I have a personal dilemma, cat lovers please help!
Okay, so my crawl space flooded and we had to leave the crawl open to pump the water out overnight. Well, this morning, I've discovered a mama cat and her kittens (~5-6 weeks old) have moved in.

Do I call the humane society to see if they'll take them because they will just keep breeding outside? OR Do I just feed them regularly and hope they stay in my backyard, cause they may just be euthanized at the shelter.

So, what's better: 3-4 short years of life or a 50/50 shot at being adopted? I can't take in any more, my hubby will kill me. Any suggestions? btw-they're sooooo cute...

1. Find a no-kill shelter....
Your local SPCA should have a list of them in your area. Good luck!

3. No-kill shelter, - Try PAWS, - the progressive animal welfare society.
I had a cat adopted from a PAWS shelter, they don't euthanise healthy animals and they take really good care of them while they're waiting for homes.
