CATZILLA: Mocha and Her Kittens From Four Litters Before Spayed

 

Mocha and Her Kittens
From Four Litters Before Spayed

Mocha is our outdoor calico cat. She does not like being inside the house. Her story goes like this... she was born on March 30, 2020 past 11:00 PM. She had two other siblings -- Jerry (ginger) who was born first, then Mocha (calico), then Kofi last (torby). Their mother is a ginger cat named Fiona, whom I have last seen around early 2021.

Mocha's first litter was from 19 March 2021. Her only surviving kitten is my buddy named Jay, a ginger and white bicolor cat.

A week later on March 26th, I found a newborn calico kitten I named Mel, crawling on a busy road. 

Mocha's second litter was around mid-2021, but none of them survived past the first week. Mocha's third litter was from early March 2022. There were five kittens. Four were rehomed, but one was left with us, Maribelle. Sadly, she died in August 20, 2022 due to virus introduced by a foster at the time.

Mocha's fourth and last litter were two kittens Angela (ginger) and Angelou (grey and white). The second was adopted, but Angela's adopter backed out. Sadly, Angela also died, 24 January 2023 due to pneumonia. 

Mocha was the only cat that gave us the most litter (and problems). The other female cats had litters once and usually just one or two surviving. She was spayed on 25 August 2022 and will not be having any more litter. No more worrying about rehoming kittens, no more problems about health for both kittens and mother (such as pyometra).
