Parasite positive! I received a call from the vet today. Grayson and Robin have tested positive for parasites. She advised that I pick up the medicine needed to treat them. 2 ml the 1st day, then 1 ml for the following 10. So, after work I stopped there and purchased the meds. They want to...

The last photo of the evening as they had a long day and are getting sleepy.

They seem very comfortable now!

Their play area arrived today.

Don't worry, I remembered to take the tag off.

Or neutered... lol.

I just meant he's the adult male. He is spayed.

Update: I managed to get all 3 to the vet. I didn't take pics there because I was just focused on making sure no one escaped. I do have a large carrier that opens from the top so I was able to get Dooley (the tom cat) into it. I felt a little bad because I had to trick him. I gave him treats...

*wiping away tears* Thank you for that...:hugs:

Thank you for the articles. They were helpful! My husband bathed the kittens but it was helpful to now know to start at the head and work down. Fleas seem to be crafty! :devilish: I naively thought that because they were in cold temperatures (10*F, -12*C) any possible fleas would not survive...

Fleas!! Well we didn't see anything the 1st day but we sure do now on them! I did a quick google search and saw to use a dish soap to wash them. We had Palmolive dish soap in the house, so we used that. We also stripped all towels, etc. that they were laying on in order to wash them. I don't...

Norachan, thank you for your words of kindness and encouragement. As I read through your post I also laughed at your assessment of my situation, 1 cat and 2 kittens...no problem! I can't fathom how you care for 22, my word...just incredible! You are so fortunate to have crossed paths with all...

Thank you for replying but what is S/N? I am new to the boards and don't understand all the jargon yet! *smile*

My indoor cat isn't up to date, for sure. He was a capture after the owner threw him on the street. I'm sure he was most likely abused as he didn't let us come anywhere near him for months and if you had something in your hand he would freak out. I think his former owner use to hit him with...

Thank you for the kind words and advice aliceneko. I think I am leaning toward keeping them both...my husband definitely wants to keep them. I found an indoor/outdoor pet playpen cage online. I think that will be their home when we are away from home as I want to make sure they stay safe from my...

Yes. They are adorable. :) When working, should I let them roam in a bedroom with the door closed, as I have another adult male cat? Should I get a large cage? So unsure...??? It seems inhumane to keep them in a box when I'm not home. I will pick up the dry food today. They are getting more...

Thank you for the advice! I am sending my husband off to the store now. We only have classic Fancy Feast in the house, so we will need to get kitten specific wet food (?), the aluminum pan and non clumping litter. I am just trying to bone up on what kittens need and their care. I hope I can get...

Thank you Norachan for your reply! I just gave them the paste and they are RAVENOUS! Forget licking it off my fingers, they almost took my fingers off! They ate one small can between the both of them. Just....wow. I guess I need to research kitten care now. One we have named Grayson because...

Thank you for your reply maggiedemi. When we brought them in the house they were ice cold, just freezing. If I could learn how to syringe feed I would not mind taking one in, my place is just too small for 3 cats...but I can't see removing them from each other. It seems that they need to be...
