my question is mum is a really skitty cat - she has never really trusted no one we took her in after taking her off some children that had found her at roughly 4 weeks old so therefore assuning she was a wild kitten the only person she will come to is me and that is at a push she spends most of her time under my bed and that is where she gave birth to the kittens and my question is what is the best was to socialise the kittens if i cant get her to come out i have tryed bringing the babies downstairs 2 at a time to get them used to being handled but all they do is cry and this is distressing mum who sits upstairs and yams untill i put them back i really dont want to have these kittens unsocialised ir skitty like thier mum but i am now at a loss as of what to do she is getting spayed as soon as the kittens are weaned thanks in advance
