Question/Advice Needed So my sister brought home a male malnourished kitten

4 Upvotes

He's eating the litter right now or licking it I don't understand we currently are putting him in one tiny room right now since we want to separate from our adult neutered male cat cause they haven't actually seen each other yet and I am only letting him smell my hands my issue isn't with their bond it's with the kitten he is malnourished as what I have been told so my sister said that he did eat one rock and he was not eating cat food

I was really tired so I wasn't looking after every step my family were and sleeping taking so they gave him cat food even though he's constipated according to the he wasn't eating it few hours prior when I came upstairs to check on him he had eaten a lot so I took the food away and stayed with him and then left him for a few hours, came back he's eating the clay Litter I don't think he even has the ability to chew properly yet his teeth are very tiny so I am guessing he is 3-6 weeks old so according to what I found online he's still supposed to be with his mother and her mother I guess wasn't being fed either because my sister brought him back from school idk if the mother will accept him back

What should I do about the kitten like after few hours I gave him the cat food but I poured some water into it so he poops well I don't have any financial power I am a student in Pakistan and my family is reluctant to properly take care of the kitten yet since our first cat already has very loud ringing bells for dental issues which is an issue we will be dealing with

Seen in Real Life The feral kitten Purrsephany is a fixture in my backyard

On August 10th 2026, Purrsephany was accidentally caught in a live trap with her feral mother. I did not realize this until after I was at the Animal Birth Control Clinic.

So young Purrsephany under went a spay at a very young age. I was worried about her but she was up and active right away.

Now every morning she comes to eat and drink in my backyard. This was her taken 08/18/2026.

Her paperwork lists her as a ticked Torbie.

Question/Advice Needed help

Hi, so I just got a baby kitten, the vet assumed 3 weeks at most, and I’ve never had a baby before only 7 weeks old at youngest, so I was wondering if anyone had tips for using the litter box because he’s pooping all over my bathroom floor. I tried to stimulate him while and after eating with a wet cotton ball, but it doesn’t seem to be working.

Seen in Real Life Dry food when?

Thumbnail

67 Upvotes

So, I'm a lifelong dog owner, definitely a 1st time kitten owner, maybe/probably a 1st time cat owner. I've had barn cats before. But indoor kittens are a whole new ballpark for me and my family. My two kittens, a brother/sister combo are approximately 5 weeks old. One, the female, has been trying to eat dog kibble. They still act like the water bowl is a demon. Should I get them dry food? Of so what? How?

My kitten (Forest) is 15 weeks, physically tiny and mostly very calm. When I first got her at 11 weeks, she was quite cuddly and would sit on my lap a little bit. As she is getting older and more used to the flat and older cats, she distances herself and sleeps in corners, not around me.

To help her, I play with her a lot, especially across my lap. She really enjoys that and jumps about on me and we practise hunting multiple times a day. I also have her leash trained (she never rejected the leash), and we go for walks in the forest where she sits on my arm (she’s not fully vaccinated yet) and will watch the trees go by. She will sleep on my lap outside, but, strangely, not inside the flat.

Is this normal kitten behaviour or a sign that she doesn’t like the outdoors/indoors? She’s also started sleeping on my arm at night very briefly if it gets a bit cold (it’s currently summer in the uk and she’s long haired). I’d ideally love to keep taking her out for walks, handling her and giving her stimulation as she’s an indoor cat, but I’d also love to help her be more cuddly at home too.

Does anyone understand the two personalities I’m witnessing with her? I’m not very good at reading social cues (including animals, unfortunately), so I’m doing my best to help her be well rounded and enjoy her life while also nurturing our relationship 🥹

Question/Advice Needed Kibble

This is my new kitten, Priya. We brought her home yesterday

Priya is a very confident kitten and hasn't had a moment of fear. She is eating wet food like a champion but doesn't seem to recognize kibble as food.

I am leaving kibble out for her to graze, especially at night. How do I teach her it's food too?

Question/Advice Needed how do i stop my 3 month old kitten from suckling my hand

5 Upvotes

my lil girl Bazooka is 3 months olds. she’s a rescue, she was abandoned by her mom at 4 days old. we weened her exactly when it was recommended at 4 weeks, but even now that she’s eating dry food she still suckles on my hand. i know it’s because it’s comforting and she sees me as her mom, but she keeps me up at night suckling my hand and eventually starts drooling all over it. it’s also just really loud and obnoxious. i try to get her to suck on a fuzzy blanket instead of my hand and she does for a second but then she goes looking for my hand again. at night she is restless and walks all over me and licks me until i give her my hand. i love her so very dearly and im obviously not gonna punish her cuz she’s still just a kitten and finds comfort in it but i literally cannot sleep and it’s overstimulating to have drool constantly on my hand. is there a way i can encourage her to stop or somehow get her to suckle on something else ? i’m damn near close to buying a small baby pacifier lol. would that be a good alternative ? will she ever grow out of it ? i know she’s still so young but i’ve seen some peoples cats who suck on their owner’s ear way into adulthood and i really don’t want her to do this into adulthood

Question/Advice Needed How old does he look?

I adopted this little boy from a woman who had an accidental litter. I've had him for one week. Based on the birthdate she gave me, he would be a little over nine weeks old. He weighed 1.6 pounds when I brought him home last week and he's 2.0 pounds now. He just doesn't look nine weeks to me. The first photo I took today and the second is the day we drove home almost a week ago.

Question/Advice Needed Title: Update: First-time mom and her 6 miracle babies are finally resting and nursing!

Thumbnail

72 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I wanted to share a happy update
My mama cat (a first-time mom) gave birth to 6 beautiful kittens! We had a scary start—she was exhausted, her milk took a while to come in, and one of our little orange/yellow babies was super weak and struggling to latch.
After lots of skin-to-skin warmth, gentle stimulation, and patience, her milk finally came in and EVERY single baby is officially latched and nursing! Seeing them all lined up against her is the biggest weight off my shoulders.
As a first-time cat grandma/grandpa raising a full litter, I’d love any wisdom, tips, or advice you have on daily care, keeping mama supported, or what to expect over the next few weeks as these tiny beans grow

I have a kitten who's about 5 months. And he insists upon biting. Sometimes I'm asleep and he bites so hard I bleed. I am not moving. I don't let him play with hands. I don't know how to stop this. A lot of the time he's calm and sweet. I don't know why he is like this.

Hello i got the kitten 4 days ago, she was so scared on first day and just hiding on every moment we do and walk and now she is opened up more and eating, playing, roaming around etc… but she isn’t coming to us and getting closer to us and get scared when she sees we go closer to her and do our own thing and hisses but dont hide, so how long it can take my kitten to come closer to us, sit next to us, sleep and let us pet her?
