There's a lot of posts there about helping feral kitties as well as resources for getting spay/neutering done for cheap or free and all kinds of great info on trapping, etc. There's a number of people in there that help feral kitties as you do and are very knowledgeable and helpful. I'm one of the hosts of the Pet Group and know you will be very welcomed there. As far as I'm concerned it's just the bestest group on DU... very loving and caring. Unfortunately, I know just about nothing about kitties personally (I'm allergic, sad to say), but lots of people there are very familiar with issues concerning help for feral kitties and would be happy to help you in any way.

Here's the link to the Pet Group...

I'm really sad that your area has no resources for your feral kitty issue, and I'm so glad that you are feeding them and working so hard on this project! Is there any way you would be able to adopt out at least some of the kitty babies when they're born and are old enough to leave their kitty mommies? The life of a feral kitty is just so harsh, and it just makes me so sad for them! Every domestic animal should have a good and loving home where they are well cared for.
