You're going to go through this separation heartache every time your momma cat has a litter you can't afford to look after. Not to mention what the momma goes through physically having that many pregnancies, and filling the shelters with more cats who need homes. Borrow a trap or get a sedative...

Just wondering, did you hear back from your friend at all White Cat Lover?

I'd just like to say I know the original poster in real life, and she really HAS done everything she can for this cat. I redirected her to this site because I forum troll here regularly and I was really hoping someone could help her. Thank you for your reply White Cat Lover, I hope your friend...

Urrgh Im getting cross now because my doctor made me feel like a bad mommy-to-be for not throwing my cats into the street and never seeing them again. I think I might just replace him, now you've all confirmed he was being overly dramatic. Ive been tested for toxoplasmosis immunity and it came...

Just out of interest - why wouldn't you use a net over a crib? I think we'd have the baby in our bedroom when he/she is a newborn, and our cats all sleep on our bed, so ideally, Id like something to keep them off the crib without being kept out of the room..

We keep ours in the bathroom cupboard with a childproof lock on it I never worked out how to get Lyra to stop eating it. The childproof locks are installed all around our house now because I was tired of waking up to emptied cupboards. Furry menances lol

This is a little off-topic, but I like this forum so Im asking here My husband and I are trying for a baby at the moment, so *fingers crossed* I may be pregnant soon. Ive read up about toxoplasmosis, and bought the plastic gloves etc for when Ill be cleaning out the litter box. My 3 kitties are...

Getting a second cat was the best thing we ever did for our first cat. We adopted him when he was 4 weeks old, and (like yours) not well socialized. In fact, to this day he's the most skittish of our 3 cats. However bringing our 2nd cat home brought him out of his shell. It took around a month...

Wow she is gorgeous!! Thats a fab colour shes got there Good luck with the kitties!

I brought a kitten home last night thats only 5 weeks old today (I know they should be left with mom for a few more weeks, but the situation prevented it). Now she's home with me though, I want to make sure she's getting everything she needs. My other 2 cats were 12 weeks and 16 weeks old when I...

Our cats are both OBSESSED with lying on keyboards too. We have 2 laptops and 2 PCs running near enough all day long and they bounce between keyboards to try and find one to sit on. Id love an answer to this too, but I suspect shutting the cats in another room while you work, or swinging a Da...

Im 23 years old and currently waiting on my newest kitten to be weaned off her mommy!! Shes 16 days old today and ALREADY it seems like Ive been waiting a lifetime!!! I can see why he cried. Its sad missing all the socializing and wobbly stages of the kittens first weeks. I wish I could've taken...

I sent you a PM Hope you find your answer.

I went through the same worries when I brought my youngest home. Id say let them have run of the house together. If there was going to be real violence you'd have seen it by now. Sometimes my 2 look like they're killing each other, but then they just bounce back for more!! Kitties like play...

Thanks, I wasn't sure an 'all stage' was suitable, it always sounded like a bit of a con to me. As for Hills, the vet said no to our other cats eating it. You mention feeding them bones? What kind? Cooked/raw - clean or with meat? I think he'd like that, he's a chewer. Plus it would give my...

Hi! I have 2 cats, an 18 month old with teeth issues who has been ordered by the vet to eat a prescription dry kibble (Hills). I also have a kitten (8 months) who is a little fat for her size, and greedy, so in the same vets trip my vet said to stop wet food feeding in my house all together...

I havnt actually tried it... someone else might be able to fill you in! One of the reasons I LOVE it so much though is that it eliminates so much odour. Ive never had a problem with smelly trash, or a smelly box. Believe me... I DO have smelly cats!!! The litter does a wonderful job of taking...

To Tamgirl99, no I havnt tried NM or any other corn based litters. For the longest time I was a Fresh step crystals fan, but on getting a second kitten it was getting too soggy too quickly and cost a fortune. The first alternative I tried was Feline Pine and I settled with it because Im so happy...

I changed to feline pine pellets around 2 months ago and i LOVE it. So much cheaper than crystals, it doesnt need a full change for 3 weeks or so (depending on how many cats you have I guess, I have 2). It was hugely different to the fresh step crystals I was using previously, but neither cat...

My kitten had coccidia when we adopted her, and she quickly gave it to our resident cat The treatment is very easy to administer, very cheap to get, and our vet put both cats on a 3 week course. 5 weeks in, our kitten STILL had problems, so she went on another 2 week course. The eggs are hard...
