We adopted 5 kittens from a neighbor when the mom was hit by a car. They were feral cats. We had them in a mudroom type thing secluded from the rest of the house until they were large enough to go outside. I've since moved them to the barn with our birds. We had 5. We are down to 3. While we did interact with the kittens it was only once a day to feed, water and clean the litter box. It appears that was enough to cause issues. When it's warm they come to the house and sit at the doors meowing their heads off. We can't let them inside. My husband is allergic and we have dogs that will kill them. In fact, that's how we lost one last night. I let the dogs out and lo and behold a cat was sitting on the dog bed. Instant death. The other death was a cat I ran over. I just... I don't know what to do to prevent that. Another one almost got hit today by my husband. We drive very slow because we know they are running under our cars but we can't just not drive to prevent this and that's where we are now. We bang on the cars to get them out. I take them back to the barn every time they come to the house. We would like to keep them for pest control. We have tons of pests. Oh I am feeding them in the barn and I moved their bedding there. I'm just at a loss.
