I foster for a cat/kitten rescue. I saw the pictures of these six-week-old kittens and knew I had to save them from being put down. I picked them up yesterday and the man at the shelter told me they would need a lot of work. They were very scared and huddled together in the carrier. When I got them home I left them alone in the bathroom for a while. One of them would not come out of the carrier. Later I tried picking it up by the scruff and see if it would let me hold it. Well it didn't. It hissed and ran off into a corner. After that I went to work. Later I tried petting the same one (I put long sleeves on lol) and it let me while hissing. When I got closer to its face it spit and swatted at me. After that I left them alone. Today I have gone in to feed them but have not tried petting or holding them. I don't want to stress them out. It's so pitiful how they squeeze themselves into any corner to get away from me. I want to get them adopted by 10 weeks of age but I don't know if I can get them socialized in time.
