    The cats are in grave danger. Normal kids do not poke at cats and kittens with a stick. Is there anyway your mom will let the cats in a secluded area of the house? If not, can you contact a feral rescue organization, or a no-kill shelter in your area and have them picked up and perhaps they can be adopted into safer homes?

    if you cannot bring these kittens and their mom inside then you MUST get them out of there. This brat is going to kill these kittens and if he doesn't they are going to suffer damage from the abuse they are taking from this kid. This is no life for these cats...NONE AT ALL.

    I know you want to keep mom and her kittens but by letting them be constantly subjected to this abuse cause you don't want to give them up is very selfish.

    And never ever be afraid to speak up when you see something like this - this is animal abuse and is extremely illegal. You might be a kid but you have as much right to stand up as anyone else does. Hell don't even stand up call the police and report animal abuse and don't give your name.

    But do something

    I want to share a story with you

    last year my daughter in law found a kitten in a dumpster. The kitten was about 6 weeks old and had dirt-filled ears and flea covered fur. She was a mess. My daughter in law took the kitten home and cleaned her all up. She had a Bengal look about her - gorgeous little kitten. But she couldn't keep her.

    My other son's girlfriend (15 years old) had been wanting a kitten/cat for awhile. Her mom died 2 years ago and her father kept telling her that she could get a kitten when he felt the time was right. I called him and asked him if Sarah could have this kitten and he said yes. I took the kitten to them and they named her Allie cause she was found in a dumpster in an alley. Sarah adored this kitten. Allie slept with Sarah every night and would cry when Sarah was gone.

    Sarah lives on a very busy road in town and she wanted to keep her kitten inside. We also have a lot of wildlife around here. Her father would get mad at the kitten for doing kitten stuff and threaten to put Allie outside. Sarah would hide the kitten in her bedroom. One time Sarah's older brother threw Allie down the stairs and Sarah was lucky enough to be able to catch her. At this point Allie was only about 12 weeks old and still very small.

    This went on for a few weeks and her father started to get a bit more physical with the kitten and one day was putting stuff in his car and left the door open - I think with hopes the kitten would go outside.

    Sarah called me crying and asked me to please take Allie to the shelter where she would be safe (shelter is no-kill). Ironically the shelter called me the same morning to ask me to foster a mom cat and her five 2-week old kittens - so we traded. Allie to the shelter (where she ws quickly adopted) and the famiy to my house.

    Sarah was so sad about giving up Allie and has vowed to never have another cat as long as she lives at home cause of the abuse Allie received. But Sarah was brave. She was willing to give Allie up to protect her from harm. She adored that kitten and I felt so heartbroken about taking her - but I had told Sarah many times that I wasn't going to stand by and let that kitten be abused...but Sarah had to be the one to make the decision to save Allie's life.

    We never told her father what happened. We let him believe that Allie got outside and was killed - he didn't deserve to know anymore than that.

    You must be brave also and make sure this little cat family is protected even if it means having your heartbroken. At least you'll know they are safe

    if this kid can beat a cat and kittens with a stick he isn't going to care who the cats belong to....that is going to mean nothing to a brat who thinks beating animals is acceptable

    Me and my dad were talking.(my dad is a big cat lover)
    And he said if this happens again he is going to do something about it.
    Because when I told him what the kid did he ran outside angrily but the kid and his family left somewhere.And when he says he is going to do something about it he means it :!:

    i hope all works out for you and your kitties...it's awful to hear that they are in the area of people who would behave that way....
    i know how it feels to be in that position....when i took in my latest little girl, Lydia, she had been to a family for a month prior to coming to my home.

    the home had three hellacious (SP?) little girls that didn't know what NO meant. i know Lydia was mistreated (put lightly) b/c she was not the cat i had met the first time. her body language screamed "leave me alone, don't touch me it hurts"...i was furious at the parents and the little girls. the first night they brought her home she ran and hid in the crawl space in their house. she was obviously terrified and unhappy...they left her there and went about their business and their plans to leave the house for a day. when i had heard that i cried and had a knot in my throat for weeks b/c i was supposed to have her but got home to late to get her. they decided that she was to "mean" to the children and gave her to me. i am in the process of mending her. those people didn't deserve her.

    the grandmother had the nerve to ask matt and i if they girls could visit. i told her that i don't think that would be in Lydia's best interest.

    please don't be frightened to tell them not to hurt or touch them. i hope your dad can help you take care of things. best wishes

    Blakie had hidden her kittens.(I think)
    This morning I could not find them anywhere.
    I just found Blakie in a attaking possion at my neighboors porch.
    Oh I hope she does not attack the kid again because he can beat her up if she does like yesterday he punched her for jumping on him to protect her babies.And last night I did not sleep but spy on what the neighboors were doing and I heard them saying "these kittens r cute when little but when they grow up they r going to be as vishos and ugly as their mother is.I wanted to yell something out the window at them but the saying got stuck in my throut.And right now Blakie is continuesly meowing(I can hear her through my window)for some reason.If I find the kittens today I am definetly taking them in.

    do you suppose the neighbors have taken the kittens and that's why Blackie is hanging around their door?

    Please get them inside....I couldn't stop thinking about that poor little kitty family last night

    My other friend said that she might be able to adopt one to but she will tell me tommorow.
