I found some kittens in my garage - what should I do?
They look really young (maybe just a week or two old).
I am not sure if the mother is around or how to help them.
Any advice on what to do next would be appreciated!

Kitten Rescue 101 – A home-based rescue in Fremont, with an adoption fee of $175 (costly (: ).
Kittens are so cute - and if they chose you, maybe it is a sign. Maybe it is time to bring them home!

Aww, finding a 2-week-old kitten in your garage is both heartwarming and a bit of a rescue mission!
Here's a quick guide on how to care for a kitten that young:
#1. Keep the kitten warm
At 2 weeks old, kittens can't regulate their body temperature.
Use a heating pad or a warm water bottle wrapped in a towel, or sime kind of blanket.
#2. Feed kitten formula
They can't eat regular food yet.
Use kitten formula (KMR)—never cow's milk.
Feed with a bottle or syringe every 2–3 hours, including overnight.
Warm the formula slightly (test it on your wrist - it should be just warm, not hot).
