What to do if a kitten's eye is swollen shut?
See a vet. If that is out of your price range, gently washing the cats eye with baby shampoo should work. Watch those claws. If you can put the cat into a cloth bag with only the head poking out....you get the idea. Trust me, the best thing you can do for your cat is to take him/her to the veterinarian. My kitten had the same thing, and the more I waited around, the worse it got. Call your vet and he'll prescribe this special ointment for cats and in a few weeks, my kitten's eye infection was gone and she wasn't meowing loudly anymore because of the pain. My kitten can also see better because she was always squinting her eyes for the pain. For now, all you can do is clean under her eyes where it was dark with a cotton swab or cotton ball. Just add some water to the swab and rub it gently under her eyes and try to clean it. Be careful as you don't want to hurt her!! I wish the best for your cat, and you!!

Do male cats recognize their offspring as their own?
Yes. Both male and female cats care for their litter for awhile before they are old enough to go off on their own. Although the males don't usually feed the kittens, they will guard they and their mother from danger.
However, when the litter grows up and moves away, both mother and father will go off alone, and quite possibly never see each other again. If they do meet again, they will not reconize each other or their own kittens.
Yes, but it may be ideal to help with the feeding using a kitten formula and bottles supplied by a vet. Mother cats have 6 nipples, so feeding 9 kittens without help could be very challenging for her.
