UPDATE: Mother cat hiding with her newborns in my wood stash
We moved the family out of the wood stash and let them find another place. They literally moved on a hollow place under the steps. We have gotten closer to the cats and now she comes by herself to get treats and pats. We feed her everyday and provide milk and water. Yesterday, we got an anti-bug oil and applied it to her. She has started putting on weight and it's nice getting closer to her and seeing her doing better.
Thanks for taking care of them! Just wanted to say that milk is generally not a good thing to give to cats as most of them are lactose intolerant.
Thank you so much! I'll stop providing milk then.
It causes violent diarrhea, sometimes bloody.
You can get "milk" designed for cats, I bought some in the supermarket but ours was never interested. I should have asked his foster mum which brand she got him as he liked that one, but I never paid attention to the label on the carton she gave us. Oh well, it's been years now and he's fine without.
Those are some big kittens.
May also be a little mum - barely more than a baby herself. They can apparently get pregnant very young!
This is such a nice update I’m glad mommy cat is doing fine with her kittens <3
When a neighbor needs help, you help. Respect.
Also the best food for a cat that has kittens, is wet kitten food. It has much more calories than adult cat food. She'll need that as she's still giving milk.
like someone else said, milk isn’t the best for her. Make sure she gets lots of nutrients and has water all the time.
Now I'm curious, will she adopt you as personnel for her and her kittens. ;)
i hope not because i do not live in my village permanently and I'll have to leave in a month
I guess you'll be temporary personnel then.
