I found them....

I've been home today with a migraine. When I got up this evening I thought I heard kittens. I've been expecting this, the neighbor chose to leave his unspayed queen outside in the hopes that she will have a litter. What he didn't expect was that she would go totally ferral...I don't know why not, he wasn't feeding her and she had no human contact. I tried to make friends with her but since she went into heat she's been way too skittish. She was pursued relentlessly by a half a dozen toms and I haven't seen her since. So....I went looking. She's on my back porch with four kittens at least but if I get within 4 feet of her she attacks violently. I took her food but ended up dumping water on her when I tried to take it to her because she kept pursuing me. I want to help her but she's protecting her kittens. It's kinda scary just going out to give her food and water.
