Hey. Mrs Green Jeans.... that's a good suggestion ;)
Another one I read was to put parmesan cheese on top... tried that and Sashi at a bunch the first time... not so much the second...
seems that she's looking for something that's "missing"
I also read that dry food is like a drug for...
DuckPond,Thank you kindly for your thoughtful response...
There was no recommendation for any specific or particular type of wet food.
It would be insane to try to set a feeding schedule for 11 other cats... ;)
they all come and have little snacks all day long.. they never eat much at any...
I had 4 sisters.
One had rectal prolapse a number of times.
The vet didn't tell me that it was likely to
recur and I didn't have any aftercare instructions
for her. It happened again about a year later and
we couldn't catch her... she died
Now, another of the sisters - Sashi - had the same...
We have a pet door for the dogs, so the
cats also come and go....
I do grab up all of the babies and lock them
in the bathroom at night
Sebastian (big, older male) was used to
taking off for very long periods of time..
He's actually been staying around the house
more....
his two sisters...
Norachan, thank you
thanks also for telling me that he could
still impregnate my other females...that
was a shocker....
5 more girls are going in two weeks...
Sebastian (big male - now neutered)
took off almost immediately after
waking... I've not seen him now for
more than a day ;(
I'm...
the male cat is huge and strong
and, really, really sweet and loving
He's about 6 years old now.
He's sweet to kittens, too...
however, when they become adults,
he beats the snot out of them.
he is going to be neutered next week
and I'm hoping that his behaviour
will become less aggressive...
I had 4 females - unrelated - for a great
many years....
at first, there was quite a bit of growling, etc...
after awhile, they all got along just fine...
my favourite memory of them was coming
into the living room and seeing all 4 lying
in a circle - like spokes of a wheel...
in the...
You are awesome... I never even thought about that
Hopefully, they are going to the vet in the next week
or two...
None of my other cats ever behaved this way when
they were in heat....
I just kept thinking about the problems she had
from birth and that the two were somehow related.
Will...
4 1/2 months ago, one of my cats had 5 kittens
which she abandoned after about 3 weeks.
I bottle fed the kittens for 3-5 weeks
One of the babies became "comatose-like"
after every feeding.... she did this for
about a month and finally, seemed to grow
out of it. She is also a great deal...
Update!!!!!!
Tiny Miss is 2 months old today and
she's tipped the scales at 17 5/8 ounces
No more episodes.
She's now sleeping with her siblings
and wrestling/playing with them, too....
thanks and hugs to all
We were going to be gone for much of the
day so I gave her more formula at one time
than I have been for the past 4 or 5 days....
she kept "asking" for more.......
and, when we came home, she was in a
deep sleep???
She yawns and stretches and meows a bit
and won't wake up... by tomorrow...
I don't know for certain.
I think she does better with her siblings than
by herself so, put her back in with them....
I'm going to assume that she has because
she's not had any more "episodes" (3 days)
and she's eating the mash along with the others...
she is really strong and very mobile...
Day three and no more passing out..
she seems to be completely healthy
will probably never know what was going
on....
thank you all for your care and concern
Well, we are on day 2 of NOT going
"comatose"..... I was keeping her in
a separate bed/box to see if she
pooped.... not.....
she woke several times last night
and cried.... I fed her.... the last time
was 4 a.m. and I put her in with her
siblings....
She's spent the day on my bed with...
