I'm thinking of getting a couple purebred cats sometime in the near future, for breeding. WHat's the best breed for an amateur? I'm thinking Maine Coon or Bengal, maybe.
Not that I'm an expert, but since my cat just gave birth this morning, I can maybe help you with some of the signs. Pumpkin will probably try to get to a place she knows is safe for the kittens. Alli cried a lot last night, not sure if it was related to the kittens being born, but it might be...
Well, actually, the kitten is here . Alli gave birth to two kittens during the night. By the time we found them around 6:00 this morning, one was pretty much dead. I think it broke its neck, because it wasn't moving much, it just kept opening and closing its mouth, and its head was unstable, it...
My favorite memory is of my second cat, Smokey. Once I went outside with some meat scraps, and all of our cats, about five or six of them, gathered around me, but Smokey actually climbed up my leg, trying to get the meat. It was so funny.
Is a cat who is spayed after having a litter of kittens more at risk to develop cancer than a cat who never has kittens? I know this is kind of off-topic, but I've been wondering if it will benefit Alli much besides the fact that she won't be constantly caring for kittens.
Actually I had thought to find a no kill shelter that I could take the cat to, as I'm having trouble raising money to get my own cat spayed. Does anyone know of a no-kill shelter in central Michigan?
My cat, Alli, is having kittens as I'm sure many of you know by now. I think I actually saw the father. I'm not sure if the cat I saw is a tom or queen, but I'm pretty sure it's a tom, because I saw him around when Alli was in season. I think he's wild, and I'd like to try to capture him and...
I've got it narrowed down to ten names, five of each gender. I can't remember what they are right now, but I'll let you know what I've picked later today

I'm trying to think of good name options for Alli's kittens. I have no idea how many there are, so I'm trying to think of five or six names of each gender. So far I've picked:
Male
Van Gogh
Chaucer
Macbeth
Caesar
Romeo
Colin
But I can't come up with any female names. Any suggestions? And if you...
