    Help! Mother left the 5 wk old kittens...

    I realized that the runt of the litter doesn't eat nearly as much as the other babies so I gave it KMR in a bottle and it drank it like crazy. I gave all the kittens, except Chris-he's a big big boy and had completely weaned his mama already, milk in a bottle and they all drank a whole bottle...

    Help! Mother left the 5 wk old kittens...

    Okay, I've got my six kittens and no mom anymore. Some of you may remember me from just a couple of weeks back. Let me explain the story a little to fill you guys in. Holstein was a stray that showed up, we brought her in during her pregnancy, and she had her litter. Well, she was always a great...

    Feral cat outside abandoned a kitten...

    I can't get her inside. She is terrified of me and won't allow me anywhere near her. I've tried several times to get her in here. She's just like her mom, totally wild. She is eating well now, but whines still. Oddly enough I saw the mom at the backside of the property yesterday, but she won't...

    Tabby cat chased a bear up the tree...

    I looked to see if there was a forum for something like this but didn't see one so forgive me if this isn't allowed Mods. I saw this posted on AOL News just now: Tabby Cat Chases Bear Up Tree, Twice Jack, a 15-pound orange-and-white cat, watches as the bear waits for an opening to flee...

    Kittens won't drink any KMR....

    I wanted to add that the kitten food is always available. It's just the soft that I limit. Is that okay?

    preg. cat eating dog food?

    It's bad for them. Here is what I found: http://cats.about.com/od/catfoodfaqs...oodforcats.htm Q. If you feed cats dogfood, can it cause them to go blind? I know it's a strange question, but I've read that dog food is harmful for cats. It looks and smells much like cat food and my cats seem...

    8 week old's feet almost as big as his mama's

    I was wondering about this myself. My one kitten Chris has huge paws, twice the size of the other kittens. I think he'll be big. He's the biggest kitten period.

    Remember my concern???

    Is it keeping it's legs straight out behind it? My kittens are 1 week and 3 days and move around real low to the ground naturally, but they do use their back legs. I've never had baby kittens before so I don't know if that is normal or abnormal to be honest. Sorry I'm not much help. I hope your...

    What are these markings called? pics

    Allie, let me ask you something. On that one site it said that calicos are very tempermental. Is that true? That worries me a little being that I have four children. Anybody else with calicos please respond too. Stormy is one of the ones that is and we are keeping her. So I'm curious if she's...

    Okay, based on what I just read that is in the above post I think Skittles is a tabby and white. Which is what my kitten Chris is.

    What are these markings called? pics

    I have learned today that torties ARE calicos, but the ones called calicos are technically the ones with patches of orange/red , white, and black or blue. Here is something that is very helpful on striped cats: A true tricolor must have one of its colors derived from the red gene -- either red...

    What are these markings called? pics

    See this kitten.....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Kaka.JPG .see how all the colors are mixed together in its patterns? This is a tortie. A calico is a kitten that has it's orange/red spots without colors all through it, the same as it's other colors. Nothing is all stripped together like...

    What are these markings called? pics

    Well if you read the article up there it says patches of color that is not mixed in. I figure this means the mixed in spots, not the all mixed up color like the torties show. So I don't think your's is a calico because the red is blended in and not in patches. Does that make sense?
