Hello Everyone
So long story short my nephew moved in over the summer with his female cat under the condition that she would be fixed. Well lo and behold he never did and I found my male cat (now fixed) mounting her. Several weeks later 5 kittens! Now I did give 2 away to a good home and kept 3 males. The kittens were born November 1st and we are now approaching April in a few days making them 5 months. I told my nephew he needs to get her fixed ASAP and he plans to do it this week.
My question is it seems that mamma is in heat she is walking around meowing and keeps biting the kittens, I am worried that because they are just reaching sexual maturity that something will happen BEFORE she gets fixed this week. Now the kittens seem to be ignoring her playing with each other and trying to nurse from her (which they haven't done in a month or so) but I am nervous as to what may happen when I am not home.
