    Itchy Skin Disorder

    I've noticed that my two 14 week old kittens have been scratching a lot lately. I ran a flea comb through them and soon discovered that fleas were the cause of all the scratching. Now, one of them has a scab under his neck and I was wondering what would be the best way to solve this problem...

They still are drinking lots of water and eating a their fare share of food. If they have to go to the vet, is it ok to wait untill Saturday? This is when they will be...

    Kitty Gas

    I feed my two 8 week old kittens Purina Kitten Chow® brand food. Sometimes, I soften it with alittle water, but most of the time they eat it dry. I've notice, shortly after they finish a meal, their stomachs begin to gargle/bubble. I can hear it- it's quite loud. It's almost as if they have...

    When should I cut kitties claws for the first time?

    They are 8 weeks old. Is it too soon to trim their claws? I dont have a problem with how they are now, but I've read that it should be done as part of a regular grooming routine.

    Is this unusaual?

    A few hours ago, my eight week old kittens returned home from getting their first vaccinations. Lairy, one of my two boys, came home, ate, and started to sleep. He's still asleep. While, his brother, Iven, came home and instantly demanded me to play with him. They usually do everything...

    how much do i feed my kittens?

    Most kittens will stop eating when they've had enough. But, some cats will continue eating as long as food is available. I just keep a dish of dry food out in he kitchen for them. If you notice that they do nothing BUT eat, then you may have to prepare scheduled meals. Just make sure that they...

    Brotherly Love...?

    I pretty sure that kittens love to play fight, infact, thats what my two boys do all day long! But, sometimes, they appear to be extremely rough with one another. I may even hear a squill from one of them. -as if he was in pain. Is this normal? Is there a point in which I should "break up"...

    Most confortable temperature.

    I've read that cats can be confortable in temperatures as high as 125º F. But, I want to know what temperature is ideal for two kittens, 7 1/2 weeks of age. Sometimes I fear its too warm, so I turn on the AC. Sometimes, I fear its too cool- so I turn the AC off..

    "FLEAS" help me!

    I've just brought two little 7 1/2 week old kittens home last night. And this morning, as I was spending some quality time with them, I noticed a flea crawling through one of the kitten's fur. I'm kicking myself over it! I know that blood loss from fleas can be deadly to kittens this age... What...

    Whistling = Affection?

    Back when I had my 1 year old female kitty, I would sometimes find myself whistling- and she'd suddenly meow/rub against my leg as if she were in heat. When I would stop whistling, she'd return to her aloof self. Why would Whistling make her act this way?
