My cat just had kittens and I need some help!

you guys are all idiots!

People on this board are very much pro-spaying pro neuturing. having said that please call your vet and find out what he thinks you should do ...sometimes the mom senses that something is wrong and will not tend to them. You may have to hand feed them if that's the case...but please call your vet first.
And please spay your kitty.

Your cat is still a baby herself at only a year old. If you have concerns about how the babies are doing, you need to ask your vet asap. You also need to do the best thing for your cat and spay her as soon as you can.

let me add my voice here- for whatever reason you have kittens, please make sure it doesnt happen again. regardless of whether the cats are healthy or not, you should call your vet for advice and probably a visit and if they are having troubles, a call NOW is just that much more important.

there are millions of cats euthanized in north america yearly ebcause there are nto enough homes, not enough money.... please please get yoru cat spayed as soon as possible.

Brie -
How are the kitties doing? What did the vet say?
I hope all is well with the litter...

I hope you have called the vet as well. :fingerscr Do you have an update? :goodvibes:

awww kitties.... any news on how they are doing?

I hope she's not scared off by all the angry spay posts - I think she was really looking for some kind words to go along with her reprimand, guys.

I'm sure after this little scare she's learned a little something...

I didn't read any angry spay posts here, but personally...I care more about animals and their welfare than hurting someones feelings. I think the advice was sound, ask the vet.....and suggestions to spay the cat. I think that under the circumstances the posters were very self contained. It is also important to let some people know how crucial it is to alter their pet...sometimes they just don't know. :shrug:

You're absolutely right, PD. The kittens' welfare is obviously the most important thing here, the second most important being that the same mistake is not made again. I totally agree, and did not mean to offend or speak out of turn.

It just sounded to me like this was a very worried girl, who could have used a few kind words as well as the good advice given in the first post. The responses she got seemed a little curt (perhaps angry was the wrong word), not to mention that after the first poster told her to spay, two others came on and said the same thing. I'm sure she knows that spaying would have prevented this. Maybe she was waiting for the cat to be a year old for spaying, or waiting for her to not be in heat, and she escaped and got pregnant.

Things happen, and cats get pregnant. I'm going to give this girl the benefit of the doubt and assume that it was a mistake, that she's called the vet about the kittens, and that she will have her mummy spayed asap. I also hope that when she came on looking for support and answers and basically just got a couple of judgemental-sounding (to her, not me because I know) "GET YOUR CAT SPAYED PLEASE" she might be scared away from a forum that will ultimately be as helpful to her new brood as it has been for me and mine.

Please come back, Brie, and please let us know how your little kitties are doing! Welcome to the forum, we love pictures!
That's what should ahve been said in the first place, IMO.

i get an impression this poster is young... and maybe she just had a little panic... i mean we dont know the background but neutering an outdoorsy pet does make sense :) .... although that being said my dog back in the UK isnt snipped...

Well to dana thank you for your nice words. I was looking for advice not to be attacked. I WILL NOT fix MY CAT, she is my cat, and i dont belive in it. AND BY THE WAY I AM KEEPING ALL OF MY CATS. I wasnt asking for anyones personal beliefs on fixing my cat or not, i was asking for help for the kittens. So all you people who attacked me, you should really READ THE POST and think about the question before you mindlessly bable about issues that arent even related to the post. thankyou to all the other people who actually gave me advice. AND TO THE "EXPERTS" THAT THINK I SHOULD FIX MY CAT, YOU ARE ALL IDIOTS!:loser::yuck::censored:

Oh my. I'm eating my words.

Brie, that was very rude. There are many people here who could help you and lend you their experience and you just called them all idiots. Kind of made me look like one too.

Also My Cat Is An Inside Cat And Her Partner Is Not Fixed Either And They Both Live With Me. I Am Keeping All The Kittens. So You Guys Who Think Your All High And Mighty Dont Know What Your Talking About. And Im Not Young Im 35 Years Old And Ive Grown Up My Whole Life With Cats. My Sister Is A Vet. I Was Asking Advice Not For You Guys To Harass Me And My Age. I Shoudlnt Have Even Signed Up For This Site. I Thought I Could Get Advice From Other Cat Owners. Inside I Got Insulted And Harassed. So Thanks.

i get an impression this poster is young...


After the OP's last comment :rolleyes:, yes, I believe you're right.

ETA: Danaë, absolutely no disrespect intended towards you. I've been caught in the same place.

Brie, if you don't believe in fixing your cats (which I suppose is your right), do you realize that with your mummy and her partner unfixed, AND five kittens unfixed that you are keeping, that you will literally be swimming in inbred cats within six months?

Oh my. I'm eating my words.

Brie, that was very rude. There are many people here who could help you and lend you their experience and you just called them all idiots. Kind of made me look like one too.

Don't you worry Danaekitty........you don't look like an idiot. I had a real good laugh though when I got back to this thread. It's very, very sad that there are people out there that have these attitudes though, sad for critters anyway.

And we all still love you. :laughing:

Your A Bitch. I Hope You Die You Stupid Fat Bitch Purpledominio. I Feel Bad For Whatever Animals You Own Obviously Your A Dumb Bitch That Doesnt Know What Shes Talking About. You Wanna Give Me Your Address Then We Can Resolve This You Stupid Fat Bitch

Reported. !!

I'm sorry, you said you're 35? Wow... :rolleyes:

Reported.

:offtopic:
Meg, your avatar is STUNNING.

Thank you! My friend got a new camera :D

:offtopic: Okay.....I am NOT FAT!

We know, PD.
She's clearly misguided. I wonder if her vet sister knows about this.
What happens, anyway, when people get reported?

so give me your address

The mods will probably can the troll or suspend membership. Maybe they will throw her in jail? :D

actually i got a warning letter. and ya they might throw me in jail after i find out what your address is! but not for telling all you idiots that you dont knwo what your talking about. your loser who have no life. but ya purple bitch, report me all you want i got a warning letter! and i will find where you live. then i will get thrown in jail.

I dont know which concerns me more, the fact that Brie has come here for advice instead of going to her vet sister. Or the fact that the kittens apparantly aren't the only inbreeding going on in her family.

re-reported.......

oh wow.... erm.... i dunno why anyone would have a boy and girl cat in the same house un neutered.... :frustrated:

Good point. :lightbulb:

i mean in all honesty how many cats fit in a trailer?....

ok i shall put my claws away as well there is no need to attack members who were basically giving advice... the truth hurts.... me thinks its time to close this topic.

Oh my! How do we get this taken right off this wonderful site.

This is not what this site is about and I would hate for others and especially new members to read these posts.

im sure it will be closed is there no mod to close it temporarily?

Sorry Shirly, People stupidity and pms are getting the better of me today.

LOl solves that problem, she's banned.

OMG:evil:this is probably one of those people we see on animal-planet,with a houseful of cats,I LOVE cats,but hoarders are animal-abusers,without meaning to be,sick people with an obcession.
Brie,I suspect you fit in to that category and I am really sorry for your cats,please get help!!

Problem solved, thread closed. Nuff said.

Your friendly neighbourhood mod,

Ford
