Murdered kitten

Last night, after feeding my cats and kittens, and watch over them when they litter, i brought all the kittens to my brother's bedroom. They run, they cuddle each other and play happily. then when it's about midnight, i want to go to my bedroom. usually, i will locked them in the basket since the cage is outside the house and I'm afraid they will feel cold. but last night, i didn't since they were sleeping on the floor together with their mothers. i close the door and take a 8 months male cat named Kuning to sleep with me and left the rest in the room since my mum is sleeping there too. and then i suddenly wake up because i thought it's already morning, i open the window of my bedroom so that Kuning can go outside if he wants to. then i continue to sleep. i woke up back when i heard cats fighting in my bedroom. i saw a tomcat is inside my room and i chased him out. suddenly, i felt the urge to check on my kittens. i was seriously in shock when i saw blood under my brother's bed. i screamed calling my mother to come. At that time i only saw 2 of my kitten lying in flood of blood. the blood was dried already. i looked around looking the other three. my mum has started crying while my heart was throbbing looking for them. first i only found one behind the door, then one on the treadmill and another one in the kitchen's cabinet. i felt so relieved. my mum asked me which has died. when i said Gapi and Capang my mum was wailing because Gapi is biggest and the 2nd cutest. my mum then lift the died kitten and put them in the plastic and i put the plastic inside the cage. i then washed the bloody room and put the rest of the kitten in my bedroom. they were in fact sleeping next to me as i wrote this.

when i googling about male cat kill kitten, i found that actually the male will smell the scent of the kitten, if the kitten is not his offspring, the cat will kill them to prevent the offspring of another male to be arisen. moreover, if the kitten is killed, the mother will have no kitten to take care of and thus the female will enter into heat phase and start mating. this will give chance to the male to mate the female and keep his line of gene. how does the male cat kill, they will bite the nape of neck of the kitten and violently shake them. this will break the neck bone of the kitten and as the result, the kitten die.

i really regretted that i didn't take the kitten which were suckling at that time from their mother and locked them up, or at least bring them to my room so that i can watch over them the whole night. i finally realized why cat give birth to several kittens at a time and can get pregnant up to 3 times per year. it is because their lifespan is actually short especially kitten and there is so much risks for them to grow where they may become prey of another male cat, they may become subjected to poisons, and may be infected with illnesses. Alas, they were dead already. if i can rewind the time, i will fix the situation, but i can't. just wait if i ever catch the evil tomcat, seriously i will beat him and throw him away from my house, may be at KT town.
