Within the last year a stray kitten/young cat started hanging around our house. My husband and I decided to try and befriend the stray and we did. We gave it a name, chestnut, and starting feeding and watering it and since it started getting cold out we let it stay in our garage. We had no idea what sex it was and neither of us have ever owned cats.
We had no idea chestnut is a female or that she was pregnant but tonight we went to feed her and visit her as we do every night but now there is kittens!
Chestnut is very teratorial and came to us and let us pet her but when we tried to approach the kittens she hissed and refused so we allowed her to have her space.
From the looks of it there are 4 kittens and they all seem to be moving around.
My question is, what do I do?
The garage is no where close to being a clean environment but she won't allow us to be close to her to move her or the kittens.
I only want chestnut and the kittens to be safe and okay. We plan on getting chestnut fixed and letting her raise the kittens till they are old enough to be adopted out.
What can I do and how can I make sure they will be okay?
Thank you for any help!
