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.

I’ve found a kitten whos about 4 weeks old. One eye has already opened- but one still has skin over it- that looks like it hasn’t been opened since birth. Does anyone know if its a disability from birth- or can it be healed. I prefer herbal medecines to any chemicals- but any suggestion would be extremely helpful. I also think she has a cold because she keeps sneezing. Please help?

I’m about to receive my very first kitten in a few days. We have all the necessary items, however, during the night we were planning to keep it in its carrier until its fully trained.

Is this okay temporarily? There will be a litter box and food and water in the carrier, and the kitten will have full access to the house within the week she arrives home.

I have used Frontier or Advantage collars for fleas and it really worked. I believe my kitten may be too young for a collar now and I have some kitten flea powder will that work for now?
Where do I get these kitty flea drops at the vet or can I buy them @ Walmarts?

I understand cats are nocturnal, but our kittens decide they want to play hockey and kitten-derby at 11 at night and 4 in the morning but they sleep all day. Is there any way we can switch that around by changing feeding times or something? We try playing with them right before bed but that just winds them up more. Any thoughts?

Don’t hate me for this question. My friends cat has had 5 litters of kittens with different stray cats. The cat was fine every time. How is that so much easier?
The cat was outdoor so they didn’t know she was going to have kittens. After the five litters they decided to spay her. Every kitten the cat has was taken very good care of and either kept of given to one of their other family.
