The foster coordinator is going to contact me as soon as she she get me a sooner appointment. It is hard right now as it is kitten season and the shelter is overrun but hopefully it will be SOON! Thanks for the replies.

Thank you. I really hope she is not pregnant. I know they can be aborted but the thought makes me so sad!

Wow I just posted something similar then saw this thread! My two kittens are only 4.5 months and I just caught them mating. I also thought they were much too young!!

I have two 4.5 month old kittens. They are due to get spayed and neutered at the end of August. Two days ago the female starts meowing. In the back of my head I wondered why but didnt think too much about it. Well today we caught her brother trying to mate with her. We separated them immediately...

Do you remember how long that took? Google said their eyes stop changing at 3 months but I guess not all cats follow that rule of thumb!

I keep waiting for my kittens eyes to change colour as Ive heard that cats cant have brown eyes. I haven't seen any colour change in several weeks and they appear to me to have brown eyes. Mom has green/yellow eyes. Anyone else have a cat with brown eyes? Will they eventually change? They are...

If cost is an issue perhaps you could look into a homemade diet? You can buy meat on sale and make large batches and freeze them. You dont even have to do “raw” you can do a homemade cooked diet. If it is a grain allergy you would need both grain-free kibble and canned food. Giving him a grain...

It sounds to me like it could be a food intolerance. The licking between the paws can be a sign of food allergy. The brands youve mentioned trying are all pretty low-quality foods (purina, fancy feast, rtc). Have you tried a good quality grain-free food? Merricks or Wellness? He seems to...

My male cat did really well once I switched his good to Nutram Urinary food. Nevet had issues after. Maybe you could do a preventative switch before you neuter your cat to ease your mind? I also only fed dry as I never knew cats needed canned. Good luck with whatever you decide

I got my last boy neutered young (two months) and he had lifelong urinary issues. My current kittens I will wait until 5 months. I want to get them done before 6 months though as that is when they can start to mark. It’s a personal choice and just do as much research as you can. Im so sorry to...

Thanks! Ya there were a couple very obviously short haired cats in the litter, and one that had quite a thick coat, then thus fluff ball that definitely had longer hair but he doesnt have the fluffy undercoat. He and his sister has very very soft silky fur, it feels different than the others...

Thanks! Yes she is really pretty. She is also the most relaxed cat I have ever met. Sooooo chill. We just love her!

Thank you! I thought it may be silver but I know it’s a rarer colour and he is just a moggy so wasnt sure. Also when I googled silver tabbies some looked way lighter. When I googled silver tabby maine coons they looked just like him though.

He doesnt have the brown I see in most tabby’s, and has a slightly fainter undercoat, does that make him a silver tabby? Or a dilute black tabby? Also is he going to be long or short haired? He is 12 weeks old. Thanks in advance!

Im not sure how to describe my kitten. Is she a dilute calico? Dilute torbie? Regular torbie? Her sister had very similar colouring but had black instead of greys. Also, is she likely to be a long or short hair? She is 12 weeks old here. Thanks!
