Frank, the tiny one in my avatar, was a bottle baby too. He didn't want to be weaned but he eventually stopped drinking from his bottle when he was about 8 weeks old. I don't think you should try to force her to wean, and you really shouldn't withhold the bottle from her if she's hungry but...

Has he been checked for a UTI? Is he ever constipated? When any of my cats spend a lot of time digging in the litter it sometimes mean they're having trouble peeing or pooping. I wouldn't try to discourage him from going into the litter box at all, no matter how annoying it is. If you scare him...

In these cases it's OK to tell a little white lie and say a 6 month old kitten is really 8 months old. ;) As long as she weighs over a kilo it's fine to spay her under 8 months of age.

He will still be able to get her pregnant, if she's more than 5 months old and in heat. Male cats retain enough live sperm to father kittens for up to 30 days after neutering. Really the best way to keep all the cats calm is have them all spayed and neutered. I have a large group of cats that...

Are the kittens still with their mother? The mother cat will still be simulating them to poop at this stage

This works for human babies but SHOULD NOT be used on animals. Please could you answer your PMs, the moderators are trying to get in touch with you.

When were the boys neutered? Male cats can still father kittens up to 30 days after being neutered, is there any chance Nala might actually be pregnant?

I'm so sorry to hear this. :hugs:

My PC. I work online so I'd be penniless without. My yoga mat. Coffee.

I've heard that the best baby food to try and hide meds in is Gerber's Stage 2. You need the plain meat varieties, no onions or garlic. Depending on the meds they can either be hidden in the baby food, or crushed up and mixed into it. You need to check with your vet though, as not all meds are...

That sounds fun. Do you ever join in?

How's everyone doing this month? Most of my exercise has been yard work, but I've been trying to do at least 30 minutes yoga every day too. Yard is looking much better now and it's about time to plant some spring flowers. 45 minutes walk and an hour of yoga today.

They're both beautiful cats! I remember your thread about all the trouble you went to for Bella. I'm glad to see how happy she looks now. Badge awarded. :rock:

That's great news! I think if he was going to have any problems they would have shown up by now. I'm glad to hear he is OK

:yeah: I think if she has a tipped ear it means that she wasn't a feral born kitten that was taken in at a weeks years old, because ear tipping is generally for cats that will be released outside again. It sounds like she was part of a feral or stray colony that was trapped and spayed, but was...

Yep, that sounds about right for her first heat. She will start trying to get out to find a mate, so please be extra careful about keeping doors and windows closed and make sure everyone knows not to open a door without checking where she is. Most vets will want to wait until the heat is over...

How is the kitten acting? Did he throw up?

There's nothing wrong with eating raw maggots @Dheeksha They won't do the kitten any harm. Was the food very bad or just past the sell by date? Being out of date doesn't always mean it's rotten. Don't try to induce vomiting. Just keep an eye on your kitten. If the food was bad he'll start to...

@gaberen Have you Googled mobile vets in your area? You might be able to find a vet who will come to you

2 hours walk through the woods yesterday. I got soaked, but it was nice to be out.
