Answer 1

Also there's the very real posiblity of them ending up as snake food.  If you don't believe me, search the reptile section.

Answer 2

sure I'll take all 13!  If there's any black ones, I will save them to kill and sacrifice for Halloween, some of them I'll sell to the lab and make money, and the rest I'll let my dogs tear apart because Im teaching them to be aggressive!

Ok no, I wouldnt really do that to a cat..  the point is, you shouldnt give them away for free.  Put a small adoption fee on the cats.. $20-25.  People with bad intentions are less likely to take an animal if they have to pay for it.

Answer 3

People who want free pets can be:

1) Looking for bait to train fighting dogs

2) Looking for animals to sell to labs

3) Dangerous

Always ask for an adoption fee, you can always waive it once you have met the person.  Do you have a local spca, humane society or shelter?  

What is the plan for these people for the future?  If they continue to have intact cats, you will just be digging them out in another year.  People that let cats breed uncontrolled and cannot afford them often end up right back where they started after good people help them out.  Sometimes education and monitoring is necessary, hope you are prepared for the task.

Also, often cats in risky situations like this are not healthy and can be inbred.  You might consider providing some vetting or at least being up front with folks about the risks.  It could be a danger to more than the cat they are adopting, it could also be a danger to their current pets.
