You can have all of the kittens in our neighborhood then. We just rescued 2x starving 8 week olds from a drain pipe (one died) just to find a fucking 2 week old screaming in our backyard. Luckily we found someone who can bottle feed the adorable asshole every 3 hours.
The kitten distribution system fucking blows when you live near a feral cat colony. We already have 6 cats, of which 4 are foster fails because we're suckers and don't think strangers will take proper care of them. We purposefully haven't named the new one because we can't keep her and still provide proper veterinary care.
I can take at least 2
Then come on down to Texas. They're the cutest fuckers you'll ever meet. The one we just found a foster for is a super pretty dilute calico, but if she's anything like our dilute calico she'll be a beautiful bitch.
It will take more than kittens to get me to enter Texas
That's definitely fair. Our too many cats is a big reason we can't leave.
I'm sorry about you living in Texas. I won't even step foot in your country right now and most of my countrymen won't touch products made by your country.
Your whole country is pretty messed up, and Texas seems to be leading the charge in the amount of crazy shit they can put into law.... Right next to Florida.
Have you looked in if your local government has a catch a release program. Where I am some of the rural areas have a process where they spay or neuter, clip the ear then release them back to the area.
They do, but there's a limit on what we can afford, even with it being subsidized
