The breeder said her whole litter was small and she had trouble getting them to gain weight as they should. She had the mother spayed. I believe there were 5 kittens in her litter. She is eating, I haven't seen her drink water, and she urinates in the litterbox. She hasn't defecated on her...

So MY baby was weighed today at the vet and weighs 1.8 lbs. She should weigh at least 3 lbs at 14 weeks. The vet didn't believe she was 14 weeks - but since I got her from a breeder, she figures she's just very very small for her age. Is this ok? Are some cats just small?

Hi all. I brought my new tonkinese kitten home yesterday around 2:30 PM. The car ride was about an hour and a half. She has settled in pretty well - she is playful and doesn't hide, she has eaten about 8 oz of canned food since then (yesterday and this morning) and some dry. She hasn't...

I'm thinking she is going to be "Sky" BTW, I know my siggy is too big I'm just not sure how to resize it in Photobucket - I resize but then the link makes the pic the normal size. Ideas?

Yep, the aqua eyes are a Tonkinese characteristic. He may have Tonk in him somewhere!

I got my baby today. So far, so good! She seems to be settling in. I'm such a nervous mommy though! I don't know how much time to spend with her in "her" room and how much to leave her alone to explore. She is a doll, though. I have a pic thread of her here...

I finally brought my baby home today. She's a platinum point tonkinese. She is 14 weeks old and SO tiny! So far, she has eaten, played, explored, and offered massive love! She is such a purr box! I havent caught her using the litter box, and when I'm not in the room she hides, but other...

I was so excited to get my kitten tomorrow! I have been waiting SO patiently. BUT, the breeder called today and said the kittens had a tummy bug and had gone to the vet today. Vet gave them meds, and she doesn't feel right giving me a kitten that isn't eating. I just hope that she is OK...

Just an update on my own wait - I will pick up my kitten from the breeder on Wednesday (the 11th!) I am so excited!

I am going to try to switch her to EVO dry if she'll eat it (after four weeks as you have suggested) and I bought Wellness pouches, cans, Merrick's and EVO cans for her to try for wet. I was under the impression that I could just start trying wet food (because it is different than dry). Is...

I have this question, too! I'm bringing my kitty home next week from the breeder who is feeding Royal Canin dry and Whiskas packets wet (neither of which I want to continue feeding). Any suggestions would be helpful!

I'm going to see it too!

I have gotten this from MULTIPLE people since I've been excited and waiting on my kitten from the breeder. What they DON'T know is that I had a terrible, scary, expensive, heartbreaking experience with my last cat which was adopted from a shelter. I am terrified of adopting another sick kitty...

I am waiting for my kitten to be old enough to come home with me from the breeder! She was supposed to be spayed yesterday, and I was scheduled to pick her up next Friday the 6th. The breeder told me that she has held off on her spay until June 3rd so that she can get more weight on her. She...

Like many of you, I stay away from sugars and carbohydrates, too. Besides making me gain, they are my trigger foods - foods that trigger me to want to overeat or crave MORE carbs and sugars. I think many people experience this with sugars/carbs. Even my fruit I get at lunch can trigger sugar...

I thought about getting this one but I think I'll wait til my kitten gets older. It looks very cute!

So pretty!

Hmm..how about Moo? I also like Portia, LeeLee, Kiwi, or Oreo.

Neat pic though.

Seriously though, I didn't realize there were people who didn't know that cat's whiskers didn't get cut!
