Cleaning and Caring for Newborn Kittens

A newborn kitten will sleep most of the day, and when they are not sleeping, they are eating. Although, a newborn kitten cannot pee or poop on his/her own. It takes about two to three weeks for a kitten to do it on his/her own, until then, you need to make sure that the mother cat is licking and cleaning her kitten's bottoms.

If she is not doing it, you will need to do this yourself. You will need to gently rub the kitten's genital areas with a piece of moistened cloth, to stimulate him/her to go potty. This must be done every two hours.

While awake in the box, your newborn kittens will scoot around each other and their genitals will be stimulated, they will pee and poop, so be sure to change the blankets or towels inside their box twice a day. You will also need to wipe the kittens off, be sure to use a lightly damp cloth.

"Save the cheerleader, save the world" - Basically you take care the mother cat & the mother cat will take care her kittens. Prepare a proper place for them, my favourite is a box, preferably put in less traffic & quiet place. Any place that is not stressful to the mother cats. Some mother cats when too stressful may not be able to take care her kittens properly. You need to separate them from your cats. To cats, very small kittens is like small lizard which they like to play & in the process can cause injury or death to the kittens.

Did the mother cat & her kittens now at your home? A couple months ago I did rescue "freshly" thrown away 4 kittens age 4 to 5 months. They pretty obvious don't know where to go & they trying to eat dried out food on a piece of old news paper which I believe put there by their previous owner. First thing they did when I brought them back home, they sit on our lap like they really grateful to have home again. There's also DMH tortoiseshell cats; a mother cat & her newly born kitten but now already 1 to 2 months old.

Hi all...

Is my cat ok?

Need some help here .

I just found 2 kittens in front of my house in a drain(dry) and one of them is dead.. i removed the dead kitten and thought it would be a good idea to put the other newborn who was still alive into a small box.. However , i just googled that i shouldnt touch the position of the kitten and should wait for the mother cat to come back as she is probably out hunting.. i put back the box directly on top of the drain but i think she has missed the kitten entirely.. Will she come back again to search if i put the kitten back into the drain? Help..

I forgot to check back on this forum.. but a few pages back i posted about a newborn kitten.. this is what happened after.

Just in case anyones wondering what happened after,
I waited for about 2 hours . the mother cat did not come back to the drain to find the newborn. Just as i was going out for dinner i spotted the mother cat just a bit further down the road digging at some sand(?) . i just covered my hand with a plastic bag and scooped the newborn kitten out of the drain and put it onto a piece of cardboard and approached the mother.. the kitten began squealing as i had picked it up earlier. mother instantly perked her ears up and looked toward my direction. i just put down the cardboard with the newborn kitten inside and proceeded to go out for dinner. When i came back it was gone so i presume the mother cat got reunited with her baby .
Thanks for your help.

Guys, I still have the kitten (check adoption thread) up for adoption. I'm currently staying in an apartment and I can't keep her too long.

She's now roughly 3 months old. For those who are willing to take her in, I have 3 packets of litter sand to go in the 'package'. Each bag is 10L.

There's high % your cat will get pregnant. If you don't want any new kitten, this is the perfect time to spay your cat.
lethargic is not good indication. Probably need to bring your cat to vet for checkup.

If you want to get a companion for your cat, this is the time to get one while your cat still young. How old is your cat? I totally forgot. I think another 3 to 5 months old  kitten would be perfect companion for your cat. Older cat will be a bit challenging to get them get along well.

Thread's gone quiet for awhile lol

I learn this from my cat actually.
As it's their nature to lick their wound, sometimes they also bite-off the dried part of the wound.
Hence, making in bleeding again.

Because you've checked already he doesn't have diabetes and all, i think that's the logical explanation.
Maybe some other cat owners in here got another experience.

Wish you and your cat all the best 

thank you
i'll take your opinion and see whats happening in the next few days.
i thought of bandage the wound, but the vet says it is better to let it dry in the open air.

With a cat that is prone to UTIs, it is prudent to try to get more water into their systems. Wet food is always better than dry. Unfortunately, wet food also tends to be more expensive than dry. Have you considered grain-free? Slightly more expensive, but doesn't have as many fillers like corn or wheat.

