    Introducing 3 kittens

    Thanks for all the advice. Any suggestions on separating mama away from her babies? Like I've said, babies are about 5 months now and they're in the room with her but my girlfriend is taking mama at end of May, beginning of June. Worried about mama and babies not handling the separation well

    Introducing 3 kittens

    I don't have a screen door. Was going to have husband make one but was thinking the baby gates would be easier to do? All of the cats are fixed except my resident kitten. As for feeding them. My resident cats have a routine and it may be hard to feed them all at one time so I was going to try...

    Medication administration

    Thanks for advice but won't they foam at mouth like mama did with the drontal when they try to chew the pill pocket? I did get the pill pockets, salmon flavored plus some pill paste, bacon flavored. Going to try that.

    Medication administration

    After having mama and babies spayed and neutered last Thursday I got some Drontal tabs since I had seen some tape worms. Got the pill in mama with some difficulty but cannot capture the kittens to give them the pills. Grabbed one by scruff and he freaked out. The boys don't like being touched...

    Spay and Neuter Questions

    Had mama and babies spayed and neutered last Thursday. Kitten that was spayed her belly has a lot of bruising. Incision site looks good. Should I be overly concerned with the bruising? Anything else I should be looking for?

    Feral kitten and hands

    I may have to try a petter with these males. I can pet Boots, sometimes like if he isn't paying attention when he's eating but as soon as he sees it is my hand he quickly turns around. Maybe the petter would work for Nugget. He seems like he wants to get close but is very skittish. Any more advice?

    Frustrated help

    Sassy seems to be pretty close to mama kitty and I don't want to give her up. Hate to separate them from mama but I have 4 other cats in home.

    Frustrated help

    Thanks for advice. Mama and 3 babies, Sassy, Boots and Nugget all go for spay and neuter on March 24th. Will having them spayed and neutered help with the socialization?
