hi everyone. so i recently took in a stray cat and her two sister which were born in my front yard. They're other sister was found at 8 weeks old with wounds and larvae in her neck and was easy to catch since she was ill. Anyway! I was only now able to catch the other two. It took forever to gain their trust. Unfortunately one was pregnant. I will get to the point eventually I promise . Well now the kittens are 10 weeks old but they're still nursing. Not all the time but more than they should. My vet said I cannot have momma fixed until kits are weaned, Is this true? She is currently in heat and howling every night. I keep her in my garage with the kittens . Since she's in heat should I be afraid of her attacking them? I've tried to separate them but she goes bonkers and stresses to where she wont eat. I have no clue what to do. I can't separate them long enough for her milk to dry up and she's driving me insane with the crying.I feel so bad for her. Does being in heat stress them out? This is my first experience with cats and now I have three adults (the other two sisters are spayed ) And 5 kittens !
