We've basically resolved on keeping Piper and Poppy indoors. I know if we give them to the animal shelter they will be adopted separately, and left outdoors.
One thing is - being indoors, and siblings, will they be more acceptant of other cats? For the short period of one night that we had...
We are moving to our new house in about 2-3 weeks. I am concerned about Piper and Poppy. Our current house is a 1 story, but our new is a 2 story and the top story overlooks the loft, leaving a big gap in the bottom of the railing. will the kittens fall down?? It would definitely kill them if...
We've had Piper and Poppy for 9, 10 weeks so far. The issue is Coriander hates them.... i don't believe this that cats are social!! Whenever she sees them she goes ballistic. Hissing, snarling. Poppy is very protective of Piper and will go right at it. I guess Coriander might feel alienated...
So we are considering adopting Piper and Poppy together. They were found in an abandoned car with a dead sibling at 1 week old, so they've been bottlefed the last 8 weeks. We also have Coriander, who despises them....... I wanted Coriander to be an indoor cat. My mom is very adamant about having...
Just kiddin. I was at the fairgrounds today when a girl came in, apparently 3 4-ish week old kittens were found. So we're fostering them until Wednesday or so because the shelter is closed till then. Pics! all boys
About 4 weeks old, very playful.
I took them out on the deck today. I'm trying to teach them to walk with something controlling them, which ATM is just a leash around the neck... considering we will probably keep Piper and she will be indoor as well as a 4-H cat, I'd like her to be harness trained.
Illustrating Piper lovely...
About 5 days ago Fina went missing. If we lived in a suburban area we would put up fliers; but we live right next to woods. Once my mother was walking back there and she heard coyotes howling a few yards away. Back to the subject... fina was my first real cat. I got her 5 years ago. She was...
Ever since her near death experience (-1 life ) she's so much better. She's regularly pooping and using the box sometimes, she's 10x more playful as well. They just hit 6 weeks. Poppy is 1.4 lbs as of today and Piper is 1.1, so the progress is definitely getting better. Not quite there, but...
Right as you know Piper and Poppy are orphans. Well, Sunday night Piper threw up twice. I thought OK, she probably just has a fish allergy as I fed her some fish kitten food. She was okay and frisky afterwards. So yesterday, Monday, we ran out of KMR. The nearest place were out til wednesday and...
Piper is beginning to eat solid food. Actually, she loves it, and whenever she sees me licks to see if I'll give her any... she cleaned out a 3 oz can in only 2 days, so I have to get some more. I'm not going to call it weaning as I'd rather she didn't switch to solid food, much as her sucking...
