy work.
You live in my neck of the woods! It's irresponsible for people not to spay and neuter, I just don't get it. Your cat has a loving home and I wish all cats and dogs could have the same.
If anyone else who does TNR and fosters read this, you are all great people and ya'll dont get enough credit for the lives you change for our furry friends
Last winter I cooperated with my local shelter to TNR *12* community cats. Two of them were actually not released, because they were tame enough to be rehomed. Just imagine how many kittens we prevented from coming into an existence of struggle!
Don't forget the importance of colony managers. After the cats are returned, we are the people going without in order to feed, monitor the health and make sure new cats are spayed/neutered. I've done rescue, foster, and trapped and being a colony manager is the hardest part. I care for these cat 365 days a year on my own time and dime without any outside support. I wish TNR would do a better job of acknowledging that colony managers are a vital part of the process.
I volunteer with a local cat rescue. I'm not old enough to be part of the TNR program, and can't foster because we have a dog already, but I go in and socialize with the cats so they get used to people! If you want to help out but are in a similar situation, it's a great option :)
@@AstralArbourSystem young people should be able to help out with TNR. I don't understand that. You could help set traps or help feed colonies. I can understand liability in actually handling Community Cats, but preparing/cleaning traps, etc, shouldn't be an issue.
I volunteer with a TNR group that does neuters almost every month (about 10 / year). They recently had a mom with 4 kittens. They seemed pretty tame, so were probably cared-for strays. Kittens were about 4 weeks old, and they, and mom were being kept at the shelter until all were big enough for neuter. Meanwhile, a tiny 1 week orphan was found without a mom. I don't think they did a quarantine of the tiny orphan (probably checked it over for fleas or obvious respiratory issues). Orphan was introduced to "mom," and mom accepted it into her litter! She was such a sweet momma to her 4 and to the orphan 😻 Luckily, no diseases passed among them, and orphan got about two weeks of milk before they had to separate the kittens. The older kittens were starting to get too strong / rough when playing with the much younger orphan. Orphan then went to a foster human, and was old enough for 4 hour feedings (instead of the 2 hour feeds of newborns).
I have a wild mama that I feed outside. She has had a litter of kittens the last two years but I have never found them. I want to get her fixed so December 4 I have an appointment for her and the unfixed male that hangs around too. See I live in a Mobile Home park in the country, and people move out and leave their unwanted cats behind. Also, I think people dump them too because about 4-5 kittens show up at once and they are friendly to humans like they have been with someone. The humane society comes out and gets some of them.
What a wonderful ambassador for cat guardianship! My own 2 adults are sleeping happily. But she is right, we don't need any more kittens in the shelters!
My girl cat was a foster. She was 3 months when they git her. She was initially reluctant. The second slowest of her litter to warm up to humans. Now she sleeps on my face.
As of yesterday, I took in my first pair of foster kittens (two little black females named Cheetah and Lion) and have so far applied my prior knowledge from working at my local cat shelter to create a daily routine. Change and clean the litter box, refill food and water, check-in breaks for play time, etc. It feels good knowing that the short time I have them will go a long way for the shelter, and I have you in part to thank for making that change in my life.
The day after Christmas 2021 my wife's friends found a single 6 or 7 week old kitten in the snow on the side of the road. They rescued him and gave him to my wife. At my insistence they went back to that area and over the course of two days found three more kittens and momma cat. They kept them together but the 4th had already settled into our house so he mostly stayed here with occasional visits to see his mother and siblings. Now he's a year old and 14 lbs and huge, so much so that he dwarfs our 11 lb nine year old cat!
Aww, stories like this...heartwarming and heartwrenching at the same time... Thank you, amazing Hanna, for saving defenseless, helpless, extremely lovable kitties.
Excelllent job explaining the issues involved and how to solve them. I'm so glad they found the mama and 4th kitten and they can all be reunited in a couple of weeks. Good for the neighbor and y'all, and what a good mama cat that is, she looks good. Hoping the reunion works fine for all concerned. Great lesson for people who want to help but don't know where to start. Great review for those of us who think we know anything but don't. :D
The new mama you found looks just like my little Betty! I have 8, all rescues and all fixed! Those babies and their mom are just so blessed to have been found and taken off the streets. No more babies from that group and if mom is a truly feral and must return to her community, at least she will have a better life from now on. They are all just so beautiful!!
A few weeks ago we found 4 2-week old kittens under our house after hearing them through the night. Haven't been able to find mama yet, but your videos and website have been so immensely helpful raising these bottle babies!!
You are so right, sometimes trapping kittens is so complicated…never can be simple with these little stinkers! 😂 I recently had a litter where mom and 1 baby just refused to be trapped…we tried a lot of different methods. 🙃 The two other kittens are already out of foster and into amazing homes, but I’m still upset we weren’t able to get mama and the other baby is probably going to have to be a TNR at this point. 😕 I’m going to keep trying to trap through the winter months though, because I’m freaking tired of rescuing kittens from the same warehouse every few months.
This is amazing! My kitten is a tortise shell and we rescued her from the streets when she was 2 weeks! She's 6 months now and has a big brother his name is cisco! I love your videos!
