    Engorged momma

    I thought that they should be weaned. I read it should have been even earlier, but I figured that the mother would wean them when she was ready. They are completely on solid food (wet food twice a day and dry food available always), aside from the nursing. I started them on solids at about 4...

    Engorged momma

    My cat has a litter of 5 kittens, now 9 weeks old. They have stopped nursing, by what I think was mom's doing. Everytime any of them would come to nurse, she would get up and walk away from them as if she no longer wanted them to nurse. Now, her breasts are extremely engorged. Just by...

    Nursing mom not eating

    My cat is a new mother (April 19th) and she is not eating. She eats only once a day, sometimes less, and for only a few seconds (literally) at a time. She lays with ker kittens all day, which is a good thing I would assume, but I also am sure that she should be eating more than she normally...

    What do I do? Kittens!

    I think the conditions are even better now, because I have my bed back!! I don't think my fiance enjoyed sleeping with the mattress in the middle of the floor last night I ended up leaving it almost exactly how it is in my photo, only I pulled the frame away from the wall about a foot and a...

    What do I do? Kittens!

    I was able to get a blanket down there that they are laying on, it just seems like the carpet is not the greatest place for them to be. It's folded up and there's really no place they can get caught at. I tried it putting a blanket down last night and moved them all onto it, but when I woke up...

    What do I do? Kittens!

    She is actually very affectionate towards me! I will move them out from under there, thanks! I was hoping for a quick response, I am very overwhelmed right now because I was not expecting this in the least bit today!

    What do I do? Kittens!

    Okay. I knew that my cat was pregnant, and I knew that she should be giving birth any day now, because she conceived around mid-Februrary. I was prepared for the kittens, ready to help my cat out when they were coming, but they happened to come on the one day that I was gone all day! I was at...

    Kittens & Vacation

    Hi! I live in Orangevale! So you're right next door to me I don't think I've ever met anyone so close, I live right off of Greenback and Citrus Heights is only 5 minutes down the street. The closest I've met is in Elk Grove, I think. Thanks for the advice, it's a little bit reassuring The...

    Kittens & Vacation

    Hi, Thanks for the responses Yes, I kind of thought they would be a bit young to be left alone for such a long period of time. I will have to see what is going to happen - it will be hard to change the date of the trip, as any later in the summer is a bad time for us to go, but I'm sure we...

    Kittens & Vacation

    My 1.5 year old cat is pregnant, due around mid-April. Since November, my family and I have been planning on a trip to Disneyland, but were unsure of what dates we would go. Based on our schedules (school, work, and graduation dates), our trip is now planned for May 19th through May 23rd. My...
