I was wondering

[redeyery567]

when do first born kittens open thair eyes (im new at this site)

[jenluckenbach]

I have a foster cat that just has a litter of kittens. The babies started to open their eyes at about 7 days. They were fully open at 14 days. It will vary slightly though.

[redeyery567]

thank you for telling me that but my cat only had three and it feels like her belly still has more can she have more:confused:

[redeyery567]

and do thay hear now or if thay dont when do thay

[jenluckenbach]

My foster had her last kitten almost half a day after the rest. Another foster cat had her last kitten 36 hours after the rest. They do not see or hear at birth. Their eyes and ears are closed. To be honest I do not know exactly when they start to hear.

[redeyery567]

When can you give them away to other people. when do you feed them regular food.

[emily_the_spoiled]

Kittens should stay with their mother for at least eight weeks. This allows them to be better socialized and healthy. The mom will start weaning her kittens. Here is a website that provides good links concerning cat/kitten care. This section deals specifically with kittens.

thank you But i was wondering what amont of kittens kats mostly have:confused: :confused:

[emily_the_spoiled]

The last kitten I got (Tanner) came from a litter of 6 kittens. Granted this is a large litter, but it is not uncommon. It is possible that your cat could have more kittens in the next little while.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

The mother won't get mad if the kittens are old enough and are weaned.

[redeyery567]

My little brother thinks that cat are only girls and i was wondering if you could send me a boy cat picture:D :D :D

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Well, Tubby is definitely a boy cat. Here's a picture of him.

However, if you're looking for a picture of certain...aaaahh...boy parts....I can't help you there. Tubby had his removed long ago. ;) :D

I have generally noticed that a mama cat will begin to continually look for her kittens if they are removed before they are weaned. Although it is always good to keep at least one kitten after they have all found new homes, after at least 8 weeks of kittenhood. After they are weaned and taught to hunt, her job is done. As far as determining the genders, after a couple of weeks, you will find that the males are larger and heavier, even before they begin to sexually mature.

[IttyBittyKitty]

It is quite hard to tell the difference between the genders in the first couple of weeks, but after that, if you look carefully, you can usually tell. The thing to look for is the testes of the male, rather than the penis itself, as it is largely retracted until in use. If you are still unsure and have a strong need to know, have your vet have a look at them when they are a bit older.

Please make sure that you find good homes for all the kittens that you don't keep. Make sure that they are with their Mum for at least 8 weeks :) It is also a good idea to get them all wormed before they leave, as well as Mum and any other pets in the house.

[smokey the elder]

I had 5 kittens from two litters. The largest by far was a black female; she looked at least two weeks older still!

How early you can tell the boys from the girls depends on when the males' testicles descend. Sometimes it's early (Boots was most DEFINITELY a "he". But sometimes they're shy.:p ;)

[redeyery567]

I was only looking for a boy face but the hole picture is fine
:D
