Has anybody had a cat who gave birth to only one kitten?

A cat can give birth to as few as one kitten to as many as 14, though the average litter size is around 4-5. Many different factors can go into why your cat only gave birth to one kitten.

I have read a lot of books about cats and most of them say never yell at or hit your cat or you will lose your cats trust forever so how do you punish your cat?

In Cat Fancy they have stated that to punish your cat, you do not yell, hit, spray, etc. Instead you stop doing what they enjoy such as petting them and stop playing with them. However, these ignoring treatments also should only last about 5 or less minutes at a time because if you ignore them for a while you will also lose their trust.

Six month old kitten how do introduce her to the cat friendly dog I'm bringing home?

Put your new dog in a room by himself. Let him get used to his surroundings.

Once he is used to it, give him something your kitten has slept on, and give your dog something your cat has slept on, to let them get used to the scent.

When you're ready, lead your dog to the door and do the same with the cat. Crack the door very slightly and see how they react.

Next, have someone hold onto the dog, and you will hold onto the cat (or vise-versa). Let them meet face-to-face. If you don't think they're ready for that, put them in cages and position them where they can see and sniff each other.

Repeat this a few times, and, if luck is with you, your kitten and dog will get along! It's good that it's a kitten, rather than a full-grown cat. A cat would feel very protective of his territory, while a kitten probably wouldn't mind.

Good luck!

Do cats produce milk?

A kitten, or cat, doesn't need cows milk at any age. Most cats are lactose intolerant and, kittens especially, can get an upset stomach. A kitten with diarrhoea can get very dehydrated very quickly and that can easily become fatal.

If the kitten is old enough to completely eat solid food, water is just fine.

How do you breed a Balinese cats?

Balinese cats are a rare type of cat and are in some ways tough to breed so it might be in the cats best interest to let it and its mate be alone. As with humans we like to have intercourse when it can be romantic and with no one really watching (unless you're freaky {rarw!}) so just put on some Tom Joles music and leave them in the room alone and listen for the sounds of Cat Sex.

How big is a lot of land?

A lot is not typically a unit of measurement, it refers to a specific piece of land of any size which can be sold in an individual contract. A lot can potentially be any size.

However, in the Caribbean, a lot of land is typically referred to a parcel of land that is 5000 sq ft in horizontal (planar) area. In this way a 'plot' or parcel of land is any portion of land that is referred to and can be of any size, but a lot of land represents 5000sq ft of horizontal land space.

Horizontal land space is referenced since in areas where lands are developed along sloping hillsides, the land area bounded as though it was horizontally flat and not taken as the sloping area.

Does a male cat pee on carpet because of a smelly litter box?

Cats are naturally clean animals, so it is likely that a cat regardless of gender will stop using the litter box if it is too full, dirty or smelly. It is likely the cat will go back to using the box once it is thoroughly cleaned.

Another reason for inappropriate urination could be due to a bladder problem. Sometimes, cats tend to urinate somewhere else in the house instead of their litter box as they associate the litter box with pain.

Well, this might be your cat being in heat and signalling her fertility to the male cats in the area. If your cat is spayed, she might be yowling and posturing because she wants to play. Another option would be arthritis and pain when she tries to stretch her front legs out.

Can two dogs get along with a new cat?

It depends if the two dogs are friendly to cats. If anything, it might be best before you buy the cat to see if your dogs like cats. You can try this by asking a friend to bring over her/his cat and let it hang out with your dogs. If you already bought the cat, let it hang out with you dogs. If the get along, great! If they don't, try to keep them in separate areas. Hope this helps a bit! :)
