APR 29, 2024: Feral mama Berkeley gave birth for the last time, to four beautiful kittens! Mom and babies are doing great so far - yay! Scroll down for weight chart.
APR 21 2024: Feral mama-to-be Berkeley has eluded us for more than a year! We were FINALLY able to trap her using our remote-triggering robo-trap. She's pregnant, and will give birth for the last time in our care. Because she is feral, we will take a very specific approach to her pregnancy, labor, and raising her final litter of kittens in order to minimize her stress and maximize her + kittens well-being. If you see something that doesn't make sense, please ask our mods why we're doing it!
Weight chart: bit.ly/4bbt4MQ
We livestream our rescued cats, 24 hours a day, uncensored, to raise awareness about the realities of cat overpopulation in a way that inspires compassion. Watching Berkeley give birth for the last time is a great way for parents and kids to experience the “miracle of birth” without letting their own pets give birth and further contributing to overpopulation.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who uses back scratchers for long distance treating, but I have the wooden ones from Dollar Tree. We have one feral who surprised us with 4 kittens about 3 weeks ago. She will not get up and eat or drink when anyone is moving within her sight. Trying to figure out what Shelly might do, I started using the fingers and putting dry kitten food underneath her jaw. She now lets me put a mush of stuff near her so all she has to do is lift her head to eat. Her feral card probably won't be shredded but she may become a working cat or go up to a nearby colony. I'm the only one who can scratch her head when she is full, but she doesn't mind anyone handling the kittens. Thank you, Tiny Kittens HQ for ideas to use here in the Deep South of Georgia.

I love how Berkeley is such a beautiful "Frankenkitty" - the paws like a tuxedo, the upper area of a ginger, the face of a calico/tortie mix, & almost a siamese colored body. She's adorable, & I hope she decides that humans aren't so bad & chooses inside life. Free Churros when you're inside Berkeley!

Don't fight and bite the plastic hand that feeds and scritches you Berkeley! No mama outsmarts Shelly for long, fastest kitten snatcher in Canada! Eventually she will get used to it as they always come back unharmed. In a few weeks she will be delighted to have some "me" time away from them. Fat healthy looking babies!

What a difference from the 1st try! You've definetly have the feral kitty touch! Hopefully she can come to terms with people and find a loving home. She is so beautiful. And if not, she can be returned to where she came and still be looked after.

She's getting used to the idea at least. Mama kitty is less threatened when the fake hand is closer to the blanket I noticed, and she is slowly warming up to the pets, but will probably need a little more time before she doesn't mind. You are such an amazing person who takes care of mamas and babies, but also slowly helps these feral kitties realize not all humans will hurt them. Literally, you are an angel. ❤️

When my son was about 1yrold, he would start to fall asleep in his car seat, with his head sort of drooping forward. But then he would jerk sorta halfway awake, and work his pacifier extra-hard like, "I will not fall asleep!" He made a funny noise when he did this and it sounded just like Miss Berkley when she growls and eats at the same time, lol. He's about to turn 32 this summer, and he's a vet tech. Of course I sent him a link to this video! LOL
