How to move kittens to another spot?

Question

My cat had kittens under my bed and the kitten are very loud I tryed to move the kitten in a big box but move took them back under my bed how do I move them without having their mother taking them back

Answer 1

make sure you take anything that she has had thru the birth, example balnket, towel, bed, etc... then keep your door shut so she cant move them again... or keep the door shut for a couple days in the room she will be in.. good luck...smile

Answer 2

This is a very common problem...my cats had 2 litters and she always moved them to a place she saw fit.....you need to put them in the bathroom (kittens and mama cat)a laundry basket with a couple towels does good for the kittens...put her litterbox and food & water in there along with some cat toys or whatever...and keep the door closed then she cant move them around. It worked for me....just be sure to let mama cat out everyday for an hour or two so she doesnt get stir crazy.

Answer 3

I had this situation with my cat some years in the past. Shes purely under pressure and desires to guard her kitten. stumble on a quiet heat dark place for them and she or he would desire to be positive. it may be complicated yet attempt and keep the youngsters far off from her for slightly. as quickly as the kitten is 5 or 6 weeks previous the mother wont be so shielding and then the youngsters can spend greater time with them. wish this permits, good success

Answer 4

wait for them to get older, the mother will currently be very protective right now, a good time to move them is when they start to grow fur, when you do move them make the spot cosy and keep the mother there a few days before to get her sent in that area.

Answer 5

Move the kittens AND the mother to another QUIET spot and set them up with a litter pan, food, water, basket -- and make sure your cat can't escape with them. IF you have a huge closet - sequester them in the closet - but be sure to let your cat out several times a day for a walk about when the babies are napping. BEST if you have an extra room to put them in THAT closet, darkish hopefully, and simply close the door to the room. Your cat will catch on -- or you can wait it out -- Mother's are pesky about relocation early on - but later they get a little more reasonable. Another option - get an extra large plastic dog crate (kittens can't hang themselves in the slots) put food/bedding/litter pan in there and sequester your cat inside the crate. Put a blanket over the crate if she likes dark, cavey places -- still remember to LET HER OUT during the day, locking the crate back so she can't relocate her troops.

Also, remember as these kittens get older your HOME is a dangerous place - so a large crate would be a good way to keep them safe (unless you have a safe room) never let kittens have free range in your home. They can hang themselves in blinds, get caught inside of walls (gaining access from bathrom counters) they can drown in toilets, escape outside un-noticed, and sleep in dryers. Always make sure you get a head count of kittens two to three times a day once they get up and moving. We have a HUGE CAT CONDO that we put our rescue kittens into at night to sleep and believe it or not? When we put them to bed, so OK it's a herding activity -- they seem to really enjoy the safety of the condo. When we get up in the mornings - we let them out, clean cages, reset their food, give them romp time - and then for nap time? We put them in their kennel -- they have a regular schedule - and it simply helps to keep them in one spot instead of having kittens under sofas, beds, in different rooms. Kittens can die very easily from the most unlikely things - like swallowing a rubber band, choking on a piece of yarn. They are especially good at getting their necks hung in the back rungs of dining room chairs when they are learning to jump and climb - - so I vote for the JUMBO CAT CONDO they are about 139.00 from Dr. Foster's (see the catalog online and order a paper copy). You could even put a blanket or quilt over it (we do this to keep out drafts and to make it cave like) and put the mother and her babies in there right now. Good luck! Please adopt these babies out responsibly and get them neutered and spayed before sending them on to their new homes. Low Cost neuter spay programs are likely in your area for a nominal fee - under 40.00.
