Hello, everyone
I’ve raised litters of kittens before, but I’ve never experienced a litter quite like this one. They absolutely go berserk for human affection, and sometimes just plain go berserk(constant meowing) no matter how much I love on them. Needless to say, I haven’t slept much and I’m becoming very irritable. They have been meowing all day today, in a very loud and unsettling way. They have been going through fits of meowing off and on for the last few days. I let them out of the spot that I had them secured for safety so that they could roam my room, but it’s not helping.There is one girl in particular that is incredibly loud who tends to “rally the troops” and gets them all going! Phew. A moment’s reprieve. They are being quiet. I guess they wanted me to come and talk to you all here at TDK. #Edit: They are meowing even worse than before. It’s like they are “yelling” at the top of their lungs. Mama got up and went to eat, came back, and then got up shortly after. She seems restless.
My brother and I are wondering if their mom isn’t producing milk and they might be hungry. I love these little guys and gals dearly and want them to feel better if there’s something wrong. Now mama kitty is sitting with them, but isn’t lying down for them to milk. This litter is about 3 weeks old. Mama kitty(Bonnie) is mute. Could that be part of it? They follow me and my voice anywhere I move. Literally all four of them follow me no matter where I go. 🙂 I believe I’ve made quite a bond. I am not sure what to do. I’m softening some adult cat food just in case they can eat that!
Any help you all could offer would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Whale
