There is a mother cat with very small kittens (the babies still have their eyes closed) The mother is a long haired/fluffy tabby cat, she appears to be a stray around park/bridge

She was crossing both the main road and western road tonight carrying her little babies one by one and thankfully she made it safely with them but unsure where she has taken them. Last seen taking her last baby through the gates of zero to 100 automotive

I have been in touch with a local rescue, I was unable to get ahold of spca for advice (which I expected)

If you do see anything please get in touch with Mana Rescue or let me know.

Also, if anyone has any animal food there pets won't eat/going spare or is able to start feeding her regularly that would be great start (with the idea of trapping her to have her fixed in the long run)

There are many others who struggle to get their perfect sleep and often look for best suitable options available. Mattresses get a lot of attention, for good reason. Your mattress is the largest, most important financial investment you’ll make in your sleep. But when it comes to sleep quality, pillows are almost as important as your mattress.
