Unless your cat is overweight, it is Ok to feed it whenever it is hungry.
But when a cat is about to give birth it meows loud. That does not necessarily mean it is hungry. Consult a vet for additional details.
Cats feed their young by nursing them with their milk. They typically nurse their kittens for the first few weeks of life until they are able to transition to solid food. The mother cat will groom and protect her kittens while they nurse, providing warmth and care.
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!
I am not positive but I think that she either catches prey, or if she's a house cat, she let's her kittens eat kitten or cat food.
6 week old kittens should still be with their mother, if they do not have a mother then you should mix a tiny bit of soft kitten food with kitten milk (never use cow's milk) and slowly decrease the amounts of milk as he gets older. Make sure they get enough food by feeling their tummy-if it is hard, they have had enough, if it is soft, then they need some more. Don't feed them too much at once or it will make them sick. You should feed them about five or six times a day or whenever they are hungry. :)
Leave it alone soon they will get the picture I have had several cats/kittens so I have been through this many times. Sometimes you can bottle cat milk, but most likely the cat will have to put up with it until the kittens are ready.
No!!
Letting the mother suckle her kittens is far better. However, if the mother for some reason cannot or will not feed the kittens, then it is perfectly safe to feed the kittens Kitten Replacer Milk with either a bottle or a syringe if its struggling to feed.
yes a bobcat does
They do. With milk.
kittens c:
no, you can only feed milk to kittens.
You'll need to give your cat lots of extra care and nutritious food while she's feeding nine kittens. Nine is a lot, but if she's fed well and often, she will be fine.
You cant feed them out of a bowl. his answer was wrong. i am having the same problem but from what i read you can put human food on the floor and they will eat. This may or may not work. Hope this helps -Nate

this is quite the...um...less smart question :) you feed the cats wet cat food if they are kittens and dry cat food if they are not kittens.
The mom cat may not be willing to feed her kittens due to stress, illness, lack of milk production, or rejection of the kittens. It is important to monitor the situation and seek veterinary advice if necessary.
No
