I am fostering a stray mom and her 6 3 week old kittens. Trapped from a backyard but now mom is friendly. She has not once groomed her kittens and I have not seen her groom herself. The kittens poop and pee wherever because she is not cleaning them up. I have clumping litter in her litter box and it gets caught on their tails and all four of her feet are caked with it. I have a little litter box with clay litter in it for when the kittens are ready to eat on their own, maybe 4 weeks, but I'm wondering if I should switch out HER litter to clay also.
Should I get wipes (for cats) and clean them daily? Some have things caked to the bottom of their feet and lower legs.
I have never had a mom not groom her babies before and am sort of at a loss..
