Hi, It has been a while since i lasted posted on here. I have a small question. Our kittens left for their new homes 4 weeks ago today but Dee Dee's nipples are still swollen. Is this normal? How long does it take for them to return to normal size? Or will they never be that small...

hi, panic over!!! he tucked into some mashed up kitten food last night. and several times today. He will only eat it off of a spoon but at least its a start. I am very relieved!! He has a large appetite aswell

hi guys, thought i'd give you an update. The situation is still the same with my kittens, i'm not sure whether to be concerned or not? The little boy still isnt interested in food at all but he will lap lactol replacement milk from a medicine syringe. He will drink that quite readily but...

The tabby female has a home but the little black male doesnt yet. I wish i could keep them both. I didnt expect to feel like this about them.

Cats can have phantom pregnancies but i dont know enough to give you any credible advice im afraid, hopefully someone with more experience or advice will pick this thread up and advise you better. Maybe she is displaying symptoms in sympathy for your pregnant girl?? I'm sorry i cant be more help!

yes they are!! Ornaments and pictures are flying everywhere. They are soo gorgeous though. They are 6 weeks old today and they both use the litter tray which i find adorable (sad huh!) . The tabby girl eats once a day quite readily where as the black male isnt interested at all. He will...

awwwwwwwww those pictures are fantastic, what gorgeous babies they are. I can't believe they are already 6 weeks old. Saying that i cant believe ours are 5 weeks old today!! The time flies. They are beautiful!!!

They both use the litter tray, I have seen Gem wee and poo in it but i've only seen Oscar wee. I will try the food and milk replacement idea like Tasha suggested and hopefully that will kick start his appetite. These kittens will be staying with me till they are 12 weeks old so plenty of time...

they'll be 5 weeks tuesday

Hi, Our kittens have started to eat small amounts of mushed up food now. Well i say 'kittens' but really its only Gem our tabby female thats eating. She only eats once a day but she really tucks in where as Oscar the black male isnt interested at all. He'd much rather have his mum's milk...

She isnt the only one filling out!!! Momof3rugratz that baby bump is gigantic!! Your due date must be soon???

I can't give you alot of advice unfortunately, but i would either call your vet immediately or take the mum and all the kittens to the vet's surgery right away. That really doesn't sound right to me. sorry i cant be of more help.

Its not nice and a little stressful to be honest, the weather has been nice and now the clocks have gone forward the evenings are lighter for longer, a tiny part of me feels mean for keeping her in but of course the other choice isnt an option!! I forgot to mention that the dog won't leave her...

Hi everyone, Dee Dee's kittens will be 4 weeks old tomorrow and they are thriving but i have a little concern. Although Dee Dee is still a fantastic mum she seems to spend more time away from the kittens and her feeds with them done seem to be for as long. Also she is crying to go outside...

I got Dee Dee when she was 7 weeks old because the family she came from were going through a bitter divorce and they were all being neglected. She had suckling issues because of it. Firstly she did it on my daughters forehead and arm which my daughter found hilarious, then she settled with the...

I absolutely agree, of course all cats should be neutered because its in the upmost importance for your cat's health and well being. In the Uk you can only qualify for a neuter discount voucher if you are on benefits and a spay is expensive. I AM NOT saying of course that this is an excuse to...

i have to say that i found this thread a little uncomfortable to read and its a shame because Jeremy only wanted some advice from what is on the whole a fantastic and informative forum. Everyone is indeed entitled to their opinion and of course everyone has different views which is what i find...

i said this with my Dee Dee when she was pregnant, one day she'd be big the next she seemed normal again. But her nipples always remained swollen. I would be inclined to think like Tasha its possible she might not be pregnant at all and maybe she had just had a litter not long before you took...

Dee Dee's mammory glands were really full all the way upto the day she gave birth but i was never able to express any. In the last 2 hours before delivery her milk really started to come in. So you are right Tasha it wasnt reliable for me either

what a wonderful ending. I'm so glad that you managed to keep all three together, i would've had trouble seperating them aswell and as i always say whats one more cat!!! I guess you'll never know what happened to the little black kitten, lets hope he found a loving home aswell. Guess you'll...
