Cats and Kittens

dragonmanga11 asked:


Hello, my cat is around 9 years of age (we don’t know exactly because we lost the birth certificate) he’s healthy, happy,playful,expert at jumping and hunting. My cat goes outside but he only goes on my patio(its not like he wonders around the whole neighborhood) and what he does is, he hunts down lizard’s. But he’s only out their for a good 10 minutes. So now that I gave you some detail on my cat tell me how long will he live? Oh and how much should he weigh I herd that’s a big factor.

I’m trying to put a friend’s cat into the cat carrier but every time I get near the cat, she hisses, growls or swats at me. What should I do?

Crazy_Wanderer asked:


My cat had kittens Mon night, 5 one was a still born, so there were 4, ok I know this sounds crazy but, I came home from school today, and there were 5 kittens! Can a cat give birth on two different days?

Aaron asked:


I am about to have my first child and I want to make sure that my cat is introduced properly to her. What is the best way to go about introducing them before my baby is here? What about once there are both living together? The cat is a 3 year old cat who sometimes lives outside. I know he doesn’t like dogs very much who have come to visit.
We are having a home birth but the cat won’t be here for it. He will be returning after the baby is born.

I am looking into bringing a new cat into my home soon. I have a female cat though, she’s 2 1/2. I got her when she was about 5 months, and up until then she had lived with other cats. She is an outdoor cat and plays with other cats when she’s not home, but as soon as they get close to the home, she becomes very territorial, which females tend to do. Would she be more welcoming to a male cat?

I adopted a 4 yr old cat last yr who is very independent and I know she’d be really jealous if I adopted a kitten. I have an option to try to adopt a kitten, if it doesn’t work out there is another family that can take it, but would make it a barn cat. If I took it it’d be an indoor only cat. I feel guilty for my current cat bringing a kitten into the house. Our current cat is so well behaved too, scared that the kitten could turn out to be a brat by scratching our furniture and stuff. Have you ever been in this situation? What did you do?

Shelby asked:


I just got a new 6 week old kitten yesterday (from a shelter), and I was wondering if she is old enough to give treats to. Like the soft treats that cats go crazy for. Is there a certain age that cats can be given treats.

Also I need help naming her. She is white with large black spots, and her nose is black. Her personality is like most kittens, playful and curious.

Sleepless Sincerity asked:


Two weeks ago I rescued a three month old kitten fro
the local shelter. Since then I don’t think I have gotten 8hours straight of sleep. I’ve asked around with friends with cats and googles stuff but nothing I try seems to work. She doesn’t stay on her bed and when I pick her up to put her on her bed she just scratches and bites at my hands. How do I teach and or discipline her to go to bed?

Please please help I’m desperate.

Cameron asked:


I got my 5- 6 week old kitten from my friend. (Her mother sadly died). I am aware kittens are meant to be playful and active because they are like little children but my kitten is really crazy. She jumps and runs a lot, climbs walls, curtains, scratches and bites everyones feet and hands. She is so hyperactive that one day she injured herself on the stairs so that makes us even more reluctant to take her out of her room. She doesn’t use her scratching post or play with her toys. Help!

Kayleigh asked:


I have a 3 month old kitten and an 11 year old cat. Both of them like to eat little and often so their feeding bowls are always out. They both enjoy dry biscuits and recently I’ve noticed that the kitten will push the big cat out of her way so she can get to his food, he then just wanders over to her food.
Is it important that she’s eating the right sort of food for her age? She really seems to prefer adult cat food.
