Sigh.
Had a call from my ex neighbour (Jamesons ex owner) saying she thinks one of her new kittens is pregnant. She 'happened' to have a male cat for a short while (errr) but she reckons that her female kitten 'escaped' and came back pregnant. She says the kitten is 6 months, but I think she is younger. (reason for it, when she first got the pair of kittens they were SO tiny, and since I have seen two 8 week old kittens at Croydon CP that were way bigger, these things would fit in my hand) Her vet (PDSA) won't do a pregnancy test for some reason. I know that she planned to get the cat pregnant so she can sell the kittens. We're not even neighbours anymore so I wish she would stop calling me about these things, I don't want to know! She gave the male kitten to her friend, which - to confuse things- is our new neighbour (he moved into her old flat next to ours). She told me to keep an eye out for the kitten incase the new neighbour lets him out. I said if I see the kitten I will not just tell her, but actually take the kitten and bring him somewhere safe.
I told her that it would be terrible if the kitten is pregnant and all that, but the way she talks/deals with things is by agreeing. So it's impossible to know whether she understands what I say or just agrees to shut me up. When I start to go on about things, she sometimes gets pee'd off with me and won't listen therefore. She is the same person I had to take the dog off, and now she is advertising on the Tree site wanting to rehome another dog. She is a serial animal-life buyer/seller! In the time I've known her she has had 4 cats, 7 dogs, 2 rabbits and 3 guinea pigs (one of which her daughter 'accidentally' killed so me and R buried it in their garden in an attempt to show/teach the kid about life & death as the previous guinea pigs had just been chucked in the bin!). Now she wants to start fostering cats & dogs from a rescue, and reckons she is starting an RCPSA course because 'I love me animals init'
How long is a cat pregnant for, and can cats have an abortion? Otherwise this one will be another young cat with a litter of kittens that will end up on the Tree site!
Surely there should be a law against this?
