Mother cat losing weight and has diarrhea?

There are many reasons why she could be losing weight and having diarrhea. Take her into your local Veterinarian to have her checked and also bring in a sample of her feces for the Vet to check for parasites too. Be sure you are feeding her a good quality of dry cat food and not some cheap generic brand. Is she up to date on her vaccinations? The nursing kittens will take a lot out of her so that is why she should be on a very good quality dry Kitten food while nursing, then switch her back to regular adult cat dry food after finished nursing the kittens. You need to find out for sure what the problem is first. The only answer is to take her into your Veterinarian and have her checked out.

How much does it cost to feed a cat each year?

That depends on the quality of food and how much the cat needs to eat. The absolute minimum I spend on one small inactive cat is $.50 per day or around $185.00 per year. That's one 5.5oz can per day of a medium quality national brand cat food and does not include supplementation with dry food and treats. A larger active cat will likely need more food.


Should a really thin cat be taken from her nursing kittens?

No, the kittens need all the milk they can get. Just feed her better food and help her not be so thin. You can help by nursing the kittens yourself as well at intervals if they are still hungry, but the kittens should NOT be separated from their mother, especially when you can help them.
