Feral Cat

I have a in-door cat - one of the most friendliest cat you can find - really a beautiful cat - follows me all around the house - a couple months ago a stray cat came around and then one day I saw a orange kitten by a wood pile I have on the property - well sure enough - the stray cat had 4 kittens - one day she brings the kittens over to my house and hangs around - I feel sorry for the kittens so I put some dry cat food out for them so they have something to eat - well you guessed it - now I have these cats hanging around - I don't want the cats because before you know it these cats will have more cats - so I'm kinda lost what to do at this point - what I'm thinking of doing at this point is to let them live until the Fall and then get rid of them one by one - it won't be an easy thing to do - the kittens are cute but that's what happens when people don't fix their cats - I read that a female cat can have 3 litters a year - moral of the story is - don't be soft hearted -

Old mother winter will take care of them, outside cats don't last long in the wild.

Right now I can't get close to them - they run away from me - I am trying to get closer so when I feed them I stand around - hopefully I'll be able to touch them enough to handle them - we'll see -

If you keep feeding them and taking care of them it will make your heart softer and be more difficult to get rid of them.
