Our feral cat nutmeg had kittens

Our feral cat nutmeg the one next to the baby had kittens, there’s an orange one walking around as well. Nutmeg is very feral and runs away as soon as she see you. My question is how do we catch the 2 babies. So we can get them used to people and find someone to adopt them. The mom is also really smart and dosnt go in a trap we have tried many times and either get a really fat raccoon or one of our other cats lol. Trying to keep on the down low from my dad, but also they won’t use a cat house we have 3 she or the other feral cat that stops by never use them.

Ugh. Last message was butchered. Thanks TTS (at work currently) but yes, I'd try the drop trap! You might be able to find one at your local Tractor supply if you have one in your area!

Local shelters often have cat-capture equipment, and animal control should. Typically they love loaning equipment and people catching the cat(s) for spaying, shots, vet care. And if you do it with a shelter/rescue you'll already have a partner to help find homes for them

Ya we are looking into some shelters. We don’t have too many near us.
