That's why I foster kittens--during the season I have a full supply! If I wanted to and have the time, I can foster three or four litters between April and November. in 2016 I did three: five bottle babies, then three a little older, then two. I'd recommend it if you love kittens and have the time. The bottle babies are the most work, by far, but they get very attached to you.

If you have little time, you can still foster a mom with babies. That amounts to simply caring for the mother's needs, and then socializing the babies.
