There is something you can do. I would see if there were other likeminded people in the neighborhood, and together you can approach the neighbor. Ask them if they need help rehoming the kittens and educate them about neutering their cat. (of course just putting them in homes won’t do it unless they to are spayed). Some people are against neutering, but more often than not, people don’t know or they are just simply overwhelmed keeping up with it when they think about that many kittens.

Maybe say you have noticed that the cats are roaming and would hate for either another animal to get them (very possible fate for a young cat with owls, other cats, coyotes, in the neighborhood) or for animal control to pick them up where they may not come out.

Like I say, a lot of people do care but are overwhelmed. If they say the kittens are not their problem, then maybe trap/neuter release to stop them from multiplying at the very least may help.

Regarding this post about Kitten season, I’ve never thought about it before. Wow!!! I do know that one of my neighbors has recently populated our neighborhood with about 20 kittens and they are ripping up the trash bags up and down our allies. Also some of the cats have camped out on my porch and are now urinating all over the porch.

I’ve had cats before but had to give them away since I am allergic. And I love cats ONLY when people are responsible with them BUT NOT like my neighbor. I’ve put out lots of moth balls on the porch as I was told that would ward off the cats. It only works for a short period of time. Oh well…. just deal with it. I do ask the cats sometimes If they would stop peeing on my porch but they laugh at me.

God Bless
