12. Post pictures
As far as spaying and neutering, it's easier to find homes for them when they're about 10 weeks old and they've had their first shots. Spaying and neutering doesn't come along until 5-6 months old. I think you'd be better off trying to find homes for them while kittens, it's easier that way.

13. It's easier
but in our neighborhood a lot of people don't spay and neuter, that's how we picked up preggers in the first place

11. How's Roy?
I kid... I have a 16lb Maine Coon (SP?) which is like having 3 cats. We use Feline Pine which eliminates all odor, is made from recycled procuct, and breaks down with no dust. very eco friendly and a really good product. IMO

17. our two primary cats
could easily beat a siamese in terms of energy and noise. Many people insist they must have some siamese in them.

21. You're a good soul
Please see if you can get some financial help in the spaying and neutering part - it's very expensive! Sometimes you can also make sure someone promises to spay or neuter the animal when they take it.
