Need help regarding pregnant feral cat in Huntington

My sister has a feral friendly pregnant cat in her back yard. Does anyone know where she can bring her or the kittens after they are born? My sister would like to keep (have her fixed too) the cat but not the kittens.

TIA

She won't be able to immediately separate the cat from her kittens, since she needs to nurse.

She could try to adopt them out privately, since there's very, very few real no kill-shelters out there. She could also try contacting Bobbi and the Strays, a rescue group for cats.

For socialization reasons, they say kittens should should stay with their mom for 8 weeks. I would tell her to bring the kitty in the house now because once she goes to give birth, she may go to hide the kittens somewhere safe. She can start sharing on her facebook page now and ask her vet to start sharing too.

This. My cat did this, went into hiding after having her kittens. She moved them into the rooftop of a neighbor's garage when I was a kid.

What about Little Shelter? Did you try calling them?
