    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    Any smell I can feel from a huge distance. My family smell nothing, while I smell even when a cat peed in the litter box. It’s awful 😞 And it’s not that they have super smelly pee or poo - I already give them indoor cat food... About raw meet I am not sure. We started to feed our old cat a raw...

    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    I also read that it’s worth trying to give snacks to the cat where she pees, to change the meaning of the spot. And I tried today, two other cats gladly jumped on the bed to snack, but the little one hesitated a lot.

    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    She is spayed. Other cats never sleep in my daughter’s bed. My daughter has been thought well and she is not rough with cats, but she likes to pick the little one up - but very gently. The kitten does not protest really. It is very strange, the timing, when she pees in her bed. I will take her...

    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    So the kitten is afraid to use litter box only every second Sunday? Because it’s always on Sundays. Like I said, I am sure it’s not about the boxes. And the litter boxes are not next to each other but in different places, on one level. Also, the kitten is the bully, not the older cats. She has...

    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    I really don’t think it’s the problem with litter boxes. All cats will go where ever the boxes are, not because they want them on all levels. And this happens literally only on Sundays, while I am still in bed and my daughter wakes up before me. This kitten has been with us since she was 2 month...

    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    She goes downstairs, husband said that she actually went this morning and he saw her using the litter box in the basement. And then she comes up and pees in my daughter’s bed... it’s just that it happens always in the same manner - as soon as she wakes up, gets out of the bed. And not every day...

    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    The problem with putting a box in our rooms is that all 3 cats start using it and its super dirty in couple hours. And smells. It’s not like the kitten (a teenager really, she is 5 month old) doesn’t know where the 3 clean litter boxes are and she is using them all the time with no problem. The...

    5 month old kitten pees on my daughter’s bed

    Hello to you all! I need your wise advice... we adopted a kitten in September, our third cat. All started well, all cats got along rather quick. At first we had one litter box in the room (and 2 in the basement with access via cat door in the wall, the older cats always go there) for the kitten...

    Kitten Nursing On Herself

    We have adopted a kitten from a shelter. She was together with her mom and siblings, all in good health. When we brought her home, she was 12 weeks old, it’s been a week now. The kitten, Ellie, is nursing on herself when getting ready to sleep. She purrs and seems very happy and then the nursing...

    Kitten Is Not Playing

    she was in a shelter/foster family, yes, around other cats and kittens. As far as I was informed and saw from pictures, she was not in quarantine.. they also do not know, what happened. I have to say, the care is not very good here in Belgium. No, she was not vaccinated, she was underweight.

    just a small update - after 3 weeks of being in the shelter, the kitten died tonight... :( I am heartbroken :(

    Kitten Is Not Playing

    I just got news from the shelter that the kitten has started vomiting... twice already this evening. Now I am very worried that she might have contracted parvovirus...

    Kitten Is Not Playing

    I will do my best with the introduction. Yes, I have my own vet, but I will be able to do the check only when the kitten is already with me, so I have to wait for now...

    Kitten Is Not Playing

    Thanks, Furballsmom :) She has been living in a foster family for 3 weeks now, among other cats, also kittens, and has been well for the past week. Well, she will probably be stressed when she will move in with us (and we have 2 young adult cats, whom we still have to introduce to her), let's...

    Kitten Is Not Playing

    Hi all! Would you share your experience? so the kitten (about 10 weeks old) I am (hopefully soon) will bring home from the foster family seems to be a rather calm kitten. FF say, she is cuddly, likes to sleep, plays just a bit. Isn't it strange? I was under impression that kittens, if healthy...

    Rectal Prolapsus In A 9 Weeks Old Kitten

    they are just like that, they say, that it costs too much (I offered to cover the expense), then they say that she is too fragile for the blood test... my guess is that they don't want to do it, because if she turns out positive and I won't take her, they will have trouble to put her for...

    Rectal Prolapsus In A 9 Weeks Old Kitten

    FeLV is the other thing I am worried about. The shelter refuses to test her, if I take her and do it myself and she is positive, it could be false positive at this age. Or, it could be positive, but she could fight it off, which I read happens. Then I'd have to keep her isolated from my other 2...

    Rectal Prolapsus In A 9 Weeks Old Kitten

    Just read your reply to me on your thread. After all I have read, it’s mostly the same thing - it HAS to be put back in asap and if the cause (worms, genetic defect of the bowls etc) is not treated, it will come back. It is very strange that your vet said you don’t have to do anything... Have...
