    Welcome to Pet Talk!

    Looking forward to meeting you and hearing more about Marshall.

    My fur-kids are Cassy (Perspicacity Purrrsonality) and Livvy (Lady Olivia d'Flufferuni) and they keep me hopping! Livvy turned 5 in April and Cassy will turn 5 in July. She may be a Maine Coon mix and he is the dilute silver domestic short hair original tabby in my avatar.
    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)



    Thank you, Popcornbird for creating this tribute to Summer starring Livvy and Cassy

    Livvy: 11 April 99 - 5 July 09
    Cassy: 11 July 99 - 8 April 11

    Hope you enjoy it here

    welcome!

    my goodness! I hope we'll get to see little marshall grow up! he and kim's Tabitha were rescued at about the same time (Tabitha siblings all passed but she persevered!- with much attention from kim!) So they are possible kindred spirits! Please post pics and updates on his progress.. is he still on the bottle? Has he met other cats yet? (at jan's he met no cats as he was isolated for health reasons..!) Keep us super posted!

    marshall

    just to clarify reason for isolating newborn from other cats. It has nothing to do with the health of other cats in the home. Newborns are just isolated as a matter of course because they can pick up anything that vaccinated cats will not. Don't want to worry Carla unnecessarily!

    He's still in a room to his own but has met all the other cats
    up close when we bring him out.He's pooping and peeing anywhere he wants which is tough on my back but we'll
    get it right.He goes in and out of the litter box but likes the bathroom floor better.geez.
    But he likes kitten food and baby chicken and gravy food and of course the formula bottle a couple times a day.But I'm weeding off that and the baby food to just kitten wet science diet very soon.
    He really poops and pees a lot so he's not hungry.lol.
    I put the poop in the litter box to show him and stimulate him to pee in the box but he still goes everywhere else.I don't want my other cats in there to smell anything he's done on the floor that might be left over either.So my cats are not going to train him.He'll have to learn on his own.And I hope it's soon.I don't know how to send a new picture from my pictures in my computer yet.
    He sees the vet on June 30th.

    Carla, Maybe for a few weeks (as hard as it may be to try) keep Marshall in a cage with his litterpan? At least until he realises that the potty (not the floor) is where he should be going. The time to be learning proper potty habits is right now. He'd be caged until he learned if he was here. You can't have him going all over the new home in Maine that's for sure! Not to mention your back! Jan

    I can get ahold of one for you to use for a while I'm sure. Maybe keep it up on the counter or someplace high so it doesn't hurt your back. It's usually in a kitten's nature to use the litterpan without hesitation, but being that Marshall was an "only child" with no mama to show him the ropes, he's not too bright I guess. He can learn though! I'll see what I can do about finding a cage for you to use for a while until he does his thing in the litterpan only.

    I put him in one of those huge carriers I had downstairs with a litter box and towels.You can come check it out.I think this will do.
    And now he's not alone a lot.He's in the big bedroom most of the time and can travel to any room and all the cats have been walking around and getting used to him.Thanks for the great idea.
    Carla
    I think if you put some newspapers down it will be easier to pull out any wet ones. And maybe just let him sleep on the towel. Make sure his food is near the door. Instinct with kitties is not to go potty where the food is, but Marshall's got to learn. I also wouldn't let him out too often until he masters that litterbox thing. Maybe carry him around, and let him play in the tub, but keep him in the carrier for a week at least.
