I'm not sure how long you have had them, but I worried about the pooping with my most recent orphans too. I think sometimes it just takes some time for their little bodies to adjust to the formula. I didn't get the first poop until 24 hours and some close to 2 days, after that, it was very...
Awwwwwww...SO CUTE! Love how they are all different.
I just successfully weaned FIVE bottle babies I've had since about one week. So, I'm in no hurry to start that again!
Have fun with them!
Awwww, they are so cute. Sorry about the loss of the other two.
I agree, two girls and very cute at that!!
Sometimes the mom does bail. That's what happened with mine. I have 5, they were found spread all around my back yard. 2 in one corner, 1 way across the other side in a bush and 1 in...
Maybe I will try that then. Aunt had a dog with bloat, vet recommended a raised dish, but then we found a lot of info. saying NOT to raise the dish, so we've both been weary with all the animals. Argh...you just never know what to do. So frustrating. Saw a super cute personalized raised dish on...
I have never heard of this either. Perhaps they should double check the xray. I totally understand why you are scared and worried, who wouldn't be. Hopefully it will be a lot less serious then anyone thinks - good luck. Please follow up on what happened.
I have one that eats too fast and sometimes vomits. I have heard mixed feelings on raising the bowl but haven't tried it yet. Have any of you had success with this?
Also, anyone try the brake-fast bowl? Similar concept to putting golfballs in the dish, etc?
Do you think maybe there is something outside that he doesn't like, perhaps another cat? That could account for him wanting to go out and having a litterbox adversion.
I do hope he's okay healthwise. Good luck.
Glad the bandaid passed. I'd be more concerned about that too. You never know, but I'd like to think that if the bandaids are for KIDS that they'd contain non-toxic adhesive.
I was scrolling through to see if anyone suggested a litterbox in the closet and I see that it has come up already. I think that makes the most sense. While it may not be the most ideal, it's worth a try to put a litterbox in the closet if he's making a litterbox out of the closet anyway. Good...
I have been trying to figure this out too. I have one, maybe two I am unsure of. When they were REALLY little, they both had fur that was very different. Almost kinky looking like brillo or something. Now, the fur looks a wee bit longer and the one has very silky smooth fur, while the others...
A few of my orphans had very squinty eyes for a several days. Maybe that's what you are experiencing. And, when they were all open, there eyes were SO dark they looked black.
I was told average weight gain, ball park, is about a pound per month. We're no where close to that. Mine would gain, lose, gain, lose, hold steady, lose and finally are now slowly, but steadily gaining.
Those kittens are sooo cute. You may be biased, but you're also right, they are just...
I also did mention alternatives, like a tall & sturdy post and nail trimmings. I NEVER told her she was horrible. I think you need to reread my post before throwing stones. I am glad that you don't seem to have experienced these problems with your own declawed cats. I wish that was the case for...
That is awesome news. It's easy to become frustrated when you are not used to something, my current BF was easily annoyed by some of the behaviors of my dog (she has separation anxiety- and CAN be a bit overwhelming), but once they get to love the animal and understand the reasons behind certain...
Icklemiss, I don't feel my post was vinegar at all. I was dead serious. Quite honestly, I'm not trying to catch bees and that expression is so overly used on forums. If I sugar coated it, it wouldn't have the same effect.
I'm not judging her, I spoke the way I did because I DID IT FOR THE...
That sucks. I totally feel your pain, like I said I have a litter of 5 and they have already cost me about $700 in med bills alone. It's so unfair that other people can be irresponsible and leave the burden to those that have the heart big enough to pick up the pieces. That doesn't necessarily...
