Good news guys, I was bottle feeding the one that wouldn't eat and, when I went to prepare more formula, he started eating tuna. Then today he ate dry food even when the tuna was there! I hope things keep getting better. I'm so scared but I'm trying to be positive. Thanks everyone!
And thanks everyone for your help! The good news is that the kitten I was worried about is letting me bottle feed him. It's not a lot but he's really congested. I take them both every morning to the vet because they administer the medications so at least I know they'll see right away if anything...
Yeah, mom is feeding them. Good news is that the one who was really bad just ate almost an entire can of tuna. Bad news is the one that wasn't as bad is now the one that's worse. 😔
I don't remember but the vet wasn't worried about the weight so I'm guessing they're ok for their age. I've been using my own cats nebulizer for the saline/gentimizin mix every 4 and a half hours. I put them in an extra carrier and cover it with a sheet then turn it on for 16 minutes. Now I'm...
Thanks so much! Yeah momma eats dry food, tuna, the milk and Sheba mush I made the kitties. Basically everything and anything. She's not picky and she even comes smell my hands when I'm opening cans. The kitties follow her but are just whining for her to lay down so they can feed. They can be...
Hi guys. I trapped a mom and her two kitties, both of which have uri. Took them to the vet and they are on the nebulizer (Gentimicin with Saline Solution) in a small crate every 4:30 hours, they're also on Doxycicline and an eye ointment which the vet administers once a day (I take them to their...
I'm in the same boat. A momma gave birth inside my fence and the kittens are about 4 weeks old too. I wish I had some advice to help you. I'm going to wait till the kittens are a couple weeks older so I can trap mom and get her spayed but have the kittens be old enough that they can stay by...
I guess it depends on the cats, just like with children, all methods don't work with all. I've never had a problem and my cats are always very sweet with me. It's stopped the behavior but, again, that's in my cases. 🤗
I don't understand why some people have trouble with how nature works. Animals hunt to feed and live. Humans have always. Why is it bad for cats to eat birds? I love birds and try to always help if I see an injured one or a baby. But it's like not wanting a lion to eat a zebra or something. If...
I have 2 Vesper cat trees and Lazy Buddy and my cats love them. Even the fat, fluffy one. I like that they aren't all carpet as I've developed allergies and these don't trap as much hair. 🤗
I always have a bottle full of water and just squirt some when they start getting rough. Just one spray making sure its just like a fine mist. I've even used them on adult cats and it always works. Maybe you can try that? Unless he's terrified of water, of course. I find most cats and kittens...
I wish people didn't let their cats roam around unless it's a safe neighborhood. Yes, this happens a lot when cats are domesticated. I've met lots of strays, cats and dogs, that will come straight away to eat. Also would let me pet them. They're used to people and it can be bad since it can be...
I'm so sorry to hear this. I have 5 cats total. One has FIV but I talked to my vet and she said it was ok. Basically I lock her in her own space when I'm not home or we're sleeping. Otherwise I let her loose around the house. I have 2 cats that aren't friendly but I just keep an eye if they're...
Ok raccoons seem to just be jerks 😂
I'm just scared of backyard animals so I never like to go outside after dark. I'm going to try feeding them right outside the patio sliding doors tonight. It's been getting darker here earlier so that's why. 😭
Yikes. And I thought this possum problem was bad. I guess at least it hasn't tried to wreck anything here.
I'm sorry about your rabbits. :(
I've only seen them in pictures and a few videos of them stealing cat food. I totally thought they weren't aggressive. I hope I don't get one of them here...
Oh dear. One of my lab mix would try to bring me his lizard friends. 😫
Possum things sounds interesting 😂 I feel bad for any animal that gets killed. Even if I'm afraid. I kinda felt bad yesterday because I wanted to let it eat but had to control myself.
Are they bad? They look kind of cute...
