    We lost one

    They were born on Easter night, so she was about 3 days old. The other three seem to be doing well. All are gaining weight and eating well. They all seem very healthy, so I'm holding out hope.

    We lost one

    We lost one of our babies yesterday afternoon. She was the smallest of the four. We found the mother laying on her, don't know if she smothered, or if there was just something wrong that we didn't know about. The other 3 seem to be doing really well, so we are just going to keep our fingers...

    How Old?

    I feel the need to verify a little here. First off, Snuggles was a small baby when we got her. She was checked by a vet then so that we know she is in good health. Second, I'm not wanting her to have kittens so I can "experience" the birthing process or whatever. I grew up on a farm and have...

    How Old?

    Actually, we want to allow her to have kittens, at least one litter. We have discussed getting her fixed, but have decided not to at this point. We are also aware of how many cats don't have homes, as we have taken in a lot of them. We live on a farm and while all the other cats we have taken...

    How Old?

    I'm just wondering how old a cat should be before she's allowed to get pregnant and have a litter of kittens? We have a cat that was found as a stray and given to us.....we only have an idea of how old she is and we figure close to 8 months, but we're not sure. I'm just curious as to whether...
