wta, how long should i wait before i can spay a cat after it giving birth?
After her kittens weaned. I personally wait a bit longer, after the kittens 3 to 4 months old.

hey guys, i've thought of adopting a wild kitten as my pet. Any suggestions what to do once i found one?
Deworm? Neutered? i'm more concerned about its hygiene and well being.
deworm yes. neuter/spay have to wait until after 6 months. get a litter box, buy kitten food and get a scratch post (if you dont want them clawing on your furnitures)
anyone here using clumping cat litter? i've recently tried using clumping cat litter from tidy cats non clumping and i have a problem with the clumping type.
my 2 cats would dig until the bottom and pee before covering it up. it leaves a very ichy sticking pile at the bottom which is very difficult to scrapped up. i've read online comments about filling the litterbox deeeep so that the cats dong dig all the way down to the base before peeing.
was hoping if anyone encounter this problem and if there is any way around this?

Filling deep won't solve the problem. My cats does that too, but nowadays I lazy so just scrape up what I can and replace the whole litter like once half a month.
Hai cat lovers~ I'm a student from Universiti Malaysia Terengganu and I am currently conducting a research related to pet. The main purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of pet ownership on our health. This finding of this study may encourage more malaysian to keep pets and reduce those pitty strayed animals through adoption. Therefore, I hope pet lovers could spend some precious time to fill up the survey form. Your participation is highly appreciated and the information obtained are strictly keep confidential. So dun worry

Increasing the depth of the cat litter is one of the solution but you also want deep litter box. If not the cat litter will fly everywhere since your cats are "digger" type. With this kind of cat, even if you use the best absorption cat litter, the clump will stick on the base of the litter box. You can try apply & wipe cooking oil on the base, corners & edges of the litter box. Since your cats are "digger" type, I don't know how effective this solution will be.
Currently I'm testing Cat's Best Oko Plus clumping litter. A couple of my cats also digger type too & I found that even though some of the clump sticking on the base, you can easily scrape it off. Just FYI, the clump doesn't stick together like glue like other clumping litter. So be careful when removing the clump. Fortunately this litter have very good absorption property & the clump size is much smaller.
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 would move the kittens from the drain too. The drain is enclosed space right, with metal drain cover? I don't think putting the kitten back in the drain is good idea though. If you put the box in front of your house but not outside of the gate, is it close enough to the drain? This what I would do. If the mother cat come back, she would be able to find her kitten. Don't forget to put drinking water & food (kibbles) in the box. For the meantime you can get replacement milk for kitten.

good to know. i have a deep litter box and so far its still not as nasty... she digs as much as she can, but the sand falls back in so she kinda gave up and pee close to the bottom. fortunately its not as ichy as her peeing on the base directly. i'd very much like to try the brand you suggest sadly i dont think its being sold here in penang. but no worries. minor problem...

since one of them is dead, i think the mummy cat may not be coming back for it...
hello. i have a problem. i observed that my cat is having difficulty breathing. she's always in sitting position and stays that way for a long time because if she lies down her breathing becomes more difficult. i feel so sorry for her because she can't even sleep well and has no appetite at all. i brought her to our local vet, vet told me she has mild fever and injected antibiotics and provided some dextrose. but still no improvement and seemed that my cat's condition got worse that's why i want another option from a different vet. any of you guys have an idea what my cat's sickness is? i'm still at work now but i can't stop worrying. thanks in advance for any inputs.

How long has it been? You should wait at least a week to see results.

I brought her to another vet. Suspicion is FIP. We cant test since it is just a small clinic and the nearest is in Ipoh. I live in Sitiawan btw. She still cant lie down, cant even sleep. It's so hard to watch her panting and she has a big belly even though the rest of her body is thin. Fluids have accumulated in her stomach and that's why it's affecting her breathing. The vet just administered some steroids and i force feed her. She's in so much pain...
