how do you get rid of kittens?

Question

i have 5 kittens and they are so cute. i don't know anybody that wants one. but they are getting too big to keep inside. what should i do

Answer 1

Sterilize your cat and sell the ones you have got now!!!

Answer 2

Spay them and their mother. http://www.lovethatcat.com/spayneuter.html#in can help you find a low cost spay/neuter organization in your area. This way you don't end up with MORE kittens you don't want.

To place them, try www.petfinder.com. You can find lists of rescue groups in your area. Just be prepared to know that it may be hard to find space. Hundreds of kittens are abandoned every single day. You can also try placing an ad in the paper or joining your local Freecycle Yahoo group and posting them there.

Be careful of one thing. If someone calls and says they will take the whole litter, watch out. A full size boa or python eats rabbits. Free kittens and puppies are a lot cheaper.

Answer 3

Though it is 'cute' to let your cat have kittens, it is very irresponsible when you don't know how you will take care of the litter or that you can sell or give them to people afterward.
I am a huge animal rights adocate, and to my mind, spaying/neutering your cat/dog when you get them is a great service to animal-kind. You can't imagine how many strays, and kittens/puppies are euthenized(killed) because people can't be bothered to 'fix' their pets. It is a horrible situation, of which you shouldn't be condoning. Sorry, but that's my opinion. I hope someone will buy/get them and treat them they way they should be treated.
As Bob Barker says on The Price is Right every day, "Spay and Neuter your pets!" please~!

Answer 4

Take their picture and post it at a vet’s office and the pet stores around and also contact a rescue place to see if they have any leads on people who want kittens. Ask your friends for referrals - ask them to give you the name and number of a couple of people you might call just to see if they know of anyone who would like a kitten. Hurry because kittens go fast whereas cats may not.

Answer 5

You can put them in a box and take them to a local grocery store. If you give them away for free to a good home, you can usually get rid of them fast. My sister has come home with so many kittens from stores. You can try selling them too, but usually people dont want to buy them. Just give them away.

Answer 6

Please do not give them away for free! Animals that are given away for free often wind up in laboratories or are used as bait to train fighting dogs. Read "Tragedy of Free to Good Home" at

Take them to your local pound, Human Society, SPCA, or local cat rescue shelter. Kittens are almost always adopted very quickly. This way you will know that they have gone to good homes and will be taken care of.

Answer 7

back in the day when i was a kid, i would always see ppl sitting in front of a grocery store with a big box of kittens or puppies, trying to give them away. i've actually gotten 2 kittens and i dog like that. maybe you can try that

Answer 8

Well it will be easiest to give them away...just put an add in the newspaper and ads in store windows and stuff... or give them to a NONE KILL animal shelter then you'll know for sure they will go to a nice home! and get your CAT FIXED SO THIS DOESNT HAPPEN AGAIN!!

Answer 9

put them in a basket with a blanket and take them to the flea market and walk around youll get alot of questions and say they are free or put a sign up by your driveway free kittens works for alot of people.

Answer 10

find the nearest cat rescue in your area and ask if they will help you find homes for the kittens...if they are a true rescue org. they will help.

to find a cat rescue go on to petfinder.com and click on rescue/shelter groups...then enter your zip code...this should bring up a list of rescue groups in your area.

Answer 11

try selling them to a pet store or give them away, you could even put an ad in the local paper!
