My husband works with a young guy who lives with his parents on a farm.
These people have barn cats, who they basically care very little about. Well
Cassandra,
Whew! That is a dilemma!
But, as you already stated, that if you do take Mom kits, they
definitely will have a much better chance at life - having a home, being
loved..
They definitely won't have any of that at farm.

Hi Cassandra,
I can answer some of these questions, since my group specializes in
neonatal kittens.
This is a really good handout I give to all our volunteers:

It depends on how old they are how often you need to feed them. If

Hi Cassandra,
I can tell you by my recent experience with farm cats
that sometimes the momma is so thankful to be taken
care of and loved that the stress goes away quicker
than we think it will. I rescued 6 kittens and a
momma from a farm that sounds as bad as the one you
are describing...except
I would also add that if, God forbid, something bad does happen, at
least they would go to the Bridge knowing they were loved and not as
the result of a dog attack, which counts for something. Although I
could totally understand if you weren't emotionally up for that yet.

I'm so sorry about the little guy. You sound like
you're beside yourself. It's NOT your fault. You had
the best of intentions. The lady should have taken

what happened. Does this woman have a cruel streak or
am I just reading that

It does indeed sound like you have a situation, but
never fear, time will tell the answer whether you're
ready or not. lol. I honestly don't know what to
tell you. Only you can know if it's too much to take
on right now. If you do take the kitties in, it won't
be long before
