she is a wild cat that i hurt.

Answer 1

Yes raise them yourself for now, but you really need someone to come and find the mother, like an animal control person or something, the mother would be worried about her kittens and would of attacked you if she had known you were going to take her kittens, she'll be back for the kittens, and might need medical help.

well thats what i would do anyway... goodluck

Answer 2

Give the mother cat a chance to come back and take care of them. She will likely return when nobody else is around.  I had a feral cat and her kittens in my backyard and she was very protective of them and wouldn't let me near.   If she doesn't come back, then you could try to hand raise them and give them away.  

Answer 3

leave them the mother will return and look for them

Answer 4

you should get the kittens very used to humans. leave the kittens for about a day, and if she doesn't come back them you should hand raise them. taking the kittens is the best thing to do.

Answer 5

Leave them in the same place they were. Wait a day or two, and don't go near them, just look out your window and watch to see if the mother comes back. But keep an eye on the kittens though, just in case something may happen to them. If the mother doesnt come back, feed the kittens formula, and hand raise them, and if you want give them away. Some may not make it though. Depends on the age they are. Most likely though, the mother SHOULD come back, as long as you don't go near the kittens or touch them, for a day or two.

And if the mother does come back, leave them be, until the kittens eyes are open and there up and walking, than if you want you may take the kittens and try and give them away. They should be tame, as long as you, get them in time, but that is entierly up to you, if you want to give them away, or just let them stay wild cats like there mother.

Good Luck!

Answer 6

Yes, you can hand raise them. I'm sure they will turn out tame if you do, do this. Just see how they turn out but more then likely they should be good kittens, that you could give away. If one of their eyes is open their probably about two weeks old, which is a good age to raise them because they say they should be on the mothers milk for at least a few days, so for hand feeding they should do great. She should return to them though, as long as you didn't mess up her nest too much, but if you have touch them she can pick up on your scent so it's up to you. I would probably just go ahead and hand feed them.
