I need advice about a friend of mine. It involves 3 kittens and sure what to do

[Dznypal]

I’m sure some of you remember I’ve been writing some about my friend but now I really need advice

The person she lives with is really a friend of her daughter. There both in their early 40s. This person has been living off my befriend on and off for years. She has 3 grown kids like late teens early 20. Who sometimes live there

Anyways they found evidence of mice in the basement so one of this persons kids brought over 3 4 month old kittens they got from a friend
There too young to be much help for mice so now my friend is trying to get rid of them
She has a handyman working for her his mom pased a few months ago so this is where 2 of the kittens are. Not sure about the 3rd one
This house is empty the handyman said he’ll go in once a day to feed and look after them but that’s it

These are babies. They need someone to look after them more then once a day.
Not sure where to go with this issue.
I really hate knowing these kitties are by themselves

Any advice.
The kittens are adorable
I also have no clue where this house is
They’ve been using my friends basement as one giant litter box since said person can’t afford litter

I recommend gathering as much information as possible and contacting a qualified rescue group. I hope they can save those kitties!

I'd probably work in the shadows here.
Contact some shelters and see if they have room.
Then contact your friend and say omg I'd love to take them.
Then bring them to the shelter.
Who's smart idea was it anyways to say let's toss 3 kittens in the house without litter boxes and yeah they'll get the mic instead of saying hey let's go grab some mouse traps and get rid of the mice?

I agree with the others where it might be best for you to take them and work with a shelter.

Or if you do not want to be involved you can try to Contact Animal Control Officer in your area if you have one, they can investigate and if needed intervene with legal authority

Oh and if you think your friend is being taken advantage of with your friend then I'd consider contacting adult protective services and asking them to do a wellness check.
