Answer 1

first of all bring them inside its getting too hot for babies outside flies can land on them and then they will become infested with maggots which might kill them. you can ask your parents if they wont pay for a vet if they will take the kittens to the humane society the ppl there can bottle feed them and adopt them out when they are old enough. the other option is to buy kitten formula and a bottle from the petstore the formula is upwards of 15 dollars per can with a bottle being about 3. they need to be fed every four hours. the best thing to do is take them to the ppl at the humane society they require no fee to take the animal into their care but you can give a small donation of maybe 10 dollars to help out. then you can work on getting your cat back to her old self again. you need to get her fixed.

Answer 2

At least call a vet in your area! Your cat may have had some complications from birth. Please go to a vet and ask if they can have a look , say it's a stray that you used to feed and explain that you can't pay right now, but you will save money to pay. Borrow from a friend or neighbour if necessary, in exchange of walking their dog or sth! Promise to do your homework and keep your room tidy for 2 month if your parents pay for the vet! Do something or the cats will die! The mother cat is perhaps too tired or sick to take care of the kittens and they'll die. For the time being, what they need is warmth. At least can you bring them all inside and keep them in a cardboard box with a blanket inside?

Answer 3

Ok first of all, calm down. I will help you alright? The mother is not feeding the kittens so you might have to raise them yourself. For the warmth you will need to buy a heating pad. Beeing a thirteen year old, you should probably be able to afford that. If you go to your local pet store you can find special bottles with nipples that are small enough for the kittens. You should also be able to afford that, they aren't expensive. You should take them to the vet for proper care but using those tools you should be able to do it yourself until they are old enough to hunt. For the milk you can go to a grocery store and find ultra rich milk. Goat milk would be preferable because they need very rich milk to survive.

Answer 4

Call your local animal control and ask them if there's an affordable vet near by that might be able to take payments. Also, there is kitten formula you can buy next to the cat food and little bottles you can feed them with. I found it at walmart to feed the runt of my cats litter. I wish you luck because I know you must be so sad.

Answer 5

This sounds like it relatively is an abscess, and it has burst. Abscesses reason infections, so this can be the reason your cat is being 'lazy'. it relatively is rather like us with a chilly or flu we don't choose to do something different than lie in mattress. whilst an abscess bursts most of the pus comes out and it may look particularly terrible and can bleed lots and a cat will immediately initiate cleansing the section. If it maintains to be very crimson, bleeding and that they pusing won't end take him to a vet asap. meanwhile the suited ingredient you're able to do is bathe the section a minimum of three times an afternoon with heat salty water utilising a cotton swab. it relatively is beneficial to have a seem to verify if there's a distant places merchandise in the wound because it is definitely certainly one of the excuses why abscesses initiate. desire he would be ok. merely keep bathing it.

Answer 6

Try calling the Humane Society and see if they have either a clinic or if they know of a low-cost vet clinic in the area. I'm sure that they will be able to help or they can refer you to someone who can. Also, see about getting your kitty fixed so that she won't have anymore kittens.

Answer 7

If you don't have enough of your own money and your parents won't pay, than perhaps there is a humane society where you live or another animal shelter that would come and take mama and kitties and try to take care of them for free. Otherwise, I'm afraid your kittens probably won't make it if mama won't feed them.

Answer 8

I'm not a cat person but i do know this if you cant afford you can put them for adoption in the humane society or u can ask the humane society that you don't have enough money they will probably ask other humane society and they probably pay half or what ever they can

Answer 9

that happened to my cat ., she didn't die, but she needed to build up her strength . if you have another girl cat try letting her be a "foster mother " if she is or was pregnant if she still has milk and enough to go around
we have one other girl cat, who ALWAYS has kittens at the same time as the others , when a mother cat abandons her kittens, mamma kat as we call her always waits 1 day and if the mother dosent come back to them she brings them all to her nest we made her . try that and see what happend , or just spend extra time with her to make her feel important

Answer 10

dont give the kittens regular milk, try going to the pet store in your area and getting KMR (kitten milk replacer) and warm it up alittle bit, and give it to them with a bottle with a small nippel on it, or a syringe if you have one. try to keep them warm with a heating pad, or a hot water bottle, just put it under some blankets for the kittens but first bring them inside!!
