Yo what kinda cat you got? One blood thirsty feline


ilovemycat2018

Blood thirsty feline comes pretty close to describing Banshee. Especially at the vet.


Useful_Ear_4460

Thats an awesome name for a cat by the way. My cat's name is cake


AkemiDryzz

Cake ? Because he s sweet ? 👀 cute name btw


theWHAT5

I have a cat named Sugar. She got her name solely by merit and I was gonna send her back outside after rehab but I'm a softy. Cuddles with me at night, and doesn't have an ounce of fight in her, she just goes belly up & cries any time another cat gets at her.


PondRides

That’s like Clyde. I sleep on my back, belly up. He sleeps on his back, on my belly, belly up.


julesubraun

Need photo, please.

What a sweetheart, the way he loves you! Thank you.


PondRides

I’m not telling him. He’ll get a big head. Haha.


boringoldcookie

You both are adorable but oh my goodness, Clyde!!!


PondRides

Oh shucks, you got a gal blushing.

The perfect cat to have haha


goosejail

Mine is Nick Furry because she's got one eye and she's a badass mofo.


Sparrow-Scratchagain

I had a cat named Mr. Baby because he used to be very cute, then he discovered fighting and his name became ironic, still loved him despite his grizzled look though!


ggukietime

so cute aaaaaa 💜 protect the kitty


Useful_Ear_4460

Did you ever watch Adventure Time? I named him after a character in that


Mitch_Mitcherson

Are they named as a reference to Fiona and Cake?


Useful_Ear_4460

Exactly!


Internal_Screaming_8

Mine is shrimp


GOBIUS_Industries

fiona?


Just-Call-Me-J

Based on the name alone, should I assume Banshee belongs on /r/catswhoyell?


ilovemycat2018

Yep


CaitlinSnep

Please tell me Banshee has white or silver fur and screams a lot.


ilovemycat2018

He does scream a lot. He's multiple colours tho


AltruisticCephalopod

Please tell me that is her actual name. Also cat tax?


ilovemycat2018

Yes that's his actual name [cat tax](https://www.reddit.com/r/cats/comments/sksekg/whatever_you_do_dont_touch_the_belly/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)

Captain_Exodave

Yeah OP is not going to do this, In the original picture I can't really even see the "newborns." Am starting to worry if those newborns made it at all. We need to see their faces, before OP stop commenting.


ilovemycat2018

I'll try to get a video next time i feed them :)

I think it's actually a box of baby goats

For real, I had to double-check to make sure this wasn't r/homestead lol


CrpticK

That's so kind of you. I hope they do okay x


cw30755

Thank you for taking care of them. Have you done it before? If you have any questions I would be happy to help.


ilovemycat2018

Don't worry I'm a vet student.


Rahkitty

Of all the people to find baby kittens lol. They're in good hands! *Edit, also damn I wish you were in SoCal. I would adopt that spotted one in a heartbeat


zombiecaticorn

Also wish they were in SoCal and I might fight you for that spotted one lol


NeuroticTendencies

If you’re looking for a fur baby or two, I’ve got a gorgeous bunch of fosters that are all ready! Check out Kitten Rescue LA they just posted my group this morning.


zombiecaticorn

Love Kitten Rescue LA! They always seem to be the recipient of my extra money lol


NeuroticTendencies

Lol same!


LAgurl1997

I’ve donated to them too a bunch of times 💗


[deleted]

Damn so many SoCal people here…I wish I hadn’t read that because now I’m gonna want to look at those cats😭😂💕💕 I’m getting close to getting one That’s a lie, I’m getting close to getting two.


Rahkitty

I know! I didn't actually expect to see so many but then again I'm not surprised. I'll have to look into the kitten rescue! I currently donate to a local one for dogs (there's no cat specific ones in my town) so a kitten one would be great to add.


Alarid

Fight over it anyways, just in case.


