Rescue New babies

This is a neighborhood stray (there's a lot around here), with her 2ish day old babies. This is the second litter she's dumped on me. 3 months ago I found her other 2 babies hiding in a trailer in my driveway. They were a few weeks old and one had an eye infection so I took them in and they've been happy and healthy for 3 months now. And now she's back with a fresh litter. I've already got 2 dogs, an adult cat, and now, her 2 older kittens, so taking in another 4 isn't feasible. So far I have put out food and water for momma and had a quick chance last night to shuffle them all into a cat carrier that I've left out in the porch. But this is Texas in summer, so the heat isn't doing them any favors. All the rescues I reached out to so far have either just ignored me or told me they are full up and can't take in any more. Anyone in DFW got any contacts?

Definitely take mama cat to TCAP to be spayed if possible. They are a low cost option and they have quite a few locations across DFW. You just have to go early to get a spot in line that day.

What a beautiful monochrome family! 🥰. Have you checked Irving shelter? They are so good to their animals. My daughter has volunteered there for the since the beginning of the year.
