fostering kittens?

Question

i am going to foster kittens that are about 4-6 weeks old. i just wanted some info on how i am suppose to care for them, like what i should and shouldnt do. there are two of them, and they can eat hard food.

Answer 1

Who are you fostering them for????????? I work at a cat shelter and set up foster homes for all our kittens. We give ALL INFORMATION on feeding and care WITH the kittens. Hopefully if you are doing it for an organization...they will let you know.

Answer 2

As kittens they will need little things that will cost you little. First, they will need attention, and lots of it. Be sure to through in lots and lots of love. Hugs and kisses work very well. Talk to them, pick them up when they want or need it, play alittle or alot with them. What ever time you can afford. Warm milk is always good this time of year. as well as foods that are designed for kittens. Toys can include anything that moves. Milk bottle tops, toilet paper rolls, cut into smaller cylinders, and small pieces of waded up paper. Give them patience. Remember, they are babys, and try not to get to attached to them (lol). Good luck and injoy.

Answer 3

Just make sure they always have a full dish of food, and water, & know where the liter box is. A lot of people think giving them a dish of milk is good, but I've heard it gives cats a loose stool. Most kitten food has calcium in it.

Answer 4

♥ as long as you dont step on them then your ok, and if there is 2 of them then they can entertain themselves. the first night may result in kitty crys for mamma cat, just try to snuggles them to sleep, they need you warmth for comfort. (they like armpits alot!) if they are needy then give them special time alone for snuggles! ♥

Answer 5

If they can eat food and drink water you're set. 4-6 weeks is the age they can leave their mother safely.

Answer 6

feed them organic milk with a babby bottle