Thanks for saving this beautiful cat family! I love your kindness and dedication. Your videos are amazing. Thanks for everything you do for these beautiful kittens and cats!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️😻😻😻😻
I had a cat that had kittens under our shed, I was able to catch the babies and find them homes. Then, of course, she had some more, long story short before we could catch her and get her spayed we now have 10 cats from a couple different litters, plus a couple of her kittens had kittens. But some other cats showed up, and we suspect it was our elderly neighbors, so I got a trap from RAL, after 2 1/2 years I have gotten 11 females spayed, and 3 males for free through RAL. And at RAL we got low-cost spaying and neutering for the ones we kept. For those in the Richmond Va area, RAL is the Richmond Animal League, if you have a feral cat issue, you can go online for their phone number and information. The trap was $75 refundable, but when I finished and turned my trap in, I donated the $75 back to them. We aren't rich, so I did what I could, with RAL's help we couldn't have done it. Thank you RAL
I’m So touched by this video What an Amazing job you are doing👍 You have a heart of gold doing the work that you do 🥹Thank you for keeping these kittens and mom so safe and well cared for ❤️❤️❤️❤️ all your efforts in trying to find the mom and that last 4th kitten wow I appreciate you 👍 I wish you many more views and subscribers to your channel we all need more compassion in the world like this🎉
Your videos help a whole lot. Last year September I took in a stray cat, about 7 months old. Last week she gave birth to 6 kittens. Yesterday I took her to the vet. First rabies shot for her. But last night she threw up and now I can't find her. I'm worried that she's dehydrated, and when I watched your video about feeding kittens, a breathed a sigh of relief. Thank you so much. I hope she'll come back home. God bless you
Hey Hannah me and my wife who is a Vet tech are huge cat people I worked for a board of Education in NJ I saved 2 separate litters 1st litter boy and girl Fred and Princess 2nd litter 2 boys and 2 girls My boy Finn then guiness daisy and the runt of the litter pewny your a great person Hannah God Bless all that you do for the kitties mom was trapped nurtured and released
Hannah, please do a video on the importance of colony managers. I care for a colony of Community Cats and we colony managers get no love or support whatsoever. Most of us are older, low-income and struggle to care for cats that don't belong to us. I get all of 841 SSI every month and with the current inflation I've had to go without in order to care for these cats. It seems that rescuers and trappers get all the support and focus. Yet, we are the people making sure the colony is fed, vetted, and any new cats are either placed in rescue (if one can be found) or spayed/neutered. Don't get me wrong. I love these cats. I have PTSD and I can appreciate the resilience of these amazing creatures. But, between the colony and my indoor crew, I'm feeding 11 cats and I easily spend 100 or more a month on their care. There really needs to be more Community support for colony managers. Fixing the issue of Community Cats shouldn't fall on the shoulders of some of the most vulnerable people in society. That's why we get hoarding situations. So, many colony managers have issues themselves that they push aside, because they are trying to help the cats without any outside support.
@@joykieleski3985 Thank you! I have good relationships with folks who trap and run rescues. But, my concern is that I see so many colony managers who don't understand TNR and just feed. You can't just feed without the spay/neuter part. So, folks quickly get overwhelmed with cats and then things get out of control. I really Hannah or Jackson Galaxy or another big name cat influencer would use their platform to talk about these issues with colony management.
OMG! A Tuesday video. And what a happy video!!! Mama and baby were found!!! As Hannah was presenting the scenario, it was so helpful to see everything that was taken into consideration on the best way to help the entire family. Mama Thali is so beautiful and she has four beautiful babies. A happy ending and the power of full circle. ❤
what a ride, althought the end of the story was spoiled because of the title I was on the edge of my seat. Glad to know that they are all safe now. Please make a follow up video showing them being reintroduced.
In the summer I had a feral mama with 2 kittens. The kittens (~5 weeks old) were not doing well, they were sick, so I made the decision that their best interest was to split them from mama who could clearly not feed them. Mama is extremely feral and kept taking the babies away so it was hard to monitor them. Mama TNRed, the babies were bottle fed. Sadly one of the kittens didn’t make it but the other thrived as well as mama in her community.
Bless ur ❤ and the Good Samaritan! 👏🏼 Last week a friend of mine called the NYCACC, Linden Blvd, Brooklyn, NY to plz come pick up a feral paralyzed senior cat from her backyard. They said that they wud, but never did. So I called and left several messages as sis my friend and a neighbor. Took 3 days for someone to come pick up that poor cat!
Thank you so much for your amazing knowledge and kindness. It has taught me so much, and as a cat volunteer in a shelter in Torrevieja, Alicante Spain, it has been so extremely wonderful and helpful. Come kitten season your videos are a beacon of light!
You do an amazing job caring for the unwanted kitties. However I wish you weren't needed if you catch my drift. If people looked after their cars and got them fixed there wouldn't be any kitties struggling to survive. But until then I am grateful for all your hard work Hannah. ❤️

OMG the fourth baby is so precious 😻
ikr!!
So precious. She could barely stay awake she was so happy with momma. 😎🇺🇸🇬🇧
Funny how momma kept the kitten that looked the most like her😜
Interesting that the new bebe's eyes are open more than the bottle babies. Looking forward to the reunion, if mama remembers her babies by then.
Maybe because the 4th baby was outside for 16 days & had to open her eyes asap for safety reasons. 😎🇺🇸🇬🇧
It can be that Momma is grooming the baby she had around the face which can encourage the eyes to open faster.
Yes, that is very interesting... Cool to see the difference and I wonder if that kitten will be more outgoing or have a different 'personality'.
Thank you for explaining to masses what the full cycle is. Not everyone is taking into account, that finding mother cat and the rest of the kittens is so important.

Beautiful video .
Bless ur ❤ and the Good Samaritan! 👏🏼
Last week a friend of mine called the NYCACC, Linden Blvd, Brooklyn, NY to plz come pick up a feral paralyzed senior cat from her backyard. They said that they wud, but never did. So I called and left several messages as sis my friend and a neighbor. Took 3 days for someone to come pick up that poor cat!
I agree 1,000% with your decisions in this case! Thank you for having the full circle program!
