Rent, buy, or borrow a have a heart trap. Catch the cat, have her spayed (if
possible at this time) and try to find her a home. That is the best thing
you can do for her. A stray cat's life is very short filled with hunger and
disease. This will happen to her and her kittens.

If the cat is actually leaking milk then birth is imminent and it's too late
to spay until after the kittens are weaned. Like someone else said get a
have a heart trap and get this girl asap. If she has the kittens outside you
have to locate the nest before you trap mom. If you can get them and the Mom
then start contacting rescue groups right away. If you are willing to foster
mom and her litter while she's nursing you might be able to find some help
in getting mom spayed and adopted (if she's socialized) and the kittens
adopted.
