They look like grey tabbys to me.

I would definately consider keeping them in as grey cats do take the eye of some people!

Have they been wormed? And what with? You should do this every 4 week until they hit 6 months. It may help oscars smelly bum!

He may just be adapting to having plenty of good food. If you feed whiskas you could try felix, its not as rich.

If your vet wont neuter before 6 months then do phone around other practices and ask them. My boys started to develop at 4 months and had they been left until 6 things may have got out of control!

you can give them kitten milk if u want
but remember it is a food and not a drink so they need plenty of fresh drinking water
i give my cats a bottle of either felix or whiskas milk once a week as a treat i have 7 cats and only 3 or 4 of them like it the others dont bother going near it lol

as for food what food are feeding them at the moment?

when mine were kittens i fed either felix or whiskas kitten food

If you look further down this board you'l see a thread about "cat milk" by Welshgirl..... have a read and shd give you some good advice there

Milk is a food for kittens.....you have to watch as may give them the trotts (lactose intolerance!) water should be fine......food is really up to the kittens (their likes and dislikes) as long as you keep to kitten food.......and the dry for kittens also

what do you all think about kitten milk should I give it them , what brand of cat food is the best?

forever_missing_my_boys(Lisa) · « **Reply #40 on:** May 27, 2007, 16:24:42 PM »

yea thats a good idea keeping them in till u move

robjb19 · « **Reply #39 on:** May 27, 2007, 16:23:45 PM »

basically my gf's mum met someone that ran a cat rescue, they had taken in the kittens and mum as the owner of the mummy cat was mentaly handicaped and couldn't cope with all the kittens, so we made a donation £40 a kitten and rescued them,

I think we are going to keep them in doors until we move as we live in a flat and there are some right nasty butter on are estate and people coming in and out in fast cars not paying attention, so I think that would be best we are going to get them both done as they are brother and sister,

awwww sorry to hear about ur gf parents bengal

are oscar and dora going to be indoor cats or indoor/outdoor cats when they are old enough and have been neutered/spayed?

did ur gf mum own the mummy cat then or did she go and buy/rescue 4 kittens?

robjb19 · « **Reply #37 on:** May 27, 2007, 16:09:21 PM »

she crawl very well, and has just started walking ye shes very affectionate with the kittens and loves to cuddle them and go awwww awww lol, they are realy good with her, the baby loves cats as when the baby was first born we lived with my gfs parents and they hav a red and white persian and from day one he was there so she realy loves his and go's hysterical when she sees him, so I thought i would give in and get her a kitten and then I got talked into getting two as my gfs mum got the whole litter of 4 lol, talk about cat mad she was going to keep them all if we didn't want any, so she would have had 5, they have just had a bengal girl die tho she got ran over shame she was just becoming freindly,

Ditto.....My OH wasnt really a cat person, even had an allergy.......but with ease he fit in lol!.......even built up his tolerance to his allergy.......

Hippykitty · « **Reply #33 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:42:49 PM »

Not really into breeds, but doesn't the female look a bit Bengal like?

Cats are safer than dogs. But don't leave the baby alone with the kittens. The kittens may play and accidentally scratch; or the baby could hurt the kitten. Make sure you supervise when baby and kits are together.

They're BEAUTIFUL!

Especially like the pic of them snuggled together.

Give them plenty of wet food, especially if Dora is having a problem. But give it in several small meals. (Kitten food or pouches.) Kittens have small tums and can't get much in in one go!

Try to limit the dry food, it has been linked to bladder and kidney problems.

robjb19 · « **Reply #27 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:26:29 PM »

I will try get a few more pics of dora soon as the colouring looks differant on them pics shes more grey has anyone got a clue as to what breed they have in them,

Bazsmum · « **Reply #25 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:21:45 PM »

Yes defo keep them mixed wet & dry is best making sure they always have access to fresh water

forever_missing_my_boys(Lisa) · « **Reply #24 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:20:18 PM »

yes kittens can have dry food but its best if u give them wet food aswell

they tend to like a bit of both

you need to download this... http://www.vso-software.fr/products/image_resizer/ ....its free and this will make the pic smaller

ditto on another tray....they can be fussy lol!

How much is that one.....does it clump or stay in the ball shapes?

robjb19 · « **Reply #15 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:10:30 PM »

hi well let me know who i need to send the pics to

robjb19 · « **Reply #14 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:09:05 PM »

we use the new bob martin litter like little orund white balls?

Hippykitty · « **Reply #13 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:08:47 PM »

When she does this, don't tell her off, just gently sit her in her tray (which should be kept fairly clean), talk softly to her, scratch at the litter with your finger and GENTLY push her rear end down. She'll jump straight off, but will get the idea.

If she's been clean before and has only just started this, definitely get her checked.

Lisa is right, the male shouldn't smell at this age, only unneutered adult toms smell. The vet would advise you at what age to have him neutered. Don't go all squeamish, like a lot of men

it really is best for him, otherwise he could get killed by traffic, or infection when he goes looking for 'love'.

PS just seen your last post. Take him with dora when she goes to the vet.

forever_missing_my_boys(Lisa) · « **Reply #12 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:08:05 PM »

yea that may be a good idea as some cats like there own tray to use

robjb19 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 27, 2007, 15:06:34 PM »

My kitten Maisey will do this as she likes the litter tray to be clean......she's very fussy and wont go in even if there's only a couple of wee wee's in (the madam lol)

Also what litter do you use???

forever_missing_my_boys(Lisa) · « **Reply #7 on:** May 27, 2007, 14:51:58 PM »

i like the name dora (dora explorer )

what do u mean oscar is a bit smelly ?
his wee shouldnt smell at 11 weeks old

the males wee only smells from about 6 -7mths if they r not neutered

robjb19 · « **Reply #6 on:** May 27, 2007, 14:49:23 PM »

hi they are about 11 weeks old, lol at tidying clothes , no its just like the odd garment, coats and tshirts are the fav lol, it has only just started so I will book her in the vets this week , to be honets I wouldnt say it a confidence problem lol as dora is realy energetic and freindly and very curious hence the name dora (dora the explorer), Oscar the male do not have any problems yet other than being a bit smelly lol,

dora has only just started weeing on stuff this week I think it is down to a water problem to be honest, and shecan get to the tray easy,

thanks
Rob, Lia and baby Kaiesha
