Thank you all for your amazing help, but I'm still a little clueless:
I tried a bath, but Bibi (that's her name) won't get in! She keeps clawing and fidgeting and basically going nuts! I brushed her afterwards to get her purring again, but it wasn't a great experience. Any tips?
By the way: I...
My cat is about 6 months old, siamese long-hair mix. She was separated from her mom at about 1 month, and she isn't like normal cats.
First, she didn't "knead" until she was about 4 months old.
Second, she doesn't clean herself, especially not on the rear area. <-- I'm most concerned about this...
... I'm working on getting her pic online -- she's very photogenic. But right now she's purring softly on my lap with her tailed curled under her like a monkey. We almost went with 'monkey tail' as her name but though Bibi (Bee Bee) would suit her better.
She is a longhaired siamese mix who is...
My baby Tiggy got hit by a car. He was literally a baby...
But anyway, it has been four months, and Kaeli wants a new kitten. I personally don't feel like one yet, in fear that it may get hit, too. But it is a possibility.
One thing makes me think quickly, though: Every day I wait, another...

Shortly: Tiggy just passed away and my friend with the stray kittens is offering me Piglette...
...I had no where else to put it. Do you know when exactly kitten season is? I mean, I guess it's somewhere around this time, but I haven't heard of it until just recently.
We live in San Francisco, and since Gemma's feeling a little lonely, we'd love to come and look at your kitten, but could we please have some more details?
Probably, because they actually have to survive for a living. Domestic cats just sit and play and get their food served to them quite literally on a silver platter! But once domesticated, like my Gemma cat who was once a stray, they lose their outdoor skills.
