We came back from a holiday 2.5 months ago and saw a whole bunch of kittens and assumed someone dumped them in a box while we were away. They disappeared overnight from our property. There has never been a mother cat around here at all and i'm sure of it as we live in country area.
Before that maybe a month or few weeks prior i saw a male adult cat white coat and blue eyes howling during the night and 3 weeks ago found a little black kitten meowing and hanging around our property. It was malnourished as stomach was larger compared to size of skinny body.
Been feeding it royal canin kitten biscuits as kitten looks to be 8 weeks old or older and he's been eating it fine. It wants to enter our house and i have bathed it twice no problems and has been playing with my 1.5 yr old male cat.
We are considering adopting it and leaving biscuits out for the white male adult cat as its still kind of afraid but will not run away when i put biscuits outside.
Just wanna know how long has it taken people to train kitten strays to use litter tray when they are around 8 weeks old?
This kitten has seen my male cat use litter and haven't seen any fleas on this kitty. At night its afraid to stay out and really cries like ita chosen our home to live in and loves my adult kitties so i'm torn between taking it in or leaving it with its dad or surrogate dad.
The adult male cat could be a surrogate that saw this kitten and showed compassion and took it under its wing, kitten is really friendly and lovey dovey.. This kitten will not be able to defend itself outside against ferals..
We will take the kitten to vet for desexing and health check etc. Just wanna get peoples opinions on if they had any issues with litter training and spraying on furniture etc..
