Pets - 28 September 2007

I have given them a wide variety of greenstuff but it all gets left and only the cucumber is eaten. They are seven months old.

I need to name the 2 male kittens I found according to the vet so I can keep getting the rescue organization rate. Until yesterday..I thought one was a girl! I like human names and I would prefer they end in "y" or "ie". So far I think I like the name Jessie for one of them....but I need a name for his brother. They are pretty much solid smokey grey in color with medium length fur.

A few weeks ago, I found two 3 week old kittens by my home. I took them in and they have thrived so far. They have been wormed and fleas were removed. I took them to the vet yesterday for the 2nd time and the vet told me that they can't test for these diseases until at least 14 weeks old.

My question is...people usually adopt kittens at 7-8 weeks old and they kittens often come with paperwork that say the kitty is FeLV negative. How is that possible if it's too early to get any accurate result? I have 6 other cats in my home, all tested FeLV negative as youngsters...now I am told that none of those results even count.

Do I keep the kittens isolated until 14 weeks old....I wanted them to get aquainted with my other cats prior to that. They will be getting all other vaccines in 2 weeks.

Any advise from cat rescuers would be great!
