Rooster,



You may want to check your state and local laws regarding releasing
felines into the neighborhood. I know the state that I used to live in,
significantly cut down the feral cat colony population. There were too many
complaints regarding felines urinating and defecating in neighbor's yards,
going through trash... Unfortunately, the complaints drew attention from
animal control and the felines were taken into custody. From there animal
control determined the age of the feline, sex and if it had any medical
problems. It may seem unfair, but you may want to review your local laws
regarding feral's. If you do plan to release the cats into your area, make
sure you have them neutered, and all vaccinations taken care of. You may
also want to consider tagging the cats, so if they are trapped and taken
into custody the will call you instead of doing something else. Below is the
local ordinance regarding animals, which was rewritten just a few months ago
and it includes cats/felines.





No ANIMAL shall be allowed to unreasonably annoy humans, to endanger the
life or health of other ANIMALS or PERSONS acting lawfully, or to
substantially interfere with the rights of others thereby interfering with
the reasonable use and enjoyment of property. It shall be prima facie
evidence of nuisance if an ANIMAL:
(1) consistently and/or constantly makes excessive noise;
(2) causes damage to or destruction of another's property;
(3) causes unsanitary, dangerous or offensive conditions, including the
fouling of the air by offensive odor emanating from excessive excrement; or
(4) creates a pest, parasite or scavenger control problem which is not
effectively treated.
(B) Upon receipt of an "Affidavit of Complaint," signed by 2 or more
unrelated COUNTY residents, each residing in separate dwellings in the
vicinity in which the alleged violation occurred, made under oath or
affirmation before an individual authorized by law to take acknowledgments,
setting forth the nature and the date of the act or acts, the OWNER of the
ANIMAL, the address of the OWNER and description of the ANIMAL doing such
act or acts, an ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER shall conduct an investigation of the
incident. In the discretion of the DEPARTMENT, other reliable evidence may
replace one of the required affidavits.

If the poster really wants to do the right thing, they will ignore your
idiotic advice.
Unsocialized cats and kittens are considered "unadoptable" and are
killed. If the poster can't keep the kittens for whatever reason the
responsible thing to do is to find a good home for them, however long it
takes. Dumping them on an overburdened shelter who shouldn't have to
take on the responsibility of someone that is perfectly capable of
housing and finding homes for the kittens is the WRONG thing to do. I
suggest you stop typing such nonsense and start seeing reality

I intend to keep them all in the house for now,At around 5-6 months , I
will
take them all to get fixed.
and release them into my backyard.and Feed them daily
IF I get really attached by then or they're scared of the outside, I
might
keep them as House cats.
Im also going to trap momma cat and get her fixed and release her in my
yard.

Thanks,
