Hi Keith,
I fully understand your frustration. How old are you by the way? How incredible that someone of your age is so compassionate towards these animals!
If I were you, I'd type up one standard letter/email explaining the situation and send it out to a number of animal welfare groups...set out the help you need and what you are willing/able to do yourself (eg trapping, continuing to feed til homes are found etc). I'd also start taking pics and advertising the kitties for rehoming asap...there should be a website for cat adoptions in your local area that you can post to??? Put posters up in vet & pet stores. Call or fax as many vets as you can with pics of the kitties asking if they can post them, also ask if the clinic or any of their staff can take any of them on. You may find that a vet clinic might be happy to rehome at least the youngsters for you....I had a vet nurse take an adult feral from me once.
Also, soon I will be in a position to put other people's kitties on my site for rehoming. I am getting stray/feral animal lovers from all over the world on my site and you might get some help there.
Good on ya mate! From an Aussie!
