Hi, I'm new here but I've been searching this forum for the past few months since I figured out my cat was pregnant. So here's what's going on, she had 5 kittens on the 30th of May so they are now almost 13 weeks old. We rehomed 4 of them at 8 weeks old and all 4 of those were eating dry and wet food at that time(although one didn't start until a few days before they were rehomed, and thankfully they went to new homes in pairs). But the one we kept refuses to eat cat food. She won't touch the dry food, everytime I put new dry food down she runs over to it and smells it but then walks away. The same with wet food, she meows for it when I'm putting it in her bowl(so does mama so I think that's where she learned it from! Ha.) but again she just smells it and walks away, very rarely she will eat a few bites but then seems to lose interest.
But, my question is, is it okay for her to still be just only nursing at 13 weeks, will mama wean her when she thinks the time is right? Or should we get involved and separate them for awhile? Could she be not wanting to eat because of the other 4 kittens being gone?
Thanks everyone!
