5 adults and 15 kittens. We bailed 3 adults and 6 kittens from AVS on February 2016 and one of them was Macaron. We managed to trapped 2 heavily pregnant cats before both were sent to AVS and both gave birth to 9 kittens which makes a total of 20 rescues all at the same time.
It was my toughest time. Since then, everything seems easy. Macaron was the last adult who passed on. Out of 15 kittens, only 4 adopted, 7 didn’t make it and 4 with us.
So this is their destiny. All were not even 6 years of age.
What have we provided them? A home, friends, food, water and medical care. All of them were so fearful that they did not allow us to come near them. They kept running away. But we love them!
During this period of time, they weren’t as fearful as they were on the street. They were carefree. They do not have to kill or steal for food. They were not threatened by those who dislike them. They do not have to hide everywhere to be away from humans. They were not invested by fleas, ticks or even maggots. They were not abused by others. They were safe from vehicles, the sun and rain. These were the little things we gave them and yet I still feel I have not given enough. That’s the unsatisfactory of a caregiver.
The more painful I feel, the more I want to perfect the Dharma and stay on to help.
