good to know! thank you!

Thanks for the posts :D I was thinking about the playpen but I'm sure the other cats would end up landing on top of it. I'm not sure a netted top would keep them out and her in at that point. We've decided on a large dog crate. This should give her lots of room for her recuperation period...

We have a beautiful calico kitty who we just found out has cancer. She has a soft tissue sarcoma. Because of it's location, size and rather rapid growth we have decided the best way to address it is to amputate her leg. Drastic, but we don't want to have to put her through one surgery to cut...

We have five calico's. Mama kitty. she's our only mostly white Calico. Bella, Daisy, Skye and Jemma are all tortie's. Don't worry, a name will bubble up to the top. :)

You said you have two cats? How old is this other cat, and where does it usually hang out? Do you have other pets in the house? other people?

and I have a kitten who is eating kitten food :D Just like that, all of a sudden, all grown up! Other little guy hasn't started eating kitten food yet but I imagine tomorrow, I'll come home and dinner time will include that show!

Let's try that again

Big brother, helping with the cat napping lessons.

Beauty and her fat little babies.

So, we're at day 17 now. These two little guys weigh 11 and 12.5 oz. I haven't named them yet.. but they're 2.5 weeks old now and they are wandering around my craft room! They're both still very dark. I can't believe they're mobile. I'm not ready for that! lol. Anyway, other than my...

I have another question :) we're at 10 days now. I still have her and the kittens in a cage. She seems to want to move them, should I let her? Edited to add: I went ahead and let her move them, she seemed to be stressed out being locked up. The babies are over the 10 day weight goal so, they...

So here we are now.. at day 9/10. We weigh 8.8 and 10.8 oz. My handy cheat sheet says these guys are piggies.. Everyone is doing well. Mom's stitches are all inside but everything looks good. I get a good view of her belly when she rolls around letting me rub it :D I let mom come out of the...

I have one question... how warm should I be keeping the room?

Te mom and the two remaining kittens. The kittens weigh 6.8 oz and 7.52 oz. They're gaining just over half an oz each per day.

We usually use the plugins and this time we're also going to have some of the spray, We have a little lady that developed some bad behavior when the people we had given her and her sister to got a small dog. Between the small dog and the wild children, and the people who don't listen to advice...

Congratulations, I'm glad everything went well!

I completely understand, just relax. She'll do all the work. If all goes well, you're simply an observer. If something goes awry, you're there to deliver her to someone who can help. I spent Wednesday night last week laying on the floor with Beauty saying "push mama, push.. you can do...

We brought in a stray who brought lots of fleas with her. you sprinkle DE around on the floors, in the corners and whatnot. but be careful while you're spreading it and make sure you get food grade DE. D.E is super fine and can get into your lungs, and your pets lungs, and cause some...

people always think they've picked the kitty, the kitties pick us. That's why people think that cats are "independent" and "aloof", those kitties didn't pick those people. Independent, they sure are but if they're well loved, they can behave in the same pack manner that dogs do. Mine meet me...
