My cat had 2 kittens two weeks ago. I was just wondering at what week they should start to be given canned food. Or, will the mother cat give them some when they are ready?? I have no idea, as I have never had a cat with kittens before.

You see my Aunt was walking by our house looking at plants and looked under the house and saw two kittens. They look about 5 weeks old. We have tried everything and they just won’t come out.

How long do the kittens stay in the nesting place with their mother?

Brent W asked:


I have 2 kittens(3-4 months old?). I just adopted them last week. They want to run & hide all the time, especially in the morning. They hide under dressers, beds and in very small places for hours.
They are very sensitive to sounds & are afraid (even afraid of the furnace sound).
I have to find them & get them every time they hide.
I don’t want them to hide continuiously when they are older.
Is there any way I can make them more adaptable & less afraid?

I have three week old kittens. Two of them have matted eyes. One of them has something wrong with the bottom of their foot. It looks dry and cracked. Do they have some kind of fungus? Also the mother cat has a flee collar. Could that be doing it? I am going to take it off of her. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
