How many cats did Jeff have before the kittens and injured cat? ** Counting the cats he had, the kittens he found, and the injured cat, Jeff had a total of 20 + 2 + 1 = <<20+2+1=23>>23 cats.
How many cats did the 3 people take? ** 3 people took a total of 3 * 2 = <<3*2=6>>6 cats.
How many cats does Jeff currently have in his shelter? ** After Wednesday, Jeff was left with 23 - 6 = <<23-6=17>>17 cats.