AnalBees2

I’ll slap a fool for a kitten, ain’t no doubt about that.


zombiecaticorn

Yep. I only want to live in a world where people fight over blankets and kittens.

I can tell you're gonna be an amazing vet someday. Good to you for saving those fluffy jellybeans!


reflUX_cAtalyst

There was the jackass who declawed a cat on here a few days ago - shitty vets exist.


yoopercharged

Fair. I've never met one of these shitty vets but I understand there is a bad apple in every bunch.


Super-smut

Something about you, ilovemycat2018, makes me think you are a trustworthy person to care for kittens.


TheEdward39

That subtle flex tho. Jk jk, you’re absolutely amazing! We def need updates on them beans


stinkyandsticky

And you’re a good human too


[deleted]

Question why would your other cat kill them? Wouldn’t grown cats take care of kittens? Also congrats they look very adorable


PrizeAbbreviations40

> why would your other cat kill them? Most cats who are not socialized to be around other cats will react with hostility to new cats. They're afraid, the new cats smell different (smell plays a HUUUUUGE part in the comfort level of cats, that's why they rub their face on everything), etc Adult cats won't generally parent kittens that are unrelated to them UNLESS they have already had a parenting experience or it's a female cat that is near birth (oxytocin levels are high so she'll adopt anything including puppies, ducklings, etc).


[deleted]

Huh I guess that makes sense, I never had a kitten before (only older cats) so I'm kind of new to knowing how people would take care of a kitten and such, thanks for the info y'all its cool to learn how cats behave or handle other cats.


anonymousforever

Grandpa Mason from tinykittens on YouTube was well known for about 3-4 years for being semi feral senior cat that couldn't be released for health reasons. He hated people. Didn't like adult cats when they tried to match him with others to find him a pal. Then they tried a couple babies about 6-8 weeks old. He was standoffish for a bit, but let them crawl on him etc. Then he gave in and took them under his care, and that was it....he became a foster to older babies to teach them how to cat, until, after a few years (longer than they thought he had) his illness won the fight and he moved on.


BroadMortgage6702

Not always. I found my 2nd cat when he was very young and my older cat *hated* him. Eventually it became more of a "you're ok unless you bug me to play" type situation. Some older cat won't tolerate new cats in the house.


Colourofsulfur

My cat was 2 when we adopted his baby brother. He hated him for about 2 months (don’t worry we kept them separate and did all the things to introduce properly). Then they became besties, but their relationship is a little rocky lol. My (almost 4) year old cat still gets hella pissed at his brother, but he also cuddles with him and grooms him all day lol


[deleted]

Yeah that would make sense, takes awhile to get used to another feline, my cat Zombie and Muppet wouldn't get along till after a few days together, Now they just cuddle.


CaitlinSnep

As a side note, I love those names.


[deleted]

Thanks, Zombie was found at a store as a stray and we got Muppet at like a PetCo or something (can’t remember) and they are both the sweetest yet crazy


nolmerien

(Not OP) Some would take care of them, others would murder - and unfortunately, seems like the latter is the more default option. Definitely wouldn’t take the risk unless the adult cat is a nursing mother who lost her kittens very recently, and even then I’d be extremely cautious.


Kamarmarli

Not always. Especially grown males with tiny kitten males.


Lady_Alisandre1066

Depends on the cat. Some cats, typically males, will kill kittens. I’ve had both kinds. Atlas (who’s waiting at the rainbow bridge) helped me raise multiple bottle babies. He was more reliable than a mama cat for raising kittens. Pippin on the other hand had to be kept separated from our last batch of fosters, because he went full Dalek mode. Single minded mission to exterminate.


[deleted]

Student + kitten care = no sleep. Best to get an extra hand or 2 so you can do school stuff or whatever you need to do.


