    Confusing & need serious help!
    Okay I have a cat that had kittens 4 weeks ago, she was nursing and never left their side, my other, pregnant, cat came in and laid on the nursing cat making the kittens go to her, well now she is having her kittens && she has nothing to do with her own. The first cat is kind of messing with them but I don't know how much longer she will have her milk, or if she even has it

    Let them be the animals they are, the kitties will eat. If not, warm a little evaporated milk & taste of honey in a bowl & distribute the milk mixture accordingly, you may need to close the door to a room with the kitties inside & I guarantee you will have healthy cats. As far as the playful one, keep it away at feeding times. I've had cats & kittens & this worked for us.

    Do not use anything but kitten replacement formula. I would also take mom cat and her kittens in to the vet for a check up to make sure she delivered all of the kittens. While there the vet can tell you how often to feed and show you how to massage their genitals so they will go to the bathroom. I am assuming your are talking about your cat that had the kittens second.

    Please consider getting them spayed as well. If money is an issue call around to shelters or your town hall to see if they offer low cost spay and neuter clinics. There are numerous health benefits to your cats for doing this.

    Thank you. And I have been trying to get them fixed for some time now.I just recently learned about a $10 spay and neuter animal clenic that comes to my town one day out of a year, but unfortunately both my cats will still be nursing when they come, and I am unsure of the number for them. And I have been trying for a very long time to have them fixed. Because money is DEFINITELY an issue in my house
