While I was out on the porch smoking a cigarette, I saw a cat and some kittens in the back yard (where I saw the deer last night). I knew since the cat was wandering around with the kittens, they were probably homeless. I went right inside and called the police dispatcher to see if any animal control units were on tonight. There weren't. I asked what I could do. He said that if I could catch them and put them in a carrier, then he could send someone out to collect them and bring them to the humane society. I was getting my shoes on when my wife asked what I was going to do. I told her that I was going out to get the cat and kittens and like a mother being told by her 13 y.o. daughter that she's going to be out after midnight, drinking and using drugs, she told me, "NO! Absolutely not! No way are you going out there and possibly bringing back rabies or some other disease!"
I was going out to help some kittens and a cat.
