First of all I appreciate everyone's help! I have gotten so much useful information especially from Stefan, shunra and maekaw. Hope I spelled those right
Anyway momma cat hasn't moved the kittens out of the box since last Saturday. Now it's starting to get really gross. I want to clean it but I still have only touched the kittens not picked them up except returning the one she left behind once. Is it okay that her box is dirty? How can I change it without her getting mad? She isn't mean but sometimes she will growl or hiss when I get near. If I go by the box when she is not near is will run to it fast and cover the kittens with her body. Other times she will let me look and pet them all.
And the white ones still have no color on their face or paws!
