That's a relief, I'm glad to hear it can be normal. I dont have a ton of experience with raising litters, but I have fostered a couple litters (with mom) from nb-adoptable age and I don't remember them being like that! I mean, they'd cry when removed from mom for weight checks and such when...

I have a 4 week old kitten (well, 3 actually, mother raised) and he is otherwise friendly. No fear of humans, doesn't run or hide, welcomes being pet, will fall asleep in my lap. But being picked up gets him more upset than I think is normal. I know it's normal for young kittens to take awhile...

i have a 7yo male, 7yo female, and 6yo male cats. a month ago I added 4 & 7yo females. i kept them strictly separate for the first several weeks. New kitties downstairs, original kitties up. After a few weeks I started leaving the door open and letting the new kitties have the choice to venture...

So, admittedly, I don't know much about the cat lactation process :) For humans, I have gobs of experience (was breastfeeding nonstop for 10 years!) So, i would assume that the "fostermama" has a little colostrum now, but maybe not enough for her catnapped kittens to grow on? And if she did...

My mom took in 2 pregnant cats a month ago. They are a bonded pair, and have previously had simultaneous litters. This time, they are a couple weeks apart. mama #1 gave birth to 6 kittens early sunday morning. mama #2 was right there playing doula and quickly claimed a couple for herself to...

Im hoping that I will be able to drive the cats, but circumstances may prevent this and they may need to fly. (Without me, so would be as cargo) Not ideal, but wondering if anyone has done so recently and can suggest an airline to use? Or knows what it costs? I had to ship my cats about 10 years...

My 3 cats have been on mostly kibble, main reason being ease/laziness. Fill the bowl, leave it out, refill when empty. Easy! We decided to change things. Our long haired cat is 20lbs and very overweight. He has trouble grooming himself and it's been the wake up call that we need to make changes...

Wasnt sure if this belonged here or in the "other pets" section but I went with this section since I want to focus on the cat side of things. I have 3 cats, 6/7yo. We got a puppy in September. Big adjustment for all! Dog is only allowed in certain areas so cats have safe spaces to retreat. Thus...

Hi, I'm new here, I'm hoping that among a group of crazy cat people there will be some brilliant solutions :) I have 4 cats, and they almost always have excellent litter box manners. The main annoyance is that they kick the litter out of the box. My bathroom floor is always covered with litter...
