Now what? Found 6 little little baby kittens

[Birdsong 82]

Last night coming home I saw lots of sets of eyes running down my road. 6 little bitty kittens. They are off spring from my neighbors cats who refuses to take time or money to get his pets neutered or spayed and says offspring isn't his problem and isn't wasting money feeding cats ' he didn't ask for( is words not mine)
We set a box and blankets for last night and when we gave them food the began batting each other for it. Runt got it good. My daughters fixing him up ..but they were that hungry. I don't know age what the can eat so young or where to go. Kittens outside here are as good as dead. I can't bring them with my current dogs and cats and shelter doesn't take stray cays anymore

See if you have a local animal rescue. Advertise them on social media or put up posters (or both). Call around to see if there is another nearby rescue, shelter or Humane Society that will take them. Build a shelter for them, get them fixed and have outdoor cats.

Contact a shelter and they will provide all medical care then adopt them out. So sweet..

Cats don't survive nights out here easily ..meither animal shelters will take stray cats any more. The county is overrun with them. 5 rooms full and added a trailer when that filled they won't take them . My cats aren't fond of this ..i don't mind caring for them short term but I don't know they're age and what they need to be eating. In the middle of moving too and can't afford to take them all to the vet. My neighbor is famous for this. I took his dog to the vet once without him knowing because it was sick and he refused

I wish it worked like that here but our small county grew and so did the feral cat amount. All the shelters are filled. I never knew I could get to a point where the won't take any because they are out of room. Crazy. They are super people friendly and so cute. But can't afford 6 more?

About 5 to 6 weeks old. Feed them dry kitten food..

Maybe six or seven weeks old? They are very cute, and socialized, and do need homes!
Call your area veterinarian's today, and ask if anyone will take them. Our vet does here sometimes, and finds them homes. Look up rescue groups, as on Petfinders.
Post cute pictures at every vet clinic, pet store, etc.
Good for you for taking them in!!!
Kitten food, the dry is less expensive, and you can moisten it with warm water for them.

Ok. I'll pick some up on the way home. My cays are older so there food is bigger pieces so I gave them wet food this morning. They were STARVING. Poor things. I don't mind caring for them till they find a home. Temps are going below freezing at night so I can put them in my huge dog kennel inside at night. Wasn't sure what they needed so young. My cats were rescuses over 6 months and that was along time ago. Never had one so young. Dad no leaving them outside tonight to be a coyote or racoon or bobcat diner

About 5 to 6 weeks old. Feed them dry kitten food..
