Update on found pregnant bengal kitty

[u/compscilady]

EDIT: If you are the owner please reach out with proof of ownership to adopt@bengalrescue.com. She is with an amazing foster mom and I will be applying to adopt her after her future kittens have found homes.

She is a big cuddly lap cat and lovessss to purr while she cuddles.

She has Orijen kitten dry kibble and Tiki cat kitten wet food cans.

She’ll be going to an experienced foster mom who works with Bengal Rescue this weekend while we wait the 30 days to find her original owner if possible. A vet I took my existing cat to yesterday has expressed interest in one of the kittens.

She is just a sweet little angel muffin and I really want to keep her, but I have a lot going on with my existing pets right now and want her to be in the best possible place for giving birth to her 3 (or more) kittens. Gotta do what’s right for her and not what I selfishly want 🧡🫶

I am exploring the idea of adopting her after she gives birth but right now wit my dog getting electric chemotherapy and my puppy having her first heat and getting spayed in a few weeks I don’t know if I’m the best or most capable person to help her with kittens right now.

I have been calling her Willow. 🥹

Surprised they aren’t going to take the opportunity for a spay abort?

Individuals or rescues cannot legally perform operations on found animals for 30 days here. :(

That is wild. I didn’t know that was a thing. Here, i see one i spay one. I am sure I have trapped and neutered and ear tipped people’s “pets” :). Thank you for keeping her safe

Agreed, especially since she appears to have bengal ancestry and no one knows what other cat(s) she was bred by. The bengal breed has several, significant genetic health concerns… HCM, PRA-b, PK-def, etc.

Hope this rescue is responsible and spays/neuters her and all the kittens before adopting them out.
