Thanks for the responses. The problem is, I can't ignore them, the banging is really loud and I have an elderly neighbour who lives below us and the noise is going straight through to him, it's really unfair of me to just let them bang. If it wasn't for that I would try leaving them to learn but...

Please please help, I'm at the end of my tether! My two male kittens are almost 7 months old. They are very happy, healthy, loving babies but with one big problem. For the first month or so we had them we closed them in our living room/kitchen area all the time, and then after just at night so...

Thanks Wincheser, that's really helpful :)

I've been feeding our almost 15 week kittens high quality wet food since we got them, Natures Menu pouches and Lily's Kitchen (both UK brands I don't think are available in the US) They're both very high meat content, great nutrients, the vets said how healthy they are and how well they're...

This is Loki and Goku! They're very happy and settling in well, eating everything offered and no accidents at all! image.jpg (1,202k. jpg file)

Thanx CHWx, that's good advice. Putting it in separate bags definitely a good idea. I'm in England and haven't seen a lot of the brands people here mention, but I've taken the general advice for reading the ingredients of what we have here. Would be interesting for someone to do a thread of...

I've got wet food and will mostly be feeding that, but will have some dry as well. The food I've got is in little sealed trays instead of cans, so will probably cling film them in the fridge, but as will be feeding kittens little and often they won't have to stay open long! I'll have to clip up...

Thanks :) How long does a bag of dry food stay fresh for once opened? It doesn't seem very clear on the bag!

Do people feed their cats the same brand every day for every meal? If you combine different ones do you rotate each meal? Or per day or per week? I want my kittens to have a lot of variety but reading around it seems people have different patterns? Any advice?

Hi! Thanks for the congrats! My aunt is a veterinary technician so they're getting registered at her vets before we even get them! The kittens mum also goes to the same vet so there's continuity there too. They'll be booked in for their vaccinations soon after we get them, but they won't neuter...

Sod them complaining! It's their job to deliver stuff, I'm sure they can handle a fee stairs! Viovet use DPD though which in my experience are the best and nicest couriers. And if you want to empty the shelves do it, supermarkets can always restock. Generally I prefer internet ordering for most...

Hi all! My boyfriend and I are adopting two male kittens in about 10 days, they'll be just over 8 weeks then. We've never had cats before. I was never allowed one as a child as my Nan, who I lived with, didn't like them. My partners family are dog people. But we're both very excited for our new...

Thanks! I thought the kitten specific food stuff was because they need more nutrients when they're growing? Good point about the mouse though!

Hi all! My boyfriend and I are adopting two male kittens in about 10 days, they'll be just over 8 weeks then. Just looking for any tips on helping them feel at home and also training them. They are coming from a family home with other cats, including other kittens, and seem to be weaning and...

Stephie I don't know If this would help you, but have you looked online for food? Viovet.co.uk is good and if you're pregnant and having difficulty carrying heavy cans (totally understandable!) maybe getting it delivered would be better for you? Worth a look surely? They also do medicines like...
