And what they didn't mention is that pregnant cats or dogs or momma's with babies less than 5 weeks old are usually euthanized. Most shelters don't have room to keep them until the babies are old enough. So if you come across a stray that fits that catagory, see if you can find some one to keep them until the babies are old enough.
