We have had our inside cat, Pippin, for almost 4 years. She has always been the only cat. She and I don't get along very well (mostly because she peed on my stuff for years) but the kids and my husband love her a lot. She had bladder stones which she had surgery for in May. She is pretty...
Thank you everyone for all of your help. I supplemented the little fellow for about 5 days, before her refused to take any more and everyone seems to be growing and gaining consistently now.
The kittens are 3 weeks old now and we can finally tell who is who!
We have one kitten who does not...
So I have been weighing the kittens daily and the weights are 8 oz, 7.5 oz, 7 oz, 6.5 oz, 6 ox and 4.75 oz. The little one has been gaining yesterday he was 4.5 and on Monday 4 but he is so much smaller than the biggest kitten. should I be worried about him?
Just wanted to post an update since everyone here was so patient and helpful. All the kittens seem to be doing great! The gray kitten is the biggest, defends his nipple from all interlopers and nurses all the time. At birth he was 4.5 oz and is now 5.5 oz. The other kittens we still can't...
We wouldn't be going away for 2 weeks, we were just wondering if we should take our opportunity now before they are mobile kitties. It would only be a couple of days.
We do have a box but the carrier is where she chose to have the kittens, i didn't know when or how to move them. I thought...
I managed to weigh 4 of them, after 4 they squirmed around so much that we couldn't figure out which had been weighed and which hadn't. 3 oz, 3 1/2 oz, 4 oz, 4 oz. The grey one is one of the 4 oz kitties.
Yes they are very safe in a pet carrier in a detatched laundry room. We were planning to take a short 3 day vacation BEFORE we found out that we were expecting kittens. Would the next 2 weeks be a safe time to go away for a couple of days with an experienced neighbor keeping watch? Or are we...
My cat finally delivered her kittens within the last hour or so. There are 6. I have no Idea WHAT to do now. I put on gloves and picked them up only to change the towel they were laying on which was pretty wet. Decided not to weigh them because they all look almost exactly alike, I wouldn't...
They have arrived! 6 black kitties. Fairly recently I think because everyone is still pretty wet even mama's tail. there was still one placenta left when I found them. This morning at 8 I looked in on her and saw that she was in the pet carrier but didn't investigate, then when I came back at...
