    Unsure if I should keep kittens

    Thank you! I have so much respect for people who help cats and controlling the population. It’s largely so thankless. I just remind myself that if I’ve picked good homes the kittens will be happy in the long run and so will the humans.

    Unsure if I should keep kittens

    That’s good to hear. There was another bonded pair and I didn’t rehome them together. I felt kind of desperate to find good homes and the woman who took the first kitten was very back and forth on taking the other one and eventually decided not to.

    Mastitis and continued nursing

    I have a queen who is (guessing) less than one year old who just had a litter of 5 on June 30th. I took her and her kittens to a vet yesterday and she has an eye infection, was constipated and has mastitis. They told me I should wean the kittens and bottle feed. They didn’t mention anything...
