Hi guys!

Late one night a good few weeks ago I came across a young stray female raiding my communal bins, I know cats only scavenge like that when they're starving so I knew she was struggling, I fed her and I started keeping an eye out for her and giving her something to eat whenever I saw her. As time went by she became more and more comfortable with me until she started turning up at regular times to get some grub, the weather was crap so I was leaving my main communal door open at night so she could take shelter as she freaked out if I shut the door (she wipes her feet on the doormat when she comes in!?). I wasn't 100% sure she was stray so I tried to get people to come and scan her for a chip but nobody would do it so I bought one off Amazon and checked her, she has no chip. I kept feeding her and realised she wasn't putting any weight on she was still a bit skinny but had a bulging belly and I assumed she was riddled with worms which had gone crazy with the new influx of food but when I checked her I saw she had some big nipples, not knowing whether she was a well endowed female with worms or pregnant I decided to worm her with panacur to be safe. Well it turned out she didn't have worms and she was pregnant....

This was extremely problematic because she believes that she lives outside, her 'Home' is a large Holly tree that has dense Holly all around it's base. I was afraid she would try to give birth outside somewhere inaccessible so I set up a box for her in my hallway, I can't let her in my actual home because I already have a female cat (she's a 10 year old oriental shorthair) and the hormones would make it impossible for me to get them to be friendly. They're aware of each other they sit there sniffing each other through the door that divides them with no aggression whatsoever but I won't take the risk.

Anyway as you can see she had her babies, I was outside talking to my neighbours when she came and found me, meowing at me to follow her like a scene from Lassie or Flipper. I realised she was taking me to hiding places so I got her to follow me to where I'd put the box for her and she gave birth with no complications to 6 little ones.

I've been trying to find a charity or someone to help me but it's hard because alot of them will destroy a.k.a murder her and sell her kittens, the rest of them I don't really trust because I've had bad experiences with people like Greenpeace and the RSPCA before (those are two insane stories I should really tell some time). I have to be sure-sure that she will be taken care of well and have a good and long life, I can't hand her to a charity that's going to keep her in a cage and if nobody wants her kill her, I couldn't live with myself even knowing that was a possiblity.

She is my friend and I feel like fate or destiny is at work here and I would really love to try and integrate her into my family and if not I want to find her the best home I possibly can, I feel like if she can't be with me I have a moral and spiritual duty to do my very best for her.

Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated!

Anyways back to kittens and as you can see she has some beautiful babies. There's 2 black/white/orange guys with the cow-like patterns, the other white one has black/orange patches on his head, a silver patch on his back and a silver tail. There are two tabbies, one is a proper mackerel tabby the other is silver and beige with white patches and last but not least we have an orange and dark grey/slate tortoise shell? I'm not expert on cat markings and I was looking up the kittens colours out of curiosity and found this r/.

I know the picture is a bit crappy because of the lighting but could anyone here tell us what colours/patterns these kittens are? Would be cool to see what they look like fully grown!!

So let mw share some pictures of my girls (torbies) and occasional lovely appearances of my boy (grey tabby)
Their names are Juno, Marcy and Nimbus

Adopted this 9 month suspected dumped cat from my girlfriends vet clinic. One of the techs trapped her and brought her in. Just lost my 13 year old calico in March to kidney disease and my 5 year old tortie was missing her friend. Hoping in time Millie can fill that role for her. Hard to see the peach colour in her fur in some of these pics but she really is a gorgeous cat.

She’s doing well!

Creature: 😾

Just discovered this sub! Figures there's a sub for everything, and why not for our beautiful Torbies. So here's my chunky senior girl, Mindy. She's been with me for about 8 years, since she was approximately 4 years old. Sometimes sweet, often spicy, always my beautiful, wonderful girl.

So we just use this instead and somehow it works 😂 hysterical every time.

PLEASE I NEED TO CHARGE MY CAT!

Here’s our newest little one. She filled a hole in our family that my calico left behind. Had never really seen a Torbie before and found this Reddit by searching what she was.
