Kittens!

[wolfsoul]

for those of you who havent read my post dibbed "Pregnant cat," my friend, ashley, had a pregnant cat. Well, yesterday, at 5:00 in the morning, Ozzy had her kittens! there are five of them. three tabbies, one grey with a white diamond on its forehead, and one torti....i had no idea that u could tell patterns and colours at this age....do u think the colours will change?

[kimlovescats]

I'm no expert by any means ... but usually I think the patterns stay pretty true except for the exception of white kitties... sometimes they end up with color points and such later on!

Congrats on the new babies, I hope they all find loving, permanent homes!!!

i hope they find good homes too...but ashley is so picky...shes only giving them away to ppl she knows :rolleyes: and so far, none of her friends want a cat...so shes sorta desperate...i dont think its a bad thing to give them away to ppl she doesnt know well, but i have already told her NOT to give them to a shelter...atleast she completely agrees to that :)

[Barbara]

Kittens should not be given away before they are 8 weeks old, so she still has 2 months.
The question may be how she can check people: the people from whom we got our cats asked many questions and both of them came to visit us after some weeks. I think that's ok -both parts should take it serious.

As to the patterns: they will stay. And after they open their eyes they will be cuter and funnier every day. Enjoy it:)

As to the patterns , they won't change anymore . The lenght of the furr may change , the tail may get all fluffy too (my Inka's did !!)!
Congrats with these babies ! Can you post a picture PLEEZ ????

[neko1]

Congrats on the kittens, we definately need some pictures!:)

[HayleyRosie]

Congratulations on the new kittens! Pictures please!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I have to agree, pictures are mandatory in a case like this! ;) :D

[wolfsoul]

lol, dont worry, ill definatly get some pics! ;) if i cant make it to my friends, she can probably borrow her dads or her grandmas cam and atleast send me the pics :)

[krazyaboutkatz]

The kittens sound adorable but I also agree that we need pictures. :) I also hope that they all find forever homes. Please keep us updated.

[Chibi_Star]

can anyone on here help us?

[moosmom]

Wolfsoul,

Here's some advice for your friend Ashley regarding finding homes for the kittens.

If she puts an ad in the paper, ALWAYS ask for an adoption fee. Why? It will discourage laboratories from trying to get free cats for research purposes. Laboratories won't pay for cats or kittens. They look for "Free to good home" ads. It will also discourage people from "whim" adopting. Also have them give you 3 references, including a veterinary phone number and name. This way she can check to see how they care for their other pets (if they have any). I also used to charge a little more and then promise them money back if they produce a spay/neuter certificate showing they had the cat fixed.

There are alot of whackjobs out there. If she wants to make sure they go to good homes, it's better to take the time to screen prospective owners.

Good luck and keep us posted.

thanx :) but i have a question...ppl always warn abot laboratories, but what if there arent any labs around here? there arent any in kelowna, except the one at the college, but they dont use kittens :confused:

[Chibi_Star]

even so, lab ppl arent just going to stay in one area looking for animals, they probably get them from lots of places. i want my pics to work ;-;

hehehe i was snuggling with ozzy and watching the kittens and one of the kittens is so fat!! hehehe!! he's so adorable!!

Thanks for the info, but i think i want to give the kittens away to people i know will take good care of them. the whole newspaper thing makes me uneasy. i would hate to think that one of the kittens not going to someone who i KNOW will take care of them

-_^

[moosmom]

Chibi_Star

I don't blame you for feeling uneasy about the newspaper thing. I've always placed my rescues with people that I knew or were referred to me by other people. I also placed alot of cats with people I worked with. I was very lucky.

Go with your instincts Ashley. Mine have never let me down. Hugs to the new mama and babies.

[wolfsoul]

I also have a REEEEEEALY hard time believing you are 16 years old by the posts I have seen so far, and I would suggest that you get your mommy or daddy's permission to be on this website, as well as all your little friends whom you are inviting here to "be evil" and "get people in an uproar". We have more than enough of that on the board already.

i was joking ;)...what lissa did has nothing to do with pt...and i never said she would get ppl in an uproar :confused: i was talking about what she did last year when ppl were making fun of her....when i said "evil" i was referring to a joke about lissa...she wouldnt be evil here...i was talking to ashley....i suggest that u ask me nicely about what i meant before u go making accusations...
and what does my age have to do with anything?


