We currently have 5 4-5 month old kittens. They were all brought in from our yard (4 feral, one stray) - all are pretty socialized but not 100%. 2 males and 3 females. How should I divide them, assuming I can find home(s)? They are all fixed. Both males are pretty snugly, so I'd like to keep...
I have been telling myself all along that if things didn't work out, I could put them back out with their mom. Of course, that's a dumb thought because I didn't know what I was talking about. Mom, who comes here at night for food, no longer remembers them. Just 20 minutes ago the sliding door...
Thanks for that honest advice. I will start trying harder to find homes for 2 of the girls. Do you think it'd be weird to take a video of how 'friendly' they can be to show people? I mean, it took a long time for them to warm up to us, but it won't take them THAT long to warm up to a new...
Three girls and 2 boys. I like the boys best. There is one girl I think I like best and the other 2 could go, but I'm not sure how on earth I could find someone to adopt them when they act the way they do. They are friendly enough during their 'sleepy' part of day, but they're not cuddly by...
Thanks - that is disappointing. I was hoping since they were only 4-5 months old that they could accept him. Well, I guess only time will tell. They don't seem to be ganging up or being too agressive - could be worse, I guess. They're just not being nice. I don't even know how I'm ever...
I locked the new kitten up over night in the dog crate in the cat room, but other than that, he's been out and free in there with the other 4 kittens since yesterday morning. This morning the feral kittens seem to STILL have a huge bug up their @%#%^ toward the new kitten. I thought at first a...
This boy cat hangs out sometimes with another feral that hangs around our house. I got some pics of him today because he really looks like his ear is tipped (?) but when he got up and walked away, HELLO, quite a big bulge down there. I know they don't remove the scrotum but it looks pretty...
I've been using Fresh Step now and I love it! :) The stuff I tried first was little tiny balls, so I think that's why it tracked *so* badly. But now I'm loving the clumping litter! :)
We have a sunroom that is closed off so I've been using that as the kitten room. Over the past couple of weeks I've been opening the door to allow them to start to explore the house and 'meet' the dog. None have done more than look at the dog from across the room, and 'luckily' for the...
MsAimee, that is kind of my general attitude, too. I'm just so tired of all the dogs that people around here don't even bother to tie up in their yard or keep an eye on. I walk my dog daily and right now there are 2 houses that I'm 'on guard' when I walk by with aggressive dogs that aren't on...
Could be (that it was a pet) but I understand why if it were a pet, why the person hasn't gone around asking about the kitten. My one neighbor I told about the kitten didn't know a thing about it. I only have one other neighbor on my road and the other people are all pretty far away. But...
