Re: Advice needed REF Cat's

I baby sat a cat at Christmas for a friend while she went out of town, it was so cute...it had a little area in the back of the closet, all fixed up nice where she could hide. They called it her condominium....

Re: Advice needed REF Cat's

Lots of thanks to you Cat people and much appreciation for your time and effort in writing your replies .

In answer to a few of your questions, yes we a getting a kitten from a friend of our's who has two female cats that have had two litters at the same time so we have a choice of eight kittens, hopefully some are Tabbies of which we can choose one, the one we choose will be a female as they seem to be the best of the two going on what our friends advise,

Sleeping quarters for the kitten will initially be a cardboard box and a soft blanket with a fluffy toy with its sibling and mothers scent on it, hope this meets with her approval later on we will get her a cat cave or should that be a bat cave.. .......

Thank you for all your advice.....Basser..

Basser, I hope your friend will now have her two female cats speyed. There are already too many unwanted kittens in Cat Rescues waiting for new homes.

I hope you will have many happy years with your kitten

Re: Advice needed REF Cat's

Can I ask Basser, why is the female the best of the two? Serious question as I've never heard of that before

As a child we had a male cat, all my adult life I've had male dogs and obviously Athur is a male cat. I chose male dogs in particular but it's never crossed my mind about there being a preference for cats. ( If Arthur had been female I still would have homed her )

Ha,

Ours brings so many in we had to buy a humane mouse trap.
Anything from 1-4 times a week we catch them and let them go in the woods...

Worst we had was three in one day!
