Stray cat had kittens under our shed (adopting, male, stomach) - - Page 51 - City-Data Forum

Just to mention--cats , as far as I know--I stand to be corrected--don't do well on regular cow's milk, so a kitten or cat milk from the pet store would be better. If that is not possible the moistened kitten food should work. Others might want to chime in on this milk thing as I am not totally up on food issues.

Have fun with the little fellow--there is nothing like having a new kitten in the house--oh joy!

You are correct, which is why I suggested the kitten supplement....Brand I have always used is KMR sold at any petstore. Most cats are laxtose intolerant and giving the milk will likely come right back up.

Hey thank you and Tama so much for your suggestions - my adopted stray cat in Colorado puked up milk (I'm the one all strays know is a sucker lol), here my neighbors are giving her regular milk and rice. Maybe it's a panama thing lol Either way she will only be fed the 'high quality' pet foods - no food bought at the grocery store that's high in salt. Learned that the hard way. Would prefer water and high nutrient kitten food.

THANK YOU ALL AGAIN! I am so excited to pick her up tomorrow

I'll post a picture of Misty Rose (already named her lol)

So I had to let you all know, little Misty Rose is in her new home, bought the high quality kitten food and found that baby kitten non-dairy milk with extra nutrients (thank you for that advice!), though have to admit for her 'welcome to your new home' treat I gave her some canned white tuna delight kitten food. She's been curled up next to me for hours sleeping

Anyway, thank you all again for your help, guidance and support for a freaked out new mommy LOL She was sleeping on my lap until I had to answer the phone so she curled up in the corner of my rocker and went right back to sleep. Thanks again! You all are the bomb!

Momma cat reappeared this morning and Dad fed her.

We also saw her when we got home a little while ago.
