Last time I posted the kittens were about 2 weeks old. Baby Ash was sick. Sneezing and developed a goopy eye the day after we took them to the vet. Most likely he had a cold. No one else got sick. I am happy to report he is doing just fine now. The kittens are 5 1/2 weeks now. They are eating...

We have an appointment in an hour from now we can't miss we will take him to the vet after. I will try the homemade pedialyte.

I don't have a scale but his belly hasn't felt full like the others for two days. Mama was insistent on moving him so I moved the others to him and she seemed to accept that. Things seemed OK, but today he seems lethargic. His mouth just hangs open and he doesn't squirm like he did, and the...

So mama moved just one kitten. I am confused by this. She is going back and forth between the one she moved and the other two. If she was going to move one? Why not all 3? I am also worried about the one by its self getting cold.

OK, thank you! I was starting to panic about her being dehydrated. I just want to do everything I can to keep her and the kittens happy and healthy.

Everything seems to be going smoothly except I am worried that Star isn't getting enough water. She gets very anxious leaving them. She will eat use the litter box but barely touches her water if at all before racing back. I am only feeding her wet food now and tried to mix water into it, but...

I think MMeyers is correct. I got luck and was able to tell 2 of my cats 3 kittens the day they were born as one was a tortoise shell and one of the boys was clearly different from her. It took a few days for me to be sure about our 2nd little boy. They are only 4 days old now, and it is even...

Thank you and yes, we will be very careful. She wanted out while the babies were sleeping. I put him in another room so she could stretch her legs for a bit. She ate and used the litter box and was anxious to get back to them.

We have 3 beautiful kittens. I was sure there would be one more but it has been a few hours now. Mama is doing an amazing job. I was worried about how young she is, but she was a pro. We are giving mom time to rest before we let dad meet them.

We have baby number one!

Thank you all. I really appreciate the advice. I think the cage is a wonderful idea. Something is happening. She woke me up this morningacting quite panicked. She is purring louder and harder than I have ever heard her before. She wants me to sit in my closet with her, and heaven forbid I...

Sorry for the spelling and grammar. I didn't catch them until after I posted.

I brought her into my room last night and she seems much more content now. Previously she avoided us but that has changed over the last few weeks but she's was still surprised that she seems to prefer this arrangement. He is freshly netured and we were hoping it would mellow him out some but...

We took in a couple of kittens at the request of our landlord that had been left by previous tenants. We hadn't gotten them fixed yet as we though they were too young. Less than 6 months. The female is very tiny. When I heard her screaming downstairs I thought he was playing too rough with...
