With my kitten she is six weeks old.I got her today,she is climbing over my laptop as i type ..who needs men when you can have a kitten.


Sorry the pic was taken with my phone, my friends had to hold her for me...i was trying not to get them in the pic and she used her litter tray ,ok i'm pathetic but i was never allowed pets as a child.

See the thread I just started about what you need to buy your cat

Thanks ,i must get it.

She is beautiful! I only ever own orange cats

'Tis a very cute kitten!

She is so cute ,she wants my attention all the time ..and jumps on my legs.I will post a better pic of her,as you can't see how tiny she is in that pic

Nice pussy, Nikki.

6 weeks eh? Then it'll need some special nourishment, that's at least 2 weeks earlier than you should take them from their mother. If you can, bring it back to the mother and pick her up again in 2 weeks. Seriously.

People need to know what the hell they're doing before getting a pet

What are you on about?

Thanks, my pussy is asleep now ..she also has scratched my hand three times.

Nikki23 said:

You having taken a cat before time from its mother. It might result in her developing slowly or not at all, but you do it your way.

Teacher said:

I had a cat when I was a kid that we got at 5 weeks old because it's mother had been run over by a car.

The cat was very small when we got it and very sick, but we took it to the vet lots and the cat lived until I was in my early twenties.

If you take care of your cat, which it seems you will, and take it to the vet often I'm sure it will be ok.

That image I got in my head there came straight out of the Necronomicon. Ugh.

Sweeny79 said:

Yeah, see that's what I'm talking about. When the kittens aren't ready to be weened and on solid food (which as you noticed is quite a bit earlier than your family took it in), then they won't develop as they should cos they can't take in the nutrients in their food. But if you take it to the vet you can get vitamin shots and special kitten milk to feed it and it'll be just fine. You did something very good Sweeny

Where is Tackam when you need her? Oh yeah she left

Sweeny79 said:

Thanks Sweeny, i basically had to go through an interview to get this kitten..like i was adopting a baby...the woman breeds cats ,some people should think before they post.

Nikki23 said:

Yeah, I'm thinking the woman breeds money. If you didn't pay much for your kitten, then it was all for show. She should know better. The kitten doesn't look like a purebred though. Ask a vet if you doubt me. Kittens age the same in Europe as they do in the rest of the world.

Teacher said:

I'm not actually asking you any questions here or interested in what you have to say..i did not pay for the kitten,you always have someone or something to complain about...thanks for taking the joy out of my kitten...


[ play nice! snipped~ Sweeny79]

Teacher said:

Well my cat didn't have any special food, but it did get shots.

I don't have much faith in bredders either though... I've had cats and dogs from bredders that turned out to be sickly and in the case of the dog, just not right in the head.

The dog and two cats we had from bredders ended up having to be put down.

so all I can say is find a vet you trust, and while Teacher maybe a little aggressive in her wording, what she is saying does hold value.

But again, I'm sure with the right care your adorable little friend will be with you for years and years to come!

Sweeny79 said:

I have to bring her to the vet to get her shots soon...my happy kitten thread turned out so well

Nikki23 said:

awwww....

I'm in love with your kitten also....


sorry, I had too much sun today....

jerseykrs said:

Nikki23 said:

Oh you did no such thing! I want to see bigger pictures of her!

Number23 said:

i'm starting to like you.

Sweeny79 said:

Nikki23 said:
