APR 23, 2021: Despite our best efforts, Kiwi's baby Takahe was not able to survive. Kiwi has been feeling much better in the last 18 hours, and is becoming better able to care for her remaining six kittens. All six kittens seem to be gaining weight and doing well.

APR 2021, 2021: Feral mama Kiwi was in labor for SIXTEEN hours. It was very difficult, and lifesaving intervention was required for four of the seven kittens.

DEC 9, 2020: This room is for our adorable feral cats who need more recovery/treatment time than usual for TNR. Our goal is not to socialize and adopt these guys (because that's not what THEY want at this time), but to get them healthy so they can return to the home they love, in the wild, where they can live their lives on their terms.

MAY 21, 2020: Pregnant feral catermelon Sahara joined Stella today in the Feral Maternity Ward. Sahara is from Nano and Grandpa Mason's feral colony, which is adjacent to the Happy Forest.

MAY 8, 2020: Stella had to have an emergency csection after she started bleeding without having contractions. Thanks to the amazing team at Mountain View Veterinary Hospital, she gave birth to five beautiful kittens. Sadly, two were stillborn and we were unable to revive them. Three survived and we are doing everything we can to give them the best possible chance to thrive. Stella is recovering very well, and her uterus has finally been retired. Kittens are named: Twinkle (torbie girl), Thomas (ginger tuxie boy), Nash (ginger boy), Dorado (ginger boy, stillborn), Corvus (ginger boy with kinked tail, stillborn).

Please note: Stella is a rescued feral cat, and her environment, the way we interact with her, etc. are all tailored to minimize stress and maximize comfort whilst in captivity. If you have questions about why things are the way they are, please ask! There's a reason for everything, and we have very good success using these techniques. :)

Each feral cat is different, and our job is to balance learning where their boundaries are, knowing when and how far to push boundaries to allow growth, and respecting boundaries enough to establish trust. In Stella's case, we want to push her as much as possible before kittens are born to make it less stressful for her if she happens to need intervention during labor, and when we need to access kittens to weigh them and make sure they are healthy. The more we can learn and connect with her now, the easier this will be for her. Read on, for the rest of her incredible story!
