Hi everyone, We took in a stray cat a few months that was pregnant. She's had her kittens now and they're about 10 weeks old. Now we need to spay the mum. Her surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning but she's been in heat for a couple of days and I'm reading around online I'm not sure if...

My cat had 3 kittens 27 days ago. They've all gained weight well. Then today, one of them lost 5 grams. It's the first time one of them lost weight. I weighed her again a few hours laster and she'd lost another 5. I've seen her feeding lots of times and she's still active and playing like...

My kittens are 24 days old now, and I think that means it's time to worm them. What I'd love to know is when to worm them and exactly what kind of treatment I should use? I don't want to use the wrong thing...

Thanks for all your replies! When they were first born I felt really sure about their sexes, then the past couple of days began to have my doubts. Now you've cleared it all up for me! I hate it when you think you know the sex of an animal and then find our you're wrong and then keep getting all...

Hi everyone. My rescued semi-stray cat had 3 kittens 18 days ago, and I'm still not sure of their sexes. This is the only one I've named so far, because I wasn't sure if I was keeping or rehoming the others. This is Sweep and he likes to sleep: And here's a rear shot of Sweep, and I always...

He is a pretty long haired kitten. The other 2 in the litter and much shorter haired and maybe that's why their eyes opened a lot easier. The one with the problems, he shows no signs of infection or illness. When his eyes are open they look big, bright, and clear. He just struggles to open them...

Yes, it's a clear gel. I looked up using it on kittens. Some people say it works miracles, others say never use on eyes...

I have Neosporin. Is that the same as Polysporin?

What an amazing story. Seeing Ben in those final pictures is a real miracle when you think how he struggled to start with! I'll miss his updates, and if I'll miss him, can't imagine how much you will!

My cat had 3 kittens 17 days ago. One of them has a problem with his eyes. They stick shut when he sleeps. If I wash them with damp cotton wool they open up right away and he looks fine. There's no pus or anything else coming from the eye. Sometimes there's a tiny bit of crust near the eye...

My cat had kittens one week ago. For the first 2 or 3 days I only touched them to weigh them and to gently touch them while they were with their mum. Since then I've been increasing the time I touch and hold them. Now I can hold them for several minutes, even letting them sleep on my hand for a...

What was amazing was that I wasn't sure when she mated, but I estimated that she'd have them on April 1st and she did! They've been a little slow to gain weight. Not sure if it's a problem yet. The 1st kitten gained nothing on day 1 but gained 14 grams on day 2. The 2nd kitten out gained 4...
