At least the numbers work out that way assuming they keep having kittens and none of them die, etc. If each litter has 2.8 surviving offspring and each female cat has two litters per year. (Cat litters average about five and they can have a litter every three months so these numbers could be substantially higher.)

Year 1: (two cats litter at time zero, time six months and 12 months): 12 offspring

Year 2: 1/2 of all cats in Year 1 had 2.8 kittens at 18 and 24 months): 54

Year 3: 316

Year 4: 1819

Year 5: 10,479

Year 6: 60,360

Year 7: 347,674

Year 8: 2,002,600

Year 9: 11,534,979

Year 10:66,441,480

Total: 80,399,772

If you assume each litter has 4 kittens, the number is 6.9 billion. Even if each litter is two kittens, the total is still around two million. This is a pretty compelling case for fixing your cats.
