So earlier today, around 12 pm, Ragnar was crying a bit while pooping. It was still firm looking but had a bit of mucus coming out, which got stuck to him so I cleaned him up. About an hour ago, he was crying and sitting in the litter box but not attempting to use it. Before this, he also...

Okay, I will look into those! 😁 About each feeding, though I may occasional skip one feeding, typically the one where I am at work and my husband and son feed them. Both are also drinking water now. Loki was very hesitant but finally got it down. 🖤

😅 We decided we are keeping them. Ironically, because everytime I worry about something and take action, the universe is like "nah, everything's chill": Ragnar was drinking water this morning, so that is one down. 😂 It seems awkward for him at the moment, but I know he will get it down...

Hello, it's been a while since I've been here (honestly, forgot this place existed) and I have bad anxiety so I just want to double-check some things ... So, my brother-in-law works for a third-party security company who are contracted with a Home Depot about 10 mins (walking) from my home...

I definitely agree with StephenZ. :) One of my kittens - Pantalaimon - is a moggy. His tabby and white mother went out and about and got herself knocked up. When I asked the owner about possible males, he said the only males around them where black and white cats. The female ended up having...

Hello all! A local shelter of mine has a blue eyed, white polydactyl boy named Butch. He's super gorgeous, but I noticed the volunteer saying that it is super rare for a white cat in particular to be polydactyl. If I recall correctly, the genetics for polys are not linked to that of coat color...

Thank you, everyone, for your advice and comments! :) I have purchased her a dose of Frontline Plus for her cats since I don't believe asking to take home her queen would be a good idea, as it may stress out mom in the process (I have other cats in my home, as well as dogs and she is not...

I'm not sure if his parents carry the dilute gene. His mother is a calico with ginger, no dilution, and his father is a ginger tabby, no dilution. However, I thought that all red/flame must also be lynx point though, as that color gene cannot be solid? His older brother - Kane - does have...

She was also wondering more on mastitis. Would an infected gland go down in swelling after a kitten nurses from it? Would it stay as is? She said the area is warm, but that seems normal to me.

Gotcha and thank you so much! Before he ate, she weighed him and said that he weighs at about 12 oz's, so around 340 and 360 grams which seems a little normal. She has to go to sleep though due to work stressing her out today so she is going to wait and weigh him again tomorrow. She also has...

She said that it feels like a lump from where her hand is to the nipple.

I also thought about the box, but not with the carrier inside of it, so that is a great idea! Thank you for that suggestion!

Just to clarify cause I can misunderstand sometimes, you mean for the mother to drink a dish of formula, correct? I asled for pictures. Before I asked, she said that when he nursed on the swollen one, the swelling went down a bit afterwards. In the mean time, I will wait for her to send the...

Upon closer inspection of the mother, my co-worker has noticed that the mother is lactating from only two nipples, with one seeming to be swollen. I'm wondering if this was the reason behind the other kittens passing. In any event, obviously she will be closely monitering both of them and...

I could ask her about it but she lives in a situation where she is not suppose to have cats, so transportation would be easy going to but I worry that coming from might cause injury, since she will have to conceal them rather than using a carrier. Though, if I can get at least her male fixed, I...

If I recall correctly, his momma's owner said that he was the first one to open his eyes. He was 10 days old and at that time, he also had one ear opening up too. I'm attaching that picture now. She checked on them all daily, but it looks as if he might have started opening them sooner than day...

Thank you for your answer! :) Will send the message along and look into the earth! Any ideas on whether it is safe for him to be drinking water, or exploring it, this early?

She has just informed me that he has discovered water for the first time. I have tried finding out if it is safe for him to have water yet or not, but a lot of the answers simple say "about four weeks". Is it okay for him to be starting on water already?

My coworker's cat had kittens three weeks ago. There was an issue with the delivery: she had six kittens, four born alive, one stillborn and another stillborn about a day or two later without her knowing. The kittens are inbred, the parents being siblings. My coworker has been having a hard...

Back to the main topic of this post though, 3 week old Summer does have color now!! It appears that he is indeed a flame point. :D
