Ok, I'm always paranoid I'm going to forget something, and a cross-country trip is never more fun than when traveling with 2 cats. So here's what I have - am I missing anything? We're driving 16 hours straight to Ohio, and will then be in a hotel... - 1 disposable litterbox for the hotel...

Hi all, I have a very sick kitty who we've taken to the vet twice over the past week. They've done a number of bloodwork tests, but seem hesitant to make a diagnosis. Tomorrow we're taking him to a teaching vet hospital (Auburn University) for more extensive testing, but I'd like to get...

The kittens are just over two weeks old now! I finally got my laptop working, so here are a few pictures. My camera is pretty bad and for some reason the little guys just don't want to sit still, but they are supercute! And better (and younger) pics to come when my film gets developed...

I feel a little silly because I keep posting a new thread everytime something happens, and so far everything has been fine.. but I'm worried about the little guys! One of the kittens lost weight! He was 6.35 yesterday and is 6.15 today. The day before yesterday he was 5.65. What I did first...

I am worried mom may be running low on milk, and I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions on what the earliest I could expect the kittens to even attempt to intake some food other than from Mom? I would love to feed them kitten glop but they hate the bottle - by 3-4 weeks would they be able to...

I posted another thread here about the kittens in general, but I am worried about one kitten so I am posting for advice - I went in to weigh them tonight and one of them was crying and crying REALLY loudly. When I picked him up he squealed harder. I stimulated his bottom with a towel because I...

As mentioned in another thread my cat recently had 7(!) healthy kittens, however I've noticed one of them doesn't seem to be nursing as much as the others - I spend several minutes carefully directing his head towards the teat, and he'll finally latch on, but after a minute or two he'll seem to...

Cat is having babies! We took in a stray cat a few weeks ago and discovered shortly thereafter that she was pregnant! (Foolish humans, we thought she was just fat.) So we've been keeping an eye on her and it looks like she's decided to start having kittens at 1am. So far everything is going...

My 4 yr. old female cat has been having a couple odd behaviors lately but otherwise she seems fine (eating, drinking, using the litterbox, friendly, playful, etc). Also, the two things don't seem connected but they are both a little strange. She seems to shiver a lot, even when it's not cold...

Last night my poofy fatty cat who is usually the most laid back of the bunch (5 cats total) started growling and hissing at any of the other cats who came near her. She also would growl at me if I tried to pick her up, although she would let me pet her and wanted to come sit on my lap...
