Hello there, My cat Misha is 40 days pregnant today. Everything is going very good. She seems happy, she "talks" and purrs as much as she always did. She's been more quiet in the sence that she doesn't play so much or climb the cat tree so much anymore but I would imagine that is normal. I called her vet yesterday morning to make sure I was doing everything all right. It is a long time ago we had pregnancy in the house, as my 3 other cats are spayed. The vet adviced me to start mixing kitten food with her usual food... and increase the kitten food as time goes. This is very good for pregnant and nursing cats. Here comes the thing... Misha has been eating SO much lately. I had noticed that she was eating more before I put her on kitten food, which is normal with the pregnancy... But now that I feed her away from the other ones, I notice it even more. She is asking for food very often. I'm wondering if it's ok? Should I give her food each time she asks for it? or is this just because she likes it so much? She,s always been a good eater, but now I'm afraid to give her too much. I was thinking I could give her the kitten food 3 times a day, and if she is more hungry, the "adult" food is always available at "the normal cat food place". What should I do? I know she needs to eat smaller portions, more often in the day, because of the pregnancy and the belly taking so much space ... Other than that, she rests a lot... and as I said, everything is fine, her litter box activities are normal as well... Oh and talking about box... she even already took property of the birthing box I put out for her in a quiet corner of my room. Thanks for help and advice... As you can see, I'm watching her pregnancy closely... counting the days and making sure all is normal. I know I'll get messages telling me that this cat shoudl be spayed Yes, this is exactly what I'm going to say. There are too many cats being put to death due to overpopulation. Have this litter, enjoy it and *please* spay your cat after they're born! Best Regards, Karen and I'm such an idiot to let her have babies... tell if you like. Regards, Mia and Misha. |

Nice try at evasive action, but it won't fly. What exactly do you base that opinion on? I don't care if you think it "flies". It's my opinion. I don't have to justify it to you or anyone else. That's why it's an opinion. If I'd said it was fact, I would expect to have to justify it. I also never said anyone in particular was, or was not, responsible for the deaths of animals. No one person or industry has that responsibility alone. That is also my opinion. "Just because a cat has papers does not mean it or its breeder has special privileges or is immune from ethics." That's an opinion. You're entitled. And that opinion actually has nothing to do with the facts you posted. The facts are quite true. I did not dispute that breeders contribute to the deaths of shelter animals merely by adding to the population. The opinion based on that fact differs. I'm done after this. I don't generally argue over subjective interpretations of facts. There's no point. -- -- ~kaeli~ A lot of money is tainted - It taint yours and it taint mine. http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace |

Frigamia, ignore the ones who want to put you down. They did it to me to run
me off, which they did, I only lurk now and nothing has changed in here, but don't let them do it to you. Don't give them the time of day if they are going to be cruel. Good luck to your kitties.
