Thanks for the reply. We took her to the vet and he put her on probiotics for her diarrhea, and said to take our cues from her on when she wants to wean them fully.

Hi again. The kittens will be seven weeks old tomorrow. They're doing great. Two questions: 1. They're mostly weaned off but they do occasionally get a bit of milk from her, though she doesn't have much to give anymore (she's a small cat and the kittens are an average of 2lbs). We have her...

Thanks for asking. They're doing well. :) I weigh them every day and they are all gaining a lot of weight. She is very attentive to their needs. The collar was just for the trip to the vet. The cats are roam naked around here. :)

Thanks, I'll try that!

She seems to be a bit more relaxed tonight. I think she is finally calming down enough to sleep a bit, and she's not panting as much. Thanks for the tip re: cooling her food. I buy the big cans of food so it's often cold, but I will try putting the new cans in there too before serving, at...

Thanks for the reply. She went into labour this afternoon but the first kitten seemed to get stuck, so we took her into the emergency vet. She gave birth to five healthy kittens this evening. :)

Hi, I read all of the posts on overdue cats but I am looking for some advice specific to my situation. I live in the country, and a ~6 month old kitten was dumped in my backyard 65 days ago. We took her to a different vet than we usually do (because he was closer - less of a drive for her)...
