My female cat just gave birth to 3 kittens.. unfortunately, 2 died. Not sure what to do with their corpse, for the time being just wrapped them in a paper and put in an empty box.

Also, is there any special food to give a cat who just gave birth? Preferably wet food since she can't eat dry food at all. For now, just been giving her royal canin.

For me usually I would just put newborn kitttens and the mother in a good sized cage with a litter box n other basic necessities for the mother. This is to prevent the mother from transferring the kittens to other unkown places eg in a cupboard etc. its the mother's instinct to do this until the kittens can walk and fend on their own. I would let the mother go out of the cage every now n then tho a mother who just delivered do not walk around too much. The kittens will eventually learn to use the litter box in the cage on their own. Once they are used to doing their business in the litter box then only I would let them out the cage roaming around the house. U can also use a play pen or a small room if u dont have a cage.

Having said that maybe others have different and better ways of training their kittens smile.gif

Where do u put the litter box? where does the kitten do his business now? anywhere in ur room?  laugh.gif thats y u need a confined space like a cage so that the kitten can find the litter box easily and get used to it, anyway I usually use tofu litter, no dust and bigger sized particles so its difficult to be consumed by small kittens but even if they swallow it its pretty harmless coz its made of natural products.  smile.gif

better feed Farmina N&D than these 2 US brands.

If you want a cheaper but decent rage can use Acana from Canada.

I'm looking at Acana as well.. price ok, not too expensive like Orijen

totw is way cheaper,

u can change the food once or twice a year, dont just stick with one for cats entire life.
*
yup, been feeding royal canin hair and skin for a year and a half now

thinking to change

a shop near me sold a tester package for TOTW, bought it to test with my cats

they were a bit hesitant a first to eat, but at night they seem to be eating it well

going to give them more for these next few days, if they like, will buy the TOTW 7kg

My cat is still on RC Kitten, and planning to switch to RC Hair & Skin soon. Was thinking whether to switch to TOTW since there's so many good review.
Did you notice any difference on the fur between feeding RC Hair & Skin vs TOTW? Also which one which make their weight gain faster? p.s. My vet says my cat is getting fat lol.
*
their fur definitely became fluffier with hair & skin

I didn't stick with TOTW cause they didn't eat much. I bought Carnilove for them to try. So far only one cat enjoyed it, and still observing the other two to see if they like it.
