Cat and kittens

[buzzcutt2]

FACK!!!! I just found some freeloaders camping out in my garage...a momma cat with her kittens.

Does anyone have a good recipe?

Take them to a shelter if you don't want them, kittens are always adopted quickly....

and no kittens do not taste like chicken...

the cat herself may not be so lucky

Maybe a chew-toy for my dogs.

yup - animal control will most likely adopt the kittens out (if they have space) and euthanize the mother. If they don't have space, none of them will make it to adoption.

I'd check around in your area - sometimes even a family pet will look for a "hidden" space to give birth. However, if it's a "family pet" she should have been spayed to begin with.

My recomendations: see if she's "socialized" and let you get close. If so, get her and the kittens use to be touched and handled.

Contact a (no kill) rescue organization now (not your local humane society) and tell them your situation - be patient, somtimes it takes a while to find a foster home.

If not - have fun as a pet owner!

Sure just lay out some food n water. Cats are pretty independent, just let em eat n crap n sleep. Just make sure you check your tires(if you park IN your garage) and don't run em over.

I found a mother and 2 kittens, posted it on craigslist and within 10 min got a response from nice lady that kept all of them. To the best of my ability i questioned her enough to feel fairly confident she wasn't going to eat them.

I'm hoping to pawn them off on a friend...she is all into cat rescue, I'm watching their dogs while they are on their honeymoon cruise - I'll just slip them into the bag of dog food and they will never know.
