I kinda hit the jackpot today
Finishing up cleaning the front half of the stray jail when I spotted some blood on the towel of a cat who was in a feral box. Now I didn't panic, because we've been having a lot of upper respiratory infections recently, and some of the cats can sneeze bloody stuff. I was a little more worried about one tearing themselves up trying to get out, but in either case, I didn't see any blood on the walls of the kennel. So I lifted the feral box out and looked inside, and what did my surprised eyes see but a mama with some brand-new babies--three at least (that's all she would let me see before she got very hissy with me!) and so new they were still wet! I went and got Natalie, the jail boss, and we got her and her offspring moved to the nursery which is much quieter. Medical, who'd processed her just a day or two ago, commented, "We didn't think she was THAT pregnant!" She'll be allowed to rest for a day before the babies are taken to be weighed and gendered she is checked, and then they'll be moved to foster care ASAP.
