Re: Kitten list!!


Thanks for that-i think that might be what he was talking about, think il ring him tomorrow and ask so i know for sure. seems expensive for litter though! but i suppose if it works as well as it says it does then it might be worth it.

im definately excited-VERY excited! when we were talking about them in the shop, and buying them things it just became so real. it sunk in that we were finally getting kitties

oh-this might be a stupid question, but how many litter trays will they need? should they have one each? and if so, should they have more then one each? i think i have 2 small litter trays here and im hoping they will do for now. should i clean it out every time they go the toilet, or just once a day?(ive read both of these so not sure which is right)

oh-just thought of another question(sorry, you'l all be sick of me by monday! but i promise to post lots of piccies to make up for all the questions ) im wondering where they should go at night? our kitchen and bathroom are both freezing and have no heating in so cant close them in there(not that id want to!) so i was thinking of setting up a pen outside our bedroom door for them-that sound ok? i sound stupid asking questions like this but do they need to be closed in somewhere at night while they'r small kittens?

im sure il think of more questions before long

Re: Kitten list!!


Just use whatever litter you want to but take along a good strong plastic bag and a scoop and bring back a couple of handfuls of their current (used) litter. Sprinkle it on their new litter trays at your house and they will be happy to follow their usual scent. One wee on the augmented new stuff and it's familiar to them.

Re: Kitten list!!


Thanks for the tip! she says she uses grit litter, so il try and get something similar today.

ive been on the phone to the vets and booked them in for monday evening to have a check over and be deflead/wormed(and start vaccinations the following week). now, the lady im getting them off said she has wormed them using a paste-anyone know what that could be? she said she couldnt remember the brand(which sounds a little dodgy to me!! incase you havnt realised yet, the boys are comming from an "accidental" litter i just hope she gets their poor mother spayed now!! i havnt even met the kittens yet-will be my first time seeing them in the flesh on monday! ) would it be wise to get them wormed again at the vets on monday?

im sooooo excited, but im such a worry wort that i wont let myself relax and enjoy the feeling because i just want everything to be ready and perfect for them-and of course i want myself as prepared as i can be!
