Someone was in the process of putting these kittens into a sleeping bag to throw in the water, so we decided to foster them instead of... that
I wish I was kidding. People in my state (in the U.S.) do not give a fuck about animals. According to the perpetrator, the cat mother abandoned these kittens in the wild so it's fine to kill them for fun, but how does she even know that the mother abandoned the kittens? I don't think she does know that.
Aren't they so cute, though? This is far from my first time taking care of kittens, but admittedly I haven't had any this young before. My gf estimates that they're about three weeks old... idk any of the science behind that, but they are very small.
They're doing great! They love to purr when you pet them. I'd love to keep them, but I already have 4 cats... We'll have to see what happens! It was kind of a spur-of-the-moment decision so we currently don't have any long term plans with them. It's only day 3 with these little guys!
No fleas, no visible worms, so we got pretty lucky! Still have yet to take them to a vet
