My family says it's to much work to keep the males and females away from each other for 20 to 30 days she said even 2 days is too much work

That’s why they need spaying and neutering. Do you have a friend or family member who can drive you to spay and neuter appointments?

You sound very responsible for your age!

No but I can figure it out maybe my grandma idk

I'm sorry to hear you're in such a desperate situation. You seem very responsible for your age, I'm glad your pets have got you to look out for their well being, even if your parents won't do.

So, you have 14 cats and kittens as well as 2 dogs? Are any of them spayed or neutered?

As I'm sure you realise, the cats are going to continue to breed very quickly if nothing is done. You really need to do something about the situation now, or you are going to be completely over run with kittens and will have to make some heart breaking choices. If you could get the adult cats spayed would your parents agree to turn the kittens over to a shelter? Could you ask your grandmother to talk to you parents about this?

It's not good for your health and it's not good for your younger siblings to be in a home with so many pets, especially if the cats are breeding, the kittens are dying and the litter boxes aren't being cleaned as much as they need to be.

I'm sending you some links to check.
