Sunday night I saw 4 kittens in the parking lot of my apartment complex. I would say that they are about 7 or 8 weeks old. I gave them some food, which they devoured happily. Last night I also fed them and got close enough to almost grab one, but I didn't because I knew I wouldn't be quick enough and I didn't want them to be afraid of me.
I've been on the phone all day trying to find a rescue group to help me, but they all are at their capacity. I called the no-kill shelters, got the same response. I called Animal Control and the officer told me my heart was in the right place, but he's been checking everywhere to place 5 5 week old kittens he found and he's had no luck. (He told me that he's too much of a softie and they're coming home with him tonight)
I have no idea what to do. Even if by some chance I can trap them, what will I do with them? I have 3 cats at my apartment already. My lease says I can have cats, but I think 7 is pushing it to far. There just isn't any room. I really wish I was home and not away at school, because I would have fostered them in a heartbeat.
Is anyone else in the New Haven, CT area know of any more rescues?
I've tried all the ones listed on petfinder.
