I am in Southern, California, not far from the Inland Empire.

To Mauve, you mentioned an appliance box. Exactly what type of appliance box? Where do you get an appliance box (without having to buy an appliance?) I don't have any appliance boxes at home.

Why does the Tomcat kill the kittens? Do they always do that?
Is there any way to prevent a tomcat from doing that?

I can't get close to the tomcat to even pet it.
When I feed the mommy cat, the tomcat comes by to eat some of the food sometimes but it won't let you get near it. What I mean is, if you try to go near it - it runs away quickly. I don't have any kind of trap or anything so don't know how I would get it.

If I call the animal shelter, the tomcat would have to be around when they get here and that cat is not always around so the people from the shelter wouldn't be able to catch it unless the cat happens to be nearby when they get here. I just don't know what do and scared the tomcat will kill the baby kitties.

Also when you call the shelter, they don' always come right out.
Found this out some years ago when I called them about a dead dog in the street and they didn't come by for several days.
Maybe understaffed - I don't know or different priorities they are dealing with.
