Yes, I have alot of questions revolving Bailey (what we've deciding to call her). :]

She's very active and hates being trapped up in a box or, in that video, two pillows so I could video tape her. She cries and cries until I pick her up.

Anyways, how old does she look?

And If you have anything to say or just shoot at me, shoot! :D

I found her on rail road tracks. :(

Yes her eyes are still blue, I was hoping they'd stay that way. They're a dark blue.

We're taking her to a pet store that just opened up around here where you can take the animals inside. We're going to ask how to feed her and other things we should know.

I'd say in the 4-5 weeks area. I just got a kitten that is 6 weeks old and he looks different from Bailey (comparing fuzziness, size and body).

Try taking him to Petsmart or Petco and asking one of the people in the grooming department. (Assuming you don't want to spend the money on a vet quite yet). They'd be able to help you, and it would be free.

This is my cat Jaffa (this was taken when she was 3 weeks old)

This is Jimmy (this was taken when he was 5 weeks old)

This might give you an idea on how old your little one is. I'd guess 4 weeks. But taking her to a vet is more of a guarantee. I found Jaffa abandoned, so I had to get an idea of age from the vet. But Jimmy was definitly 5 weeks old. Family member gave him to us because the mother cat stopped feeding him and was rejecting him for some reason.
Anyway lol I'm getting off track, I know most people are saying 8 weeks, but I really think she is younger than that. She has the round head and blue eyes which is a sign of very young kittens too.
Take her into the vet when you go to buy the formula and stuff, and they will most proably answer all your questions without you having to make an appointment and pay lol. that's what i did for Jaffa.
Congratulations on your new family member :) Bailey is a cute name!

She looks to be about 6 weeks old, since you found her as a "stray" be sure to get her vet checked for Feline Leukemia, it is important, it only takes a few minutes. As for getting kitty formula, I just got a baby kitten, and I just feed him kitten cereal, which is kitten chow softened with milk, then heated to barely warm. I mix a fresh batch every morning and keep it in the fridge, offering it three or four times a day, the rest of the time I offer dry food and water. The other four cats help with the training too.

She's about 5 weeks old. How much does she weigh? Kittens will way about 1 lb. per month, so a 5 week old kitten will weight about 1.25 lbs. She should be old enough to eat canned kittenfood, maybe mixed with a little kitten milk replacer. Make sure she gets properly dewormed and soon (use pyrantel pamoate). In 3 weeks she can get her first vet visit and vaccines and be checked for other parasites. Very cute!!! :)

we had just recently found a kitten in the median of a hwy and our vet in the family said she was about 5 or 6 weeks, She is a little larger than your baby, so i'm guessing she may be 4 or 5 weeks. I would take to her a vet to make sure she is healthy. Hope all goes well, she sure is a cutie!

We had a mind-blowing mom cat - very experienced - and the only time she ate or missed her very own grew to become into in the event that they have been deformed/ill. A pussycat will kill kittens to guard his territory. Your 4 mths previous kittens are too youthful, yet is there a daddy around? - the father might probably kill them. yet another danger is that she concealed them from you. mom cats tend to try this in the event that they experience the kittens are threatened. If she has hidden them they're secure, yet once you come across them she will circulate them lower back. She could comprehend what she is doing because of the fact she has already had a clutter, so I doubt her might abandon them for no reason.

She looks very, very young.
Probably was not even weaned yet.
You can buy a small bottle with kitten formula at your local Wal-mart or pet store for pretty cheap.
She may need that to supplement the kitten food, I assume you are giving her.
She cries, because she still should be w/ her mother, probably.

Ask at the vet, her age. They will tell you exactly what you need to do for her to stay healthy.

I'd have to go with the 4 week age group. I have had one kitten that I know for sure was 5 weeks when I got her, and had another adopt me when he was 5 weeks. She looks to be a little younger. What a cutie!

The kitten looks like it could be 4 weeks to 5 weeks.

2007-07-31 16:24:14 · answer #9 · answered by Anonymous · 0 0

just about 6 weeks. Which is the youngest you should ween them. She is fairly good with her coordination, but still cute enough to be awkward. So I'd say nearly 6 weeks.

She should be OK. It's good that she doesn't like being alone and is good with people. She's been around people, so you might want to let them know she's gone to a good home.

Congratulations! you are a cat mama!
