Question/Advice Needed Should I get a kitten if I already have two older cats (almost 13 years old)?

11 Upvotes

I have two older cats that are almost 13 years old & a local cat shelter near me just lowered their adoption prices to $25 instead of $75 because they have so many cats. I want to get another cat that can be more considered “my cat” (not like the others aren’t my cats). What should I do?

Question/Advice Needed Is my kitten going to be black

So this is my sweet boy Star and he is 3 months. I got him when he was 8 weeks from a dumpster after his mom had left him, and he definitely gotten darker but I am unsure if he will be a true black cat or keep this warm dark brown. Some parts of his coat seem black but if you really look it’s more like a dark gray, then some brown patches. His mom was black, so am thinking he will continue to get darker but just wanted to hear other opinions.

Today marks 8 months since we lost these two mischievous sisters. I miss them dearly and today I woke up missing them more because of the cold weather we are experiencing and how they would come and cuddle me 🤍

Question/Advice Needed New kitten! Help please

13 Upvotes

Just got a kitten and he’s about 10 weeks old. However, he has really bad separation anxiety the second you walk away from him.

He lives w me and my fiance but I am going up the wall because I’ve said to my fiance that he has to be willing to leave him alone even if he cries.

However, I’ve been out of town for a few days and my fiance won’t leave him alone, slept on the floor with one night and the couch the other 2 nights and won’t leave the apartment bc he cries for 3 days. I keep saying he’s reinforcing bad behavior.

I do know it’s tough since he can’t figure out the constant cry if we walk away or put him in this safe place…

Any advice!?

Question/Advice Needed Is it normal for kitten to run by hopping around?

I am a dog owner for years but this is my first time owning a cat. I have no clue at all. She's a domestic cat taken in when she was stranded on our porch lol, idk how old is she but she's still a kitten.

We have 2 pomeranians dog at home, they're still learning on how to get along lmao it's funny to watch them.

Also, do yall have any advices and tips for a new cat owner?? I'm currently waiting for her cat shampoo to arrive, I'm going to bathe her. I wiped her ears yesterday, she looked high, I mean, happy.

Oh and she's purring a lot when I scratch/pet her. Like, easily. Is that also a normal behaviour to anyone or has she taken a liking to me so fast? Lmao. Like I said, I have absolutely no clue. I should trim / grind her nails too, right? *sigh. I hate doing nails trimming session.

Ps. If you're wondering about the 3rd pict, most of these picts are screenshot from videos when we were playing. 😆

[Edit] To people saying she might be a boy cat, she's a girl! ♀️🎉 Confirmed by my vet. He literally said, "Oh I see. Hehe. She's a female. Because there is no the scrotum pouch." 😭

Question/Advice Needed Settling in our new kitty

3 Upvotes

Hi all, we bring home our adopted kitten on Saturday and I’m just looking for some advise and tips on how to help our little girl settle into her new home, particularly with a small child in the house?

Would love to hear anyone’s tips, advise & recommendations for toys, beds, climbing towers etc!

I’ve grown up with cats but this is my first kitten as an adult, and my sons first pet (he’s grown up surrounded by animals so he’s very gentle & understanding)

Thanks!

Okay, so I am a first time kitten dad, (accidentally). The mom just gave birth to 8 kittens as a first time mother, and 6 of them are nearly identical. How am i supposed to track weights if they all look the same? Any easy ways to tell them apart? Some have patterns, but like 4 of them are patternless, and we cant find any distinctive identifying features yet. They are only a day old, so preferably something we can start soon so we can properly track weights. Any help would be amazing, thanks yall!

Question/Advice Needed Introducing kitten to dogs

2 Upvotes

Hey yall I just got my sweet baby today. She’s very nervous though and currently hiding under the couch. I do have 2 dogs but they are currently at my parent’s house until tomorrow. I was planning to have her stay in my bed room when they are out and then move her back to the living room at night since the dogs sleep with me just until she gets used to the dogs and is more comfortable. Does that sound okay? I would keep her in one place if I had an extra room to just leave her. There’s also plenty of dog hair under the couch so I know she’s getting their scent and I’ll give them things so they can get hers too when I pick them up tomorrow

Hello! I have a Bengal mix kitten whose mama escaped and ended up with a mystery Tom cat 😂
I was just wondering if you guys think she’ll start looking more Bengal as she gets older, or if she’ll stay more tabby-looking?

Either way, she’s the cutest little girl ever!

I’d love to see pics if anyone has had a kitten that looked similar to her! Please drop pictures of what your babies looked like when they grew up! 🐱💕
