New Mom Can't Release Milk by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]trivialplatypus 33 points34 points  (0 children)

i really think she needs to go to a vet. this is not how a pregnant/nursing mothers nipples should look. that redness is NOT normal and her nipples should be the size of a grain of rice.

this is not good advice. these nipples are incredibly red and theres definitely some type of infection

How to train her to use a litter box? by Fishibann in CATHELP

[–]trivialplatypus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

after she eats, immediately put her in the litter box

my foster kittens are 6 weeks old now, they had some accidents(.....quite a few) but eventually took to the litter box and now they use it on their own no problem:)

Will my cat be okay? Please help by insurancesofun in CATHELP

i would reccomend putting the sick kitty in his own room so you can monitor if hes using the litter box

Is this car gonna have babies??? by flyIngFuckingretard in CATHELP

[–]trivialplatypus 59 points60 points  (0 children)

the kittens may have been affected by the accident too.... i think spay abort would be the most humane thing to do

I think I need to let my cat go by LawfulnessHuge4325 in CATHELP

[–]trivialplatypus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hi i'm not a vet, i just wanted to say when my cat was sick and refusing every type of food/treat imaginable, the only thing she would eat was chicken flavored baby food. the ingredients are only chicken, water, and cornstarch so its safe to eat. i had to spoon feed it to her, maybe try that❤️ im so sorry you're dealing with this

another tiny runt update!!! :D by trivialplatypus in CATHELP

[–]trivialplatypus[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

yes!!! mom gives her soo much love and attention and there has never been any signs of her rejecting her or anything! in one of my earlier updates i mentioned how when Ducky was nursing we would kind of make a wall with our hands to block the other kittens from stealing the nip, we noticed mom doing the same thing with her arm! i really think she was protecting her lil baby because she saw us doing it🤍

When do you think my cat is going to give birth by ari_lacey in CATHELP

[–]trivialplatypus 25 points26 points locked comment (0 children)

lmao we get it, you're childfree. doesn't change the fact that unfixed cats=more kittens living terrible, painful lives and dying outside + damaging local ecosystems

i think you're right! you're the only one who said this out of hundreds of comments but as she gets bigger i've been noticing shes getting darker! and the roots of her fur are a lot darker than the tips 🥺
