My friend is looking to obtain some cat and kitten for her farm and asked if I know of anyone who was any cats that would work for her.
I mentioned that my neighbors daughter has been (unfortunately) accumulating a fair amount of cats and that some had kittens.
We stopped there today but only my neighbor's son was around and he said there were now 18 cats and another one was pregnant. Yes, she was not getting any of these cats spayed/neutered. My neighbor wants to have as many new homes found for these cats as her daughter has been spending more time with her boyfriend and isn't around too much, but her daughter doesn't want to have new homes found for the cats.
We tried catching one of the kittens without much success as they aren't getting alot of human contact. Her son said if you shake the food bag they will come however.
So on Wed or Thursday we (my neighbor and I) will be trying to catch at least half of these cats for relocating. Will we need a carrier for each cat?? I'm thinking we could get two kittens in one carrier. We have 5 carriers available. I would think we should try to get the pregnant cat so after she has her litter she could get spayed.
What methods would work best some of these cats are kind of tame-should we try to relocate these cats??
I was afraid this situation was going to happen after I found out my neighbor's daughter had like 8 or 9 un-fixed cats last year.
Any info would be great.
