Hi everyone, I joined in hopes of getting a little advice at this late hour. I have a neighborhood cat who occasionally comes around to eat, and who sometimes stays inside with me during poor weather. She had a litter not long ago underneath my front porch, and I took in the 2 kittens that survived. (I was trying to find them homes and got too atatched :/) Now she’s come back pregnant again, and today she walked in my door and decided to have her kittens in my house before I knew what was going on. I tried to coax her onto a blanket, but she insisted on walking around and, unfortunately, having the kittens on my carpet. Now however, she has done nothing to take care of them. She will sniff them and move them, but hasn’t made any effort to clean or feed them. It has been over an hour now, and I know she has more kittens coming, but I’m worried for the ones that are already here. They are very cold, so I’ve put small blankets around them. What should I do now? Should I feed them or wait on the mother. And despite the blankets they are still rather cold, so should I try the water bottle trick? Any help would be soooo much appreciated. I’m trying to hurry and do as much research as I can–but I’m feeling at a loss!
