What do you do if your kitten is born in your yard?
- Bring the whole family inside to a quiet, small room (like a bathroom). You can also use a large dog crate, covered with a blanket.
- Provide the mother cat and kittens with a carrier as a hiding place. Provide food and water, and a litter box placed as far away from the sleeping and eating area as possible.
Where are the kittens in my back yard?
Toni said. “I have kittens in my back yard!” It’s a sure bet that Toni and her husband, Roger (a “sworn cat hater”), hadn’t listed their backyard shed with any Feline Airbnb, yet a little black-and-white cat had claimed it as a lovely nursery anyway. Since that time they had spotted three tiny kittens frolicking in the snow.

What should you do if you find a mother kitten?
Try to determine if the mother is coming back for them, or if they are truly orphaned. To do this, stand far away from the kittens — 35 feet or more. If you stand too close, the mom will not approach her kittens. You might need to go away completely before the mother cat will return to attend to the kittens.

Call a shelter: If you are unsure, you can always call your local shelter for advice on when or if you should move a found kitten. Kamiya also suggests, and I agree, that whether you find a stray kitten or not, think about becoming a kitten foster parent.
