    Mama cat with mastitis antibiotics/Need to hand feed kittens with difficulty

    Ok so next question, the kittens want to explore, but mama keeps putting them back in the crate (her new kitten box) any ideas? I think it's to do with not seeing them for a week I know I would be the same

    Mama cat with mastitis antibiotics/Need to hand feed kittens with difficulty

    So since writing this mama decided the box she was in was too small now and has moved to the dog crate downstairs, mama and kittens are a lot happier. And no she doesn't have a fever but now she has moved downstairs all those questions have been answered

    Ok so went to my vet this morning because something in her burst and it was her mammory gland, so the vet has given me a vest for her and something to clean her wound with and to clean her other nipples with salt water, but my question is do you have any ideas on how I can keep her kitten box...
