Thanks for the advice. They usually wake up every 2 hours to eat, but I'll let them sleep up to 3 hours before I wake them for feedings. They have been eating between 8-12 ml depending on how long they slept. This has been working well for the little ones. Luna was 6.3 two days ago and now...

My oldest (turning 15 this month) sleeps next to me so I always great her with "hi Kit Kat" and pet her for a few minutes. The other two run around the house all night get so they get "hi baby" or "oh what a sweet lil Peach" whenever they wake up.

Thanks for all the advice and resources. I bought a scale yesterday so I could keep up with their weigh gain/any potential problems. The kittens weighted 6.3 and 6.4 oz each. This morning they each weigh 7. Both of their bellies are round and full now (they were skinny little things when I...

Hey everyone, this is kind of long, but I'm basically looking for any advice or words of encouragement. A stray cat gave birth in my back yard two weeks ago. I provided her a cat shelter (waterproof bin), food and water so she could do her thing, but the weather here has been terrible. It has...

Hello, I have noticed my nine month old cat loosing due in a couple of places and it has me worried. She has always had very little hair around her mouth, but now I feel she has lost some as well as around her eyes. It is nothing noticeable, but as a protective cat-mom I can tell. She has had a...

I had a tricky flea infestation a few months back and used revolution to cure it. I've gone through so many brands, but this is the only one that doesn't make my cat sick while completely getting rid of the fleas. I let my cats roam free so I never see any fleas fall off so I am unsure about...

Hi everyone, my two cats got spayed two days ago and are required to take .75ml liquid antibiotics twice a day. I've been having trouble getting one of my cats to take everything, but I know she needs to get her entire dosage. The cat, Peaches, came to me after living a year on the streets and...

Hello everyone. I currently have three cats (one was a foster feral who has decided she belongs with me) and I just invested in new breakaway collars for them. Two of them have normal, bell-free collars, but my new indoor kitten, London, is getting curious about the outdoors so her collar has a...

I've decided to home Dublin and Havana to my mother's friend. The kittens won't be ready until May, but I prefer to have homes in line before that time comes. My grandmother agreed that the Dublin would be in better care at the other home. The women spoils her current cat as if it is her baby. I...

Peach and Havana London after a tough battle with a toy Little gray Havana, my little drama queen Peaches

I had a forum here before, but after losing a kitten I have decided to continue documenting my kittens' journey as they find their forever homes. I enjoy the community feel of this site and the knowledge of those who have experienced more litters than I have. Along the way I know I am going to...

I'm glad you got mom and the kittens to safety. Cats can definitely tell when you are trying to help them, so I wouldn't be surprised if she knew too. I am currently dealing with my second experience in this and while drastically different, there are a few similarities. If you have any resident...

I made a little cross for her grave site. This is where it all started with Peaches and where I spent hours feeding and getting to know the cat for six months before she trusted me enough to come inside. On this dirt Peaches was safe from the hot sun, cold breeze, other cats, and had enough food...

In the most tragic twist of all, I took Paris's body and wrapped her in the cloth and placed her in her basket. I put the basket off to the side and elevated from everything else while I found a place in my garage to keep her cold until I could dig the hole. I walked back out to grab the basket...

she passed away last night. I knew it was coming, but when I went to check on her this morning and found her little cold, stiff body I couldn't take it. I removed her from the other kittens and am planning on bury her. I just feel like I failed. She was so little from the start and mom had began...
