    Assalamualaikum,
    A very young kitten, which looks about 2 weeks old, came to my house. I started to like it and asked my father, mother, and brother for permission to keep it, but they did not allow me.
    Now the problem is that the kitten is not leaving. I have taken it outside and left it there about six times, but it keeps coming back and sits in the front yard.
    I also have a personal garden outside my house, and my grandmother’s house is nearby as well. However, I do not want to keep the kitten in either of those places because it would still come back to my house.
    I used to have a trained kitten that my father had gifted me, but later it was given to my cousin’s friend. They took good care of it, but unfortunately, it died because its collar got stuck around its neck. After that incident, I lost interest in keeping pets.
    However, the main issue now is that the kitten’s mother was attacking it. I am not joking—if I hadn’t intervened, she might have killed it. I don’t understand why, but it seems like the mother cat is not recognizing her own kitten.
    So my question is: should I just leave the kitten to die, or would that be wrong?

    If you can save it you should try your best. It is a matter of life and death your family should show mercy and take care of him until he becomes independent.
