Please do spay or neuter your kittens once the vet says they're old enough. There are enough cats out there without good homes, we don't need any more.

Like teaching it to poop/piss in the cat box and not all over the place ?

Mine were home for 3 hours before they ate, and we dropped them right into the box. Peed in the box immediately. I grabbed a paw and made the covering motion 3 or 4 times. We never had an accident. 8.5 years now. Good kids they are.

I've gone through 4 kittens (2 pairs) in the past 6weeks, they keep dying of distemper.

this kitten was the runt and had been rejected by the mother, the other 4 look healthy, I'll get him to the vet right away.I'm hoping the now deceased kitten simply had congenital issues, the mother and father cat are indoor animals so hopefully it's not distemper.

I'm sorry for your losses :(



I just got back from the store, I bought stuff getting ready for the arrival of little Smoke lol, how does a cat that weighs less than a pound need 100 pounds of stuff ? :)

At any rate he's got a bed/hideaway, litter pan/litter, wet food.dry food, cat treats a new collar and toys :)

I used to kill two kittens, but as I get older I find that killing one tides me over for a while...

hope the mod sticks by his vacation promise.

Perhaps sending you to the pound would help.

I thjink my eyes were playing tricks on me when I first visted the litter, looking at this kitten now I think I've got a girl and not a boy.

lol,she's finally sleeping in her little soft cat house/hideaway, she road in my sweater and followed me about the house all morning, she would come and sit on my foot if I didn't respond to her meows :) she finally used her litter pan and is eating like a little pig,roftlol, she was litterally sitting IN her dish eating :D
