I tamed a wild cat and she's still young, but could tear you up if she wanted to. I am waiting for her to be tamed enough to where vet visits wouldn't freak her out so that I can take her to have her spayed. I waited a wee bit too long . I had her outside roaming loose until I realized "I have a male cat", and then put her in a penned tree house for until I can get her spayed. I noticed her getting fat so I thought she had a bad case of worms (she'd never been wormed before) so I wormed her (small dose just in case) and a week or 2 later, I hear kitten meows. I go to the tree house to find KitKat having kittens, only, she's not doing ANYTHING about it. She was just sitting there like "What do I do with these things?". It had been out of her for a long time apparently, because both were completely dry. But, they both were still attached to her by their umbilical cords. I tied two pieces of thread to the cords and cut in between and one was fine, the other died during the night. When I went outside this morning, The one was fine, and the other was dead, and she had popped another one out, but again, it was attached to her by the umbilical cord. I did the same as I did before. The 2 kittens are fine now, but KitKat will not have a thing to do with them. If anything, she growls at them. I lay her beside the kittens, and try to get them to nurse, and they try, but nothing comes out. I give her teets a squeeze, but nothing. She must not have any milk. While I try to get the kittens cuddled up to her so they don't freeze, she swats at me, and growls at the kittens. I finally decided to feed the kittens myself, so I milked my goat and gave some to the kittens. They didn't even act hungry! What do I do? KitKat won't take care of them, and they won't eat. Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
