My father thinks that she simply didn't have enough milk, thet for some reason she dried up.
Since this cat is semi-wild, I don't see spraying her as all that possible not without a way to drug her so she doesn't spend the whole time in the carrier and to the vet's office in absolute scratching screaming fright. I can't imagine how'd they'd drug her for the operation, put it in her food? o.o
We live on a farm though, so we have the room, we've been dealing with a small feral cat group my whole life. They have freedom of the grounds, take care of rodents and we provide a constant supply of cat food, and water in the shed.
Mother nature has her own way of keeping the numbers down out here, it's not like in the towns and city areas.

Doctors know ways to pin down screaming kitties. 0.o There's this one devil she-cat at my barn named Callie Coe.... And he just pinned her down by the scruff of her neck and gave her a vaccination/shot thing. 0.o She makes the funniest noises when she's plotting murder...

Aw...and they're so cute too. That's really too bad, Lumi. I'm sorry that you have the stress of caring for them when you're probably busy. I hope you can find some people to help you with this task. Unfortunately I know next to nothing about caring for very young animals so I can't really help you out.
*hugs* Good luck with them!

You can always check for a Trap Neuter Release program near where you live. These are people who specialize in wild cats. They come in, catch them, spay/neuter them, often give them a rabies shot, then let 'em go back where they came from. That's what I'm doing with the feral cat colony living in my backyard.
