To donate for Stella and her babies:
MAY 8, 2020: Stella had to have an emergency c-section after she started bleeding without having contractions. Thanks to the amazing team at Mountain View Veterinary Hospital, she gave birth to five beautiful kittens. Sadly, two were stillborn and we were unable to revive them. Three survived and we are doing everything we can to give them the best possible chance to thrive. Stella is recovering very well, and her uterus has finally been retired. Kittens are named: Twinkle (torbie girl), Thomas (ginger tuxie boy), Nash (ginger boy), Dorado (ginger boy, stillborn), Corvus (ginger boy with kinked tail, stillborn).
Please note: Stella is a rescued feral cat, and her environment, the way we interact with her, etc. are all tailored to minimize stress and maximize comfort whilst in captivity. If you have questions about why things are the way they are, please ask! There’s a reason for everything, and we have very good success using these techniques. 🙂
Each feral cat is different, and our job is to balance learning where their boundaries are, knowing when and how far to push boundaries to allow growth, and respecting boundaries enough to establish trust. In Stella’s case, we want to push her as much as possible before kittens are born to make it less stressful for her if she happens to need intervention during labor, and when we need to access kittens to weigh them and make sure they are healthy. The more we can learn and connect with her now, the easier this will be for her. Read on, for the rest of her incredible story!
APR 19 2020: Feral catermelon Stella has finally been trapped! At five years old, this is likely to be her 15th litter of kittens. Thankfully, it will also be her last. She and her kittens will be spayed so they can all live happy, healthy lives. Her kittens will be adopted into loving homes, and we will let Stella tell us whether she is ready for life with humans or whether she would be happiest returning to her feral forest family in our managed Happy Forest colony.
