Remember...
It’s natural to want to help, but in most cases, the best thing you can do is look but don’t touch. Mother cats often leave their kittens temporarily to search for food. Wait and watch from a distance. If you can, check back periodically and allow up to 8 hours for Mom to return. Kittens have the best chance of survival with their mother, so it’s critical they remain in her care whenever possible.
Once the kittens are eight weeks old, contact us to get the whole family spayed/neutered. (If the cats aren’t tame, call 602.265.SPAY for help with Trap-Neuter-Return.) Then, ask your friends, family and neighbors if they’d like to adopt a loving, fixed feline!
