Is it normal for my cat that just had kittens to be sitting away from them but in the same room and will she feed them?
You need to take your cat and kittens to the vet immediately. New kittens always need veterinary attention. Also, you will need to get the mother spayed to avoid new litters. There are too many homeless cats being put to death every single day. no this is not normal, when a cat first has kittens they are over protected of their young. if the cat is not next to the kittens then it is more likely that she will not feed them.. the only time that the cat does not feed their young is when she does not recognize their scent. which mean the kitten was tuched by a human or another animal before the mother had a chance to recognize their scent. Hope this helps!
Can you feed baby rabbits from a bottle?
Feed the newborn rabbit Rabbit Milk Replacer or you can substitute that with Kitten Milk Replacer ( KMR ) Feed every twelve hours. NO MORE THEN THAT!!! Hold the newborn at a 40 degree angle. Feed 2-2 1/2 ML/CC for 5min. This is of course if the babies are orphaned. If not then leave them with their mom. If bottle feeding don't forget to stimulate them so that they will go to the bathroom.
How long will a cat mourn her kittens?
If the kittens die, or are taken away by humans, it can be very saddening to the mama cat, and will take a long time to get over it. If she only loses one kitten, she will take care of her other kittens. But if its all of her kittens, then she will probably grieve herself to death. She can, actually. If she has another litter of kittens, she might abandon them. Who knows; she might even take care of them. Cats are usually predictable, but sometimes, this can be VERY UNpredictable. So, you never really know. You just have to try it and see. But I would be careful. If you were to take kittens from a mama cat, forever, then you might want to take them at six weeks or older. If you can't do six weeks or older, than do at least four weeks. If they are younger than that, you must leave them with their mama, or feed them warm milk in a bottle. I can give you more information about taking care of cats if you need it. I'll tell you on the Discussion Page.
Is it ok to feed a 4 week old kitten that lost its mother can milk?
Yes, it is okay to feed a 4-week-old kitten that lost its mother milk. However, it is important to use kitten milk replacer as opposed to cow's milk, as cow's milk can be difficult for kittens to digest and may cause stomach upset. Additionally, consult a veterinarian for guidance on proper feeding schedules and amounts.

What can you feed kittens that are 2 days old?
By far the best food for tiny kittens is their mother's milk. They need nothing else. If for some reason the mother isn't present, you must either quickly find another nursing female cat who can take on more kittens (your local animal shelter may have some), or buy some KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer) from your vet. Your vet will be able to show you how to bottle feed kittens. Such tiny kittens will need to be fed at least every hour around the clock, and will also need to be stimulated to produce waste after every feed.

What formula do you feed a one day old kitten?
A one day old kitten needs to be fed (i am assuming it has been orphaned) with a baby bottle for kittens. Usually a 60ml bottle, with a nipple on the top. You either need to go buy some special kitten milk formula. Your vet will be able to give you some. Put it in the bottle and warm up the bottle to match the kitten's body temperature. Test it on your hand and then hold the kitten upright and hold its head up and place the nipple into its mouth. Be sure to give it a break every now and then so it will not choke. Such young kittens need feeding and helping it pass waste at least every hour, including throughout the night.

My cat had 3 little kittens and they are all stuck to the placenta what do I do?
If the mother is not licking them clean, she may be in distress. Worry first about the kittens. You have to work quickly or they will suffocate. Take a wet wash cloth and gently wipe then with it with the grain of their fur until the placenta comes away. If the mother will not lie with them, place them under a towel (warm it in the dryer for a few minutes if you can), and place a warm water bottle or a heating pad set on low, under a towel in a box. You may need to bottle feed them too if the mother remains in distress. Keep an eye on the distressed mother. If she becomes aggressive with them, separate them from her and prepare to bottle feed them every two to four hours. They will let you know when they need to eat.
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.
When is it necessary to feed a baby kitten with a baby bottle?
You don't bottle feed your kitten at all, if your kitten has a mother, it will naturally drink its mother's milk. Better answer: If you absolutely needed to bottle feed a kitten you could give it "Hartz precision nutrition milk replacer for kittens", or any other brand of kitten milk replacer. Try to let the baby nurse on mom for at least two days though before trying to bottle feed, and never forget a baby kitten cant use the bathroom on its own, so you need to use a warm wet rag and gently rub genitals to help it eliminate. At 5 weeks you shouldn't have to help it go potty anymore. Many people try bottle feeding baby kittens or puppies and then wonder why the baby dies, and it is normally because the owner does not know you have to help them go potty. I really hope this helped! :)
How often do you give a kitten or a cat milk?
It depends.. The age of the kitten is important.. Kittens can get milk.. it just depends on how old they are. 3 months is the right time you can feed them milk if they are suppoted on their mother's milk. However.. if the kitten does not have a mother, it is encourged that they are to have milk. You are welcome!! -Amber <><><><> Many cats and kittens have trouble digesting cow's milk- upset tummy. There are milk replacements you can get from a vet if you need to nurse an orphan kitten- but would pass on cow's milk. Remember, they are kittens, not calves.
