Owls do care for their young. In most species, both the male and female will take care of the young. They will take turns, even. One will sit on the eggs while its mate brings it food. Once the eggs are hatched, they will continue to take turns in incubating the young, and catching food for their mate and their chicks.
Owl pellets are, in the simplest terms, owl vomit. Owls cannot chew, and so they have to swallow their prey whole. Indigestible bits like fur, feathers, bones, and teeth, wind up in a tightly-packed 'pellet' that is regurgitated onto the ground.
