Our foster gave birth to her kittens early yesterday morning! They are doing fabulous. Anyone good at newborn kitten sexing? We’re thinking boy, boy (tabby and whites), girl, girl (black and white and solid tabby.)
Hi all! We’ve been fostering cats and kittens since December and just sent our 10th and 11th off to their forever homes yesterday. The shelter has a very pregnant mom cat who we are going to pick up today.
We’re super excited to help raise neonatal kittens but I know they can be a bit fragile and don’t always make it. My daughter is 8 and I’m wondering if I should talk with her ahead of time about the possibility that not all of the kittens will make it, or just deal with it if it happens? I want her to be mentally prepared but she’s also a worrier and I don’t want her freaking out about something that might not even happen. Advice welcome!
Also shoot me any general tips and tricks for kitten birth and newborn kitten care! I’ve read up on the basics but appreciate advice from the pros. ☺️
