    Introducing Kittens

    I know I know there are already threads about this, and I've read them plus the sticky and other articles. The info worked for Mama, but the kittens seem to be another story all together. We've had two male neutered cats for over a year now and just acquired a female with a little of kittens...

    Conflicted and need advice

    Thank you for all your advice, I apologize for not replying sooner, I've been helping my MIL with her wedding. Due to that and some other craziness we haven't been able to make any decisions but you have given me a lot to think about. It's possible but if it is she didn't explain it very well...

    Conflicted and need advice

    That's how it feels. I hope I'm wrong and I didn't get the whole story. After I cool off, I'll talk to the aunt myself and figure out whats going on. But right now I'm to upset.

    Kitten Potty Training?

    Thanks for all the advice! We put three boxes in the room and haven't had any more accident. Yay!

    Conflicted and need advice

    Thank you Jenny. What you're saying makes sense. We thought really hard about how many pets we could afford and keep long term. It will take some cut backs on frivolous spending, so we can take them to the vet and spay/ neuter them, but we can do it. I guess I need to take a step back and...

    Conflicted and need advice

    I hope this is an ok place to put this as I couldn't figure out another spot, it was here or the Mother/ kitten forum and a lot of this is... well ranty and I just need some advice. I'm very conflicted right now. We're trying to find homes for the kittens we took in. My husbands aunt knows a...

    Took in stray mom and kitten and have questions

    I know our vet, she'll want to test. It's just her way. Although I'm pretty sure it's just to get more money out of us. I'm willing to pay to have the tests done as long as we get Momma taken care of so she won't give my boys any thing and we can finally let her out of our bedroom.

    Took in stray mom and kitten and have questions

    Thank you for the advice, we were able to get together enough money to take momma to the vet. I will be making an appointment this week hopefully, life's a little crazy. When we brought them in the weather was still fairly cold, so they really didn't have fleas. I've been using a vinegar...

    Kitten Potty Training?

    We have them in our bedroom there's a queen size bed, dressers, catcage, shelves, and all my hubby's stuff in there. We've kitten proofed it so there's nothing they can eat that will hurt them. I'm still learning as I go with these guys so I had to make adjustments as I find problems because...

    Kitten Potty Training?

    We only have a small cage big enough for two cats. It's to crowded they only have free range in the bedroom. There's not enough room for that many boxes either, twos really the max we can fit in there.They were strays to begin with so... I'm not sure what they know and don't.

    Kitten Potty Training?

    It's a big one not sure how big though. Like I said, I already planned on getting another one, hopefully that will help.

    Kitten Potty Training?

    I thought that, and it explains one area. But it's like they are going to that particular area on the other side of the room, it's not an area I see them in regularly. Does that make sense? 6 kittens plus mom, I don't know for sure age but 5-7 weeks is my best guess, and 1 tray we're going to...

    Kitten Potty Training?

    I was told that the kittens would mimic their mom and potty in the litter pan. But I keep finding little poos all over the floor and even on some clothing I had on a low shelf. I wash/scrubbed everything, at first I thought it was an accident I mean babies have accidents, but it keeps happening...

    Took in stray mom and kitten and have questions

    I don't well not to much. Part of me does blame his previous owner though, he was wearing a collar that became hooker over his foreleg and rubbed it raw. When I found him under our trailer it was infected, we actually were able to get that taken care of. What we didn't know and the vet didn't...

    Took in stray mom and kitten and have questions

    Yes exactly that's what my MIL suggested she's been saving cats for a while with her sister who runs a local Animal Charity. Anyway it's what she fed the ones she took it. They also get Friskies Prime Canned Cat Food, 2 cans a day. It's the same diet I've had my boys on since we got them...

    Took in stray mom and kitten and have questions

    A few weeks ago we took in a stray mom and her 6 kittens. She's nursing so I've been making sure she has extra food and water, the kittens are about 5- 6 weeks old and have started taking an interest in regular food canned and kitten chow. But the thing is I'm concerned about the mother having...
