Cat Haven staff have named the mother Mary and have given the kittens biblical names, including Joseph, JC, Frankie, Murr, Goldie and Beth.
Marketing officer Chandra Woodley said there may have been another mother cat involved at some point because the kittens were slightly different ages and there were too many kittens for one mother to feed.
“They were pretty hungry when we found them,” she said.
“Sadly, they were dumped on the doorstep in a box rather than in the amnesty cages at our door where there is shade, food and water ready.”
Ms Woodley said the animals’ health is being closely monitored and they would hopefully be adopted quickly when they were old enough.
Cat Haven currently has more than 330 cats on-site and then another 500 in foster care that will return soon.
“We are urgently calling for temporary foster carers who can take on some kittens for just a month or so, to look after them until they’re old enough for adoption, or adult cats to give them a break from the shelter,” Ms Woodley said.
