There's a cat family who lives behind my apartment complex. I caught the Mama cat because she was guarding the kitten, who hissed and ran off like a bat out of hell. The kitten is probably 8-10 weeks old and IMPOSSIBLE thus far to catch. I am not sure what to do-- if I should take the mama in to the shelter so she can be spayed and hopefully put up for adoption to avoid more kitten-- or let her go and be out to protect her kitten.... There is the father cat out there too, also impossible thus far to catch.
Advice?
