    Too much milk for spaying?

    Thanks for the response. The 'jumper' as he called it cost me £18 - that is why I mentioned money.   I have to take her back in 10 days for the operation.  It is like a babygrow, bur has holes for her legs and her bottom, so that she can go to the toilet.  I will keep her in it for 8 days and...

    Too much milk for spaying?

    Well the kittens are 11+ weeks now; Truffles went to her forever home on Thursday and Bailey is going later today.  Both are such lucky animals and will have plenty of green pastures to explore in their new homes with experienced owners. I took Mummy Cat to the vet this week for her spaying...

    Maisie and her kittens

    I would love to keep them all, but will probably only keep one and hope the other two can be rehomed together.  We had two people interested in the kittens pre-birth, but we feel they don't understand the responsibility they are taking on.  I am being very pickie aren't I?  Sox is just fine...

    Newborn kitten not feeding

    I weighed the three kits today (day 3) and they have all gained about 15 grammes from yesterday.  Even allowing for toileting and taking into account responses from experienced owners, I think they are doing fine.  Mum is out of her box for longer periods now and has started to feed better after...

    Newborn kitten not feeding

    Thank you to all who have posted here. I will wait and watch the kits and mum today and if they have not put on any weight tomorrow will try the goats milk (I drink it myself) just to supplement mummy.  All kits are pushing and climbing at the milk bar, but little kit is always on the bottom. ...

    Newborn kitten not feeding

    Thanks for the kitten advice.  It was a difficult night as queenie decided to be violently sick several times.  Luckily she had followed me into the kitchen so easy to examine and clean up.  However, she did ask to go outside and I let her - she was sick again once outside.  When she came back...

    Newborn kitten not feeding

    I hope someone can answer this as I came on here to ask the same question. I have three little kits and one does not seem to feed - exactly as you described, she just doesn't want to latch onto the nipple and the other two kits are stronger, so she spends a lot of time cuddling mum.   She is...
