Did I Steal My Nephews Cat?
16 Answers
This needs a lot of back story, so here it is. Last year around march 2022 my sister had to move houses, she had (im just guessing) 10+ cats, she had so many that she accidently crushed a kittens head when she was closing the car door :( and only one, a cat she adopted from petsmart (or petco, i forget) was fixed. Juniper was one of the cats she had that was a "street cat", she's a beautiful calico cat with green eyes and she had been hanging around this house all of her life. Around 2019 when Juniper was 1 she dropped juniper off at my house and she was pregnant. My mom kept one of the kittens and once the kittens were 4-6 weeks she took Juniper and her kittens back to her house in town, Juniper was born in 2018 and she has had countless of litters throughout the years. In 2022 when she moved she left Juniper, some other cats, and around 8 or 10 kittens she only took one cat, a fluffy black tom cat. When she moved my uncle went to scout her house for some cats to take to my house, (I live on a pretty big farm lots of cows, chickens and 3 horses so I guess he thought he can just keep them in my barn instead of the streets). He found Juniper and the kittens and he took them to my house. The kittens bonded with the cat we kept from Junipers litter in 2019, she was a mother cat to. Juniper stayed on the side of my house for a while because the mother cat and her didn't get along, I brought her food, water and i played with her sometimes. (A few months ago in February I asked my sister to take the mother cat I mentioned before to a no kill shelter because she lives closer to it, I thought the cat might of been pregnant and she said she would.. She did not and shes letting her run around her house not fixed and I think something is wrong with her health because she had a misscarriage at my house and at my sisters house) After a while my uncle, my other sister and i took the kittens to the no kill shelter... Juniper had another litter at my house from some tom cat, i begged my mom to get her spayed or to keep her inside but she didn't listen because it would be a "waste of money" and that cats should be outside, she wanted to dump her off at her sisters house. After Juniper was done nursing, my mom took 3 of her kittens to my brothers house and we kept one, This was in December. Juniper got pregnant again by the same cat a little while after, this time I didn't care what my mom said I was keeping her inside until she got spayed, my nephew (the son of my sister who moved) wanted a kitten but I had a bad feeling because he wanted a fluffy girl kitten and he had the tom cat from his old house, I asked him if he would spay the kitten when she was older and he said "maybe", I didn't give him a kitten for this reason. Now the kittens are 9 weeks, my uncle took 3 of them to the no kill shelter i mentioned before (I kept 2) and Juniper got spayed, vaccinated and microchiped. I made a post on my tik tok saying my cat (Juniper) had to stay at the vet over night because she was getting spayed and that I missed her. My nephew then made a post saying that I stole his cat and I never let him see her and he needed advice (I didn't let him see her the last 2 weeks because I didn't want him to steal one of the kittens because when they were first born he said he wanted one (yes a new born kitten) to take care of and as i mentioned he said he wanted the fluffy girl one, they only come over twice a week because they live an hour away). People in the comments were saying to call the police, I'm sorry or I was selfish and that she is his cat even after I explained the situation in the comments, to be fair I probably explained it poorly because I was taken aback by the video and It was pretty late at night lol. Before he made this post he was commenting things like "Wow that kind of looks like my cat" or "Shes so pretty too bad shes mine" under posts of Juniper, I have 4 other cats, 1 from the kittens at his old house and he said nothing about them.

Like the two ladies who have also tried to answer your question I got lost.
In this country (UK) nobody really owns cats so it is probably your nephew messing with you.
Someone has to stop all the kittens being born. They have to get all of hem neutered, the kittens can start breeding at four months old. This is more important that who owns a cat.

Didn't read the story, I'm afraid, but if you're in the UK you don't really own a cat ( unless it's an expensive one, I guess) the cat owns you, it's servant. They have a tendency to move on when it suits them. One of ours moved next door over the winter as she was harrassd by one of the younger cats and she liked hext doors wood burner. We adopted a stray cat that, several years later, had come grom the 'back neighbour', they got a dog, the cat moved out.
All the humans in this story need to start behaving in a more responsible way toward the cats that they are squabbling over.
The adult cats (6 months +) need to be taken to a vet straight away to be neutered, to prevent the birth of any more kittens. They also need to be vaccinated and treated for parasites.
Only after that has been done, there will be time to consider who owns what.

I think the OP is in the States. She uses the term 'no kill shelter' which I've not heard here. I think it's common for some shelters in the States to euthanize cats and kittens when they have too many.
The OP was lucky she was able to convince her mother to get the one cat done.
Ringlet...neutering is done as early as 12 weeks now.
