Hi I am new to this board, and I have been reading some posts in hopes that I can do something for these new kits in my yard. Over the weekend I found that the cat that had been sneaking around my backyard had kittens. They looked to be about 4 weeks or so. I started to feed them all, but I have not seen the kittens in a few days, and I am worried. I have two dogs and I have put a barrier around the shed that she can get in and out of, but keeps the dogs away. Still I am concerned she moved the kittens and I will not be able to grab them. The road I live on is fairly busy, so I really want to be able to catch the entire familiy, get them to a vet, and hopefully find them homes.
Anyhow, should i try to get a trap and get the mom, even though I am not sure where the kittens are? Or should I wait and see if they show their little faces again?
(also.. a related concern. I smell cat spray outside my house.. how quickly can females go into heat after having a litter. It seems a bit soon but...)
