My female cat Missy had kittens they are a week and two days old. She had them outside under my window in an "igloo" bed.
I wish to bring them in soon because the kittens will start to walk and i dont want them coming out of their bed and start running round my backyard and get killed or something, so i rather bring them in where i know they will be safe until i can give them away to good homes.
Problem, Missy is a feral and only recently she has changed an incredible amount. She used to be veryyy scared and easily frightened and didnt trust any human to go near her or anything. She would quickly run off as soon as she heard some one coming round the corner or out the door.. She would hiss at you, she wasnt friendly at all..
Now? now she is completely differnt, she is so loving and affectionate and comes up to me now and lets me pat her and she rubs up against me and comes up to me and says hello each time i go outside..
I think its because over the time of her being here shes realized that no one here harms her and she knows she has it so good here because we feed her and take very good care of her. Shes made herself a home here she doesnt go anywhere.
I once, long time ago brought her in my house (she lets me pick her up) for few mins to see what she does. She didnt like it one bit she was meowing like crazy and was just very confused and scared.
But i think that was then when she was more afraid and not so trusting towards me..
Maybe this time she will be ok especially if her kittens will be with her, what do you think?
I need some suggestions or advises in order how to bring her and the kittens into my house so that i can give them away to good homes and then get her desexed..
Ive got a room here that i can set up for them but i just know that she will go mental probably and be crying like crazy and may take her a while to settle down true?
So how do i handle that exactly and what bout toilet? i heard that you can buy some sort of special litter/urine that you can put in the kitty liter so that she will go and smell it and know its the toilet..
Never done this sort if thing obviously but i love this site because people do give such good replies and advise
So i appreciate it =)
So, what should i do to make the setup more suitable for them?
What do i need to know?
