I realize these are very old posts, but I appreciate that they are still on the site! Just spayed my mama cat and they sent her home with an e-collar. She hates it and keeps taking it off! I am worried she will mess with her stitches but after reading these posts I am thinking I will just keep...
Fancy Feast is the canned food I am using and she was fine on that but since she likes dry food in the evening I bought blue kitten which is grain free. When I started feeding her this a couple days ago it upset her stomach. I was hoping she would get used to it after a few days. Of course...
I currently have a cat with diarrhea because I abruptly changed her food. I was not aware that I should gradually change it in order to avoid stomach upset. Does anyone know how long the diarrhea will last? Approximately? I don't want to switch her back to the other stuff.
Also is it okay to...
Oh good, I was beginning to worry.
I have two girls 8 and 10 yrs old. They go in to say hi to mama kitty and they were playing with her with some cat toys...is that okay? I don't want mama to lose interest in kittens. Please forgive all my silly questions, lol, I lack much knowledge when it...

Thank you for the advice, I appreciate it more than you know. I am SO stressed out with worry...I don't even know if I have anything to worry about!
So I was finally able to see mama nursing and there were 2 that weren't on. I tried to get them to bottle feed but they wouldn't AND mama was...
First time "Mama cat owner" here, needless to say I'm very stressed.
She had her babies last night, 7 total. The mother kitty seems to be doing well, but I was stressed that she had them in the garage. I made sure they were all on a blanket and this morning I moved them from the garage into the...
Thank you for the advice. I decided to remove soiled towels they weren't using and replaced with clean ones. She immediately moved to a cleaner area and I gathered her babies for her. I am still a little nervous about moving them to the laundry room. It's 1:55 in the morning here in Texas and...
My cat just gave birth to her kittens in the garage on a blanket under a shelf. Its warm in there but mamas back half is off the blanket so I am assuming kittens are not all on blanket either. Should I crawl under there and move them or let them be? They are in an enclosed little room in garage...