I also have a REEEEEEALY hard time believing you are 16 years old by the posts I have seen so far
whats that supposed to mean? and when did i tell u that im 16? i never said im 16, cuz im not 16....

[All Creatures Great And Small]

Oh, according to your profile NOW you were born in October of 1987, so that would make you 15 years and 6 months old - so I overestimated a bit. The last time I checked your profile, it said you were born in 1986. Just keep turning back that clock......I'm sure you'll go in and change it again now. :rolleyes:

As far as asking you nicely, I don't have the patience to play games. I know what I read, in VERY simple English, and if there's anyone else on here that wants to interpret it differently for me, please do, so I know I'm not crazy.

What your age has to do with, is that Karen has a requirement that people be 13 or older to post on this board - this is a legal requirement, which is why she has it in the agreement that I reminded you of. If you are under 13, she will allow you to post, but she needs to call your parents and get their permission. Please don't jeopardize this board for all of us by playing games with the rules.

[Nomilynn]

It might also be a good idea if you want to refer to private jokes between you and your friends, use the private message function. That is what it is for - a message thread like this isn't meant for banter back and forth that has nothing to do with the original topic.

I hope that doesn't sound mean, because I'm not trying to be. :)

[2kitties]

I would love to see some photographs of these kittens. I have seen a 3 week old kitten, but never a newborn!

[Chibi_Star]

there was really no need for what jordan said. i'm going to stay out of this with the exeption of one thing, jordan is 15, i dunno what went on with the 1986 (i think that was it) maybe it was a typo or something?

the kittens are great!

Sorry i havent posted any pics yet :( i keep trying but it wont work. i need to make the pics smaller, i promise i'll get them up ASAP. Ozzy's starting to leave the kittens now and coming up to snuggle with me when i'm laying in bed. I've been hesitant to touch the kittens before, but i've started to gradually start petting the kittens. they are soft and fat! hehehe Ozzy's a great mom for a cat so young and all, and i'm so proud of her, even though its cat instincts and all, but still! my little baby's growing up ;-; hehe

[wolfsoul]

ahk...im going to explain what i meant now considering u dont believe me...whenever lissa goes on a new forum she likes to start off my telling everybody she is evil (for some reason she looooves to be evil :o ) but then after she is of course a total sweetheart :rolleyes: the uproar started when she said she was evil (very unconvincingly) and ppl made fun of her...that was all...she didnt even start it...i was joking with ashley...
and it never said 1986 :confused: unless it was a typo, but it had to have been a looong time ago cuz i dont remember fixing it :confused: im 15 years old, and im not under 13...i was born on october 16th 1987 :confused: if u really want proof, ill take pics of my birth certificate :rolleyes:
i dont have very great pics of me, but atleast i dont look under 13...ill be posting some more when i get a recharger anyways...im gonna get pics of ashley and i
:cool: not like she will willingly let me...:rolleyes:

What does her age have to do with anything. I am 16 she is 15 you are whatever it doesnt matter. WHO CARES. Some ppl are sarcastic and like to joke around *me being one of them* and wolfsoul was just joking around with a friend.. WOOPTYDO!! I dont care why should you or ne one.. Gosh you ppl sometimes. :rolleyes:

[aly]

Age matters because people under 13 need permission from their parents to be on here.

Tikeya's_mom - lets try to stay out of this since it doesn't involve us. We want to keep this place as mature as possible, right? :)

Age has EVERYTHING to do with it. If you aren't mature/old enough to understand how to care for a pet and be responsible for it we are gonna tell ya!! Cuz we are ALL FOR THE ANIMALS. Who cares about the hooomans?! ;)

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Ok, forget all this other stuff. I want to see the kittens!!!

How can you post how cute their meows are without some adorable pictures to go with.....

Quit trying to prove who's how old and for what reason and work on getting those pictures posted! ;) :)

[tikeyas_mom]

ya how old r u wolf_Q? you are acting like you are 13 years old with your sacrastic remarks. You arnt as mature as you try to rub off being.. ;)

She joined first then I did.. Just thought I'd clear that up. :)

[2kitties]

Kittens! Kittens! Kittens! Kittens! Kittens!

