My cat just recently lost her kittens when they ran away on the Fourth of July. Now she’s hardly eating and she’s shedding massive amounts of fur. She’s not taking good care of herself and seems lost all the time. Is there anything I can do?
My foster kitten has really bad diarrhea and we have tried everything.
Hello,
I need a better description of “everything”. Please. Have you brought a fecal sample to your vet for analysis? This is the best place to start. In fact I usually recommend three serial exams before I rule out parasites in kittens. I also think the diet can be tweaked. But I need to know the age of your kitten before I can comment on this. Pleaee give me more info
Kitten is uncoordinated and wobbly on rear
Hello,
I’m sorry but there isn’t wbeough information to offer much assistance. As with all kittens showing anything abnormal the best advice is to see a vet immediately. I would be very worried about disease, infection, and kittens are very fragile so you should not wait.
Help me determine my kitten’s gender?
I adopted Joey 4 months ago and the vet determined that he’s a boy. We never really brought up his gender afterwards during his vaccination.
He is around 6 months old now and I don’t really see his ‘scotum’ growing. Compared to the kitten nearby where I live (which is around 2 months old), his ‘male parts’ look less prominent.
I don’t have the time to visit the vet this week, so can someone help me determine his/her gender? I’m a little confused.
Hello,
That kittens look like a female to me :). You should get er spayed soon, otherwise she will get pregnant if there are intact males around.
I found this cat a few hours ago in my garden.(i named him Simba). Hes actually a kitten, very small, cute and adorable.
Ive put him in a box and gave him some milk. He drank about 150ml of milk. Now he just doesnt move and look very sad. Ive cover him with a napkin in case hes cold. I just feel like hes bored and depressed. What am i doing wrong? Should i feed him something else? Does he need another cat because hes lonely?
You should call a veterinarian and bring the kitten in to have it checked right away. Depending on how old the vet estimates it is, will let you know what and how to feed it properly, it will allow you and the vet to know what condition the kitten is in and line you up for proper/necessary immunizations. Best of luck!
Kittens should be active eating and playful (age dependent). If they are not it should be considered an emergency and you should seek immediate veterinary assistance. Kittens are very fragile. Do not hesitate or wait I hope he is ok.
Hello, I have a newborn kitten. Its an orphan, and honestly seems to be about 5 days old. I have questions regarding its stool, yesterday the stool was more formed but today its diarrhea I am worried.. its like a yellowish brown diarrhea that seems to be a bit slimy if that makes sense. I have been feeding it KMR.
Thank you so much for your reply!

I have a 24 hour old kitten who was born with what looks like a sack filled thing on its head its coming out of the head from the skin and on the top of it, it has a string type thing coming out on top of it.
What could it be ?
Thanks for your reply. We have an appointment tomorrow to see the vet
My kitten is 5 weeks old and is very weak and has no energy like the other 3 kittens i tbink she is dying please help
Taking to vet immediately would be a really good idea
I got a 9 week old kitten, and she has been diagnosed with a calcium deficiency. She has mouth drops from the vet, but is sleeping a lot a walking very weakly. What is the recovery time and what should I expect? I’m so worried.
I would get her to the vet, to be quite honest.
I agree with laura. Also please try to provide her a quiet, warm, stress free place to rest and lots of food options. Please also have her spayed.
