Oreo's pregnant

[catmandu]

If you are low on Funds,go to the Pets Mart,or any Pet Food Store,and take some Free Samples of Kitten Food for Oreo.
Theres a Purina Offer where they are giving away a Free Bag of Kitten Food.
We are praying for Oreo,and Her Kittens to be well.

I know you didn't mean to take the kittens away as soon as t hey were born, but if you contact a rescue NOW, they MIGHT be willing to foot the bill for Oreo's prenantal care and the first vet visits once born, etc. Then once they are old enough for adoption, you'll have to help them frind homes.

Also, if you call a rescue now, they might be able to make room for them and plan on them, opposed you just calling one day when they are ten weeks old franctically trrying to find a place to send them.

Please do ask some kind of an adoption fee . We just had a huge case here that Loin hunters were getting free kittens and using them to train thier dogs (it ment killing the kittens) The guy says if he had to pay for them he didn't even call. He's being charged with 3 counts (one family he got 3 kittens from) of anaimal abuse.

Oh, that's so sad.

Dab! I am only about an hour's drive from you!! I live in Blaine. Would you like me to help? Come on guys -- I have taken in a rescue or two before, but never a pregnant mama (I can't take in the mama here) but what can I do to help after the kittens are born?

Really?!? Well do you know of a rescue that spays for free? Maybe ask around and see if anyone wants a kitten? The kittens will probably be black and white because Oreo and the probable father are both black and white.

I am excited and very anxious at the same time. I probably won't be at my Dad's house when they are born because I am only there 4 days of the month. I will tell my dad everything all of you said. PT is so helpful. Can any of you find a good page on pregnant cats?? Preferably one page and printable. Still trying to find one.... I am going to be kicked off the computer for a week, so I won't be able to answer much.

Well, I do agree that they shouldn't be given away for free -- ask for something just to ensure a better chance at a better home for the kittens.

If you're only at your dad's 4 days a month, who will keep an eye on these kittens while you're gone? just asking ..

Hehe actually just because both parents are black and white theres still a good probability of her kittens having all the colors (and patterns!) of the rainbow

But anyway GOOD LUCK in talking to your dad, and I would suggest asking for a small adoption fee even if its only $5 or $10!!

I think the no kill shelter would be even better than trying to sell them yourself, they do some screening and usually require a spay/neuter upon adoption. Kittens usually have no problem finding a home, who could resist...it the older kitties that have the problems.
