Sissy and her kittens were returned to our neighbor this morning. I'm not sure they're happy about it but the responsibility lies with them. We took care of their cat and fed her all winter. We even kept her kittens for a month in hopes of finding homes for them, however after two vicious attacks on our other inside cats, Sissy and the kittens were moved outside on the porch.
With all the other cats around here and the strays that show up at night, I wasn't comfortable leaving them out there either. So after going through every possible scenario, we had no alternative but to send them home to the neighbor where they belong. We're sure they will return in time to eat like the rest of their cats do, so when that day comes, a call to the animal shelter will be made. I did learn that the animal control officer takes them to a shelter for adoption and that the killing pound had been shut down. So for that, I can now sleep at night knowing good homes will be found if need be.
