Ok so this is another question about the stray kittens.
I was at a friends house when my mom texted me saying that all the cats including mine, slept in my room all night. (I have a sliding door to the porch that my litle brother left open). They still want to be in my room but they're to scared cuz Im in there... So now the sleep out in the cold in a box with a blanket inside that I left outside my door for them.

The next day, I was able to catch one (the white one -- if you've seen the video in my last topic). but I didnt really know what to do with her when I got her inside. There was a scared kitty inside with an angry mom outside with 4 other kittens that run when they see you... whats the best way to catch all these lil' guys? My friend suggested getting a crate and when I see them eating the food (since they're already weaned thankfully) I pull a straing to shut the door.... does that sound ok?

They usually use trap cages. Ask at an association near your home. Perhaps they can help you.

Have a heart traps which are available at Home Depot and Lowe's they range in price from$19.99-$50.00 depending on the size. It does automatically what you're proposing. Feral kittens may or may not socialize well and adjust to being housecats. My Loki was feral, and adjusted to inside life in 20 minutes, my friend Beth has 3 formerly feral cats and they have not socialized to people and inside life well. It depends on the cat. Just have a lot of patience.

My cats own my house they just permit me to live there.
