Hi everyone!
I am new to this forum and I am excited to be here! I have just recently been introduce to feral cats. I have a Momma kitty and 2 babies. I am figuring the babies are 5 mos old now and Momma doesnt look to be much over a year and a half. I have been feeding them now for about 3 mos. Momma kitty has only let me pet her twice (while she was eating) and one baby (Moley) has let me touch him/her only once...the other (scarey - short for scardy cat) has never let me touch him/her. I am unable to see for sure what their sex is but from what I have seen from behind they appear to be females (still uncertain thought). Momma kitty has come into the house before when she has heard me opening a can of cat food. The babies have come in and have sat on my desk in my downstairs office (that is where I fed them). I have unfortunately (
a husband that is allergic to cats so the question of them coming in is out of the question ( I keep trying though
). I am going to make them a winter shelter to keep them warm - but I am unable to find a free TNR here is south jersey. I would like Momma kitty to get fixed as well as the babies......any advice? Thanks in advance

Welcome to the site. Don't know much about South Jersey, but from what I've garnered, research the internet to see if there is somewhere or someone close who can help. I've also heard that crying and begging sometimes helps also.

There are a lot of great people here who will have some even better help/advice.
