I haven't followed this thread the entire way through but my suggestion is $25 a piece. Anyone who objects, let them go. Some hunters around here use kittens to train their hunting dogs and they also use them as target practice. Of course, I'm not saying that all hunters do this but I've had hunters here tell me this to my face, so giving them away for free or even for $5 is risky. I know, it's easy to tell others what to do when you're not in their shoes. When I was actively involved in rescue, I was down to 27 outdoor cats to find homes for before I moved and people actually said to me "Why don't you take them w/you?" Yeah, ok. As if it wasn't difficult enough to put out houses and food for all those cats. Now I'm expected to transport all of them. Where I lived at that time, it was easy to hide all those cats because I lived high on a hill away from view. But the house I live in now is in a neighborhood and I can only imagine the reception I would've gotten had I brought 27 outdoor cats and houses w/me plus my own 8 indoor cats. I would've been called a hoarder, even though the majority lived outdoors. I had every one of them altered and up to date on shots and meds before I found them homes and I did it out of pocket, so I truly can relate to your situation, Rebecca. It ain't easy. Plus you love the little critters and want what's best for all of them. I sure wish I could take one but, as I mentioned earlier, I'm maxed out on cats and money. I wish you only the best in your endeavor to find good, permanent homes for these babies.