How do you feed your cat? Free feed or portioned timed feedings? Timed feedings is better for maintaining weight.

Males are more prone to UTIs than females. Not really breed related.

Try Blackwood?

And look at the package, they will tell you how much to feed the cat.

You should be feeding him the amount of calories necessary to maintain his weight according to his lifestyle. Being an indoor cat, he will sleep more than work out, so the calorie intake is a bit lower. There are references online that you can use for this to measure the amount you should feed him. The food bags/cans will have the calorie count on there.

Kibble quality has something to do with it, but I think all you really need to make sure is that your cat is hydrated (cats do not have a thirst drive, because they usually get all their moisture from their food, which is why it's better to feed them wet). You have to check the ingredients on the food label.

I personally stay away from corn and wheat, but the dry food that I feed my two girls has rice in it. Their coats are soft and silky so I'm not concerned, and I combo feed them wet food that is grain-free.

Hey Petre, how is your cat? I hope he is getting better. I wasn't missed your post but suddenly today I thought about this. Did you get Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) for your cat? If you didn't yet, get one. Just add a small amount of ACV in his drinking water. Just a tea spoon or two. You just need to monitor whether he is drinking the water or avoid it. Among many of my cats, there is one cat that refused completely from drinking from water that mixed with ACV. If he avoid it, you will need to force feed it using syringe (mixed with water of course). 2 to 3 times a day should be good.

That's good to hear. 

I bought kibbles in 10KG packaging. I have many mouth to feed, so I don't use high-end brands. A couple of times I did feed them Royal Canin Persian 30. Good stuff. I also feeds my cats with wet food & boiled/steamed chicken sometime. Some of my cats eats kibbles in the morning & wet food at night. Others that don't like wet food much, eat kibbles in the morning & night. Sorry can't give any suggestion.  Did you check blackwood whether you can get it at that price?

how about Eureka 9kg - RM145? oh wait, your cat is over weight.
i'm giving my overweight boy Britcare weight control, looks like he is slimming down as he hop and jump around more frequent, but this is over your budget of RM13/kg (britcare 2kg RM4x)

Hello Cat Lover! 

Since currently is haze season, thanks to our "very responsible" neighbour, I just want to remind that keep your furry friend indoor all the time, especially when the air pollution index is above 100. If your cat(s) show sign like watery eyes or coughing or drooling, bring your cat(s) to vet as soon as possible. If your cat(s) have history of health problem, you definitely don't want to delay bringing your cat(s) to vet.

I just buried my cat yesterday. He got sick Monday & pass away yesterday (Thursday). The only symptom is ulcer in the mouth (both side, left & right lower jaw) which caused him refused to eat or drink. The vet suspect he was poisoned but he is full time indoor cat, have never set foot outside of the house & have no access to soap/detergent or anything that obviously dangerous. We don't have any kind of poison in the house either. The other thing that my vet suspected is sporo but there's no blister or wound that can suggest sporo & again my cat is full time indoor cat. He does have dried up wound at the back of the right ear though (which the vet saw & the reason why he suspect sporo) but it already healing & dried up. This was caused by severe itching from flea infection. The flea problem became serious because the tick & flea drops, Detick, that I used before with excellent result doesn't work anymore (the smell of the liquid also different than it used to). This is about last month. I used different brands around earlier this month which does work. My vet also doesn't think my cat intoxicated because there's a long gap between when I applied the anti-flea drops & when he got sick. The other thing my vet suspected he probably eating poisonous insect. I genuinely have no idea how he got ulcer in the first place. The environment in the house pretty much safe, no danger to the cat at all.

Even though it's unlikely sporo, I decided to quarantined all of my cats in their cages in the meantime. There's a couple of my cats that have small scratch wound on their head/neck/behind ears that already dried up & healing but I don't want to take any chances. But I do 100% positive it's not sporo, just scratch wound caused by severe itching from flea infection they got before.

BTW, haze last week is pretty unhealthy in Kedah state. Air pollution index was above 200. I wonder whether this contribute to the death of my cat. A couple of my cats do have watery eyes with slightly inflammation which I'm pretty sure because of the haze but this is easily taken care of by eye drops that I got from my vet.