[popcornbird]

She sure doesn't seem like 16, but then again, some kids mature late so I wouldn't deny she's 16. As for wolfsoul, from her pics, she looks much older than 13.

Hey my cat Squirt had her kittens 9 days ago they will be opening there eyes ether tonite or tommorrow and it was a blast watching her carry them from the welping box into the closet then back into the box then BACK to the closet

are you keeping any of the kittens??
do they have names yet??


Our cats and kittens have names there is Whisper(father)Squirt(mother)Hazel(firstborn)Phant om(secondborn)Blackberry(thirdborn)Steal(forthborn )


She had four and is a first time mother!!!!!


She hates being a mom:mad: and she hates having to clean them


well if you need to know anything about raising kittens im here

BYE

[kimlovescats]

Ohhhhhh, the babies are precious .... I'm very partial to tabbies ... purrticularly brown ones!!!! Keep those pics coming now that you've got it figured out!!! ;) :D

[Chibi_Star]

a little late jordan -___-; oh well. I think ozzy doesnt like being a mom either, but she sure gives me a laugh. everytime im doing my homework on my bed she'll jump up, lays on my homework and expects me to pet her, which i do cause i didn't get to spend much time with her after the babies were born. so i'll pet her for a little while until her babies start to cry, and its the funniest thing! she lets out like a moan/growl sort of like omg!, then jumps off the bed and runs to her kittens! hehehehehehehe i think its the cutest thing cause it reminds me of my mom after she had my brother, every time he cried she'd groan. hehehe

the babies havent opened their eyes yet ;-; Ozzy seems to take every possible moment to get away from the babies to spend time with me.

I think my mom has got homes for all the kittens, but i also think she's seriously considering keeping one. she said if we get rid of ozzy we can keep a kitten. i laughed and said ya right.

My mom isn't an animal person, but i think the kittens captured her heart ~_^ hehe, i hope we get to keep at least one, but even now my moms still thinking of getting rid of ozzy. I feel so bad for Pif though, cause she cant come into my room anymore and i know she wants to. i can hear her come to my door and start to cry. it breaks my heart, but i try to spend as much time with her as i can. i'll try and get a pic of her. Pif's a really pretty kitty. hehe like Ozzy, she was given to us by a desperate person who needed to get rid of the kittens.

whoa, that was long, but i guess when ya start talking about your pets its hard to stop hehe

[wolfsoul]

She's not Pif, she's Fifi! Common, Ashley, get it straight :rolleyes: lol jk

[Chibi_Star]

ya! she my pif! not fifi :p the babies opened their eyes all the way today!! there so cute!! hehe the light grey one id soooo fuzzy. Ozzy's doing great, she's taking really good care of her babies ^-^

[wolfsoul]

Ashley, start a new post and tell people that the kittnes have opened their eyes...Ithink people are done looking at this one lol...It's a little old :rolleyes:
And she's Fifi, I tell you! FIFI!! :p

[Chibi_Star]

hey i like this thread ;-; hehe its so adorable, whenever i hold one of the kittens in my hands i show the kitten to ozz to show her im not hurting her baby and she nuzzles the baby's and licks my hand. hehe i love those kind of precious moments you have with your animals ^-^

[wolfsoul]

Post a new thread lol...
Do you like my new siggy? Timber and I are a couple of fools, eh? lol

ps I replied to your pm..

[bluekat]

The kittens are just adorable! i saw a solid white one before with a grey diamond on their foreheads! i love those diamonds!
and oh yeah, Congrats on the babies!

[Chibi_Star]

aww i would have loved it if ozz had a white on like that, but all hers were grey or calico. still cute though ^-^ hehe i love the sig. Cats used to be worshipped as gods and all. heheh i got a kick outta that. that is soooo pif hehe

[wolfsoul]

I thought you said they were tortis, not calicos :confused:

[Chibi_Star]

well now they look more calico than tortis :p

[wolfsoul]

Pucha! lol
if you go onto the cat breed section you can look at posts where it will say "post your tortis here" and "post your calicos here" and you can compare ;)
