So today our neutered males have started trying to mount the pregnant female. I mean if we catch them we've been getting them off her, but is this a sign we should seperate them or at least if we can't supervise have them seperated?

Thank you! It was a very frightening sound. I nearly jumped out of my skin. The boys are rough playing together, and after discussing the boyfriend and I are planning basically supervised interactions between them for the first little while. Generally, all of them are calm but active and playful.

Yes, we did give her a second dose 2 to 3 weeks afterwards. Sorry it took me so long to reply. Thank you for the information about vaccinations. I just got woken up to her making a very sharp growling like sound. Is this normal? Neither of the boys are near her and she's just rubbing against my...

Unfortunately, we were planning to wait until February to take her for a full check as we had very little money around Christmas as our boys needed shots renewed anyway. We had flea combed her after we left the place and just before we left we dewormed all the cats in that house at our own expense.

So, let's start off with how this happened. We ended up getting this girl from a cat horder that we used to live with. She passed her off to us when we decided to move out because she knew how attached the cat was to us. We thought as she was almost two at the time that she had been spayed...

Okay. That sounds right. Luckily these babies came from a loving home and family that unfortunately were going to have to move away. So rather than letting them end up in a shelter or worse, we wanted to take them in. The other cat has fully adjusted already which I'm surprised at, but the...

So my boyfriend and I picked up two male kittens (7 months) today, and I understand that they need time adjusting and I am trying to give them their space as they wander the house sniffing and exploring things. One of them has warmed up to me some and will sometimes come and cuddle . The other...
