    I'm sorry, I really, really did not mean to make you feel bad or sad my dear. I simply just asked you a question about your comments that have me concerned.

    It's very, very easy to get attached to cute adorable widdle kitties, but are you and your parents able to really be prepared to take up the cost of having three cats. Meaning, their food, their vet care regarding getting their yearly shots, their spaying and any unfortunate illnesses that should develope.

    If the girls are NOT spayed, then are you prepared to deal with them when they go into heat, or to deal with any complications that may arise from NOT being spayed, like cancer.

    These are just some of things that you SERIOUSLY have to think about.

    Like I said before, I am not trying to make you feel bad. I, like others are just trying to educate you on the care of taking on a cat or cats.

    The truth hurts sometimes. And the quote about getting rid of the male cat alarmed me. Just because you "got rid of" the male cat, doesn't mean these females won't get pregnant. Please have your kitties fixed!

    Glad to hear you are going to get them spayed... no excuses this time. You are now informed.

    The only problem with kittens using the same litterbox as an adult kitty is is the litterbox has clumping litter in it. Clumping litter can kill little kittens because it sticks to their fur and gets into their stomachs, where they can't pass it through their little bodies

    Rule of thumb with litterboxes: one litterbox for each cat you have plus one. So.... two cats shold ideally have 3 litterboxes. Sounds like a lot, but it does proove to be a useful rule

    Your getting 2 spaded, what about the other 2 kittens and mom? I'm sure a vet would give a discount to fix all the kittens and mom. When you adopt out the others they will be fixed and not reproducing.

    Here's an FYI fact for you
    A female cat can get pregnant as young as four months old and have three litters of kittens in one year. In seven years, starting with 1 unspayed female cat + 1 unneutered male cat this can result in an offspring of 420,000 kittens...
    Owned by my 8 precious furry kids... My 3 daughters Cindy & Abby & Aly and 5 sons Skinny, Stephen, Carson, Fuzzmuzz and Franklin.
    Owned by two special canine sons Coco and Snoopy and two canine daughters, Sadie and Gretchen
