    Need advice for some feral kittens

I know these were outdoors with a mother. They are about 7-8 weeks old. (harder to tell as they are very fluffy) An older gentleman had...

    I am fostering a young cat who was found stuffed in a tiny carrier with another young cat. We are assuming the unneutered male that was with her is the father. She does not look like she is even a year old :(. I hope that everything goes smoothly. She is very affectionate and if I'm right, will...

    I posted a few weeks ago about two foster kittens that appeared to be either part Siamese or Himalayan. They are 7 weeks old now and although their eyes appear to be changing colour, their pupils still glow red when I take photos. In my experience, only blue eyes seem glow red and other colours...

    So little Panda 3 1/2 weeks now. He's been a little sweetheart but overnight has become a biting machine. I know that it's difficult for a singleton to learn that biting and claws hurt when they don't have a sibling to play fight with. He bites mom and mom just licks him. He want to bite...