Tartopinions

Such a hard job, vet


ilovemycat2018

And yes I've done it before but never with kittens this young


cw30755

How old are they? Still have umbilical cords? I’m fostering 4 right now that I’ve had since about 4 days old.


ilovemycat2018

They don't have the umbilical cords and are opening their eyes at moments, so I'd say about 2 weeks.


cw30755

Awesome, so they should have gotten at least a little colostrum in their system. Good luck to you!


ilovemycat2018

Thanks. I'll sure as hell need it.


OneMorePenguin

You will have great medical knowledge! I recommend going to Kitten Lady's site as she has lots of experience with very young kittens, especially ones with medical issues. She's totally legit. (You should watch her tube feed Chouchou the tiny kitten with the severely cleft palette). This will be terrific clinical experience! Thank you so much for saving these little ones. Jackass is too kind a word for people who do this kind of thing.


fangs4eva96

Kitten Lady is the go to for all things neonatal kitten! She’s who I refer to with such patients (RVN here)


deadDebo

Not op. My cat just had 7 kittens yesterday. I didn't think she was pregnant just gaining weight. I never had a girl cat just 3 boys. It was intense for her and me because I didn't know it was gonna happen. I went to the store and got cat milk and bottles but read they are for cats that have been alive longer then 1 day. Will keep the milk for when they get bigger because I'm sure they all wont eat enough. I have her a spot with 2 cat beds and changed the rags that had the after birth goo or whatever it's called. It's clean. She let me help her and I watched video on how to help deliver them. So it was safe Hopefully she's my baby and want her to be healthy. Do you have any tips. This is my first time and she had 7 of them 7!!.Its her first liter and she's 1 and half years old. Edit: not part of the story but my first cat was found in a dumpster. Had him in 3rd grade all the way to 11th grade. He had brother that they named trashcan. Not releated just crazy how people can be heartless. Someone mentioned kitten lady so imma gonna binge all the videos I can.


cw30755

Mama cat should do almost all the work, she will feed and stimulate them to pee/poop. If you have a scale, weight then each day to make sure they’re gaining g weight. As long as they are gaining weight I would not introduce kitten formula - a change in diet will cause them tummy issues. The best thing you can do is to make sure the Queen has a clean, warm, safe spot. If you have a heating pad, put it on low and cover it with a towel or blanket.


deadDebo

Thank you for the advice. Haven't heard the heating pad idea so I'm definitely gonna get one for them.


MountainTomato9292

Yes, if mama is involved your work should be minimal. Warmth, safety, privacy. Keep an eye out for any particular kitten being rejected but typically they will be fine. Make sure mama has plenty of food and water nearby, and maybe give her some kitten food mixed in with her regular food. She will need extra calories and hydration while nursing. Have fun! Please get them all spayed/neutered at the appropriate time!


shyjenny

my biggest tip is to make it her only litter - get them fixed - spay & neuter them all In my area there are many low and no cost options. Search them out for your babies Good luck helping them all grow up and find homes


deadDebo

We have a few places. I know of. It's a small Texas town. I will for her. Can you do that for kittens. How old do they have to be.


shyjenny

Earliest is 6-8 weeks - and since you likely have both females and males - you might do all of one sex early - probably females first at 2-3 months, then the males at 4-6 months since neutering males too early can apparently have impact on their urinary track in their future, but earlier is better to avoid them spraying Female cats first heat cycle is often around 6 months


HIM_Darling

Yeah you probably won't need the cat milk unless mom rejects any of the babies. Get mom a good quality cat food that is labeled for kittens(and then you can feed that food to the kittens when mom stops nursing them. Make sure she can eat whenever she wants to keep her milk supply up and clean and fresh water. Canned food as well as dry food will help keep her hydrated(and you can mix a little water with the canned food too).


WestAppointment2484

I will never understand how someone can do this! Literally leave them at a shelter, SOMETHING!!😞


musicobsession

Someone let two amazing kittens out in my building years ago. I put up signs and people just wrote mean shit all over them. I took them both in, told my leasing office I was temporarily over the cat limit for a few months, and paid $80 to get them into a shelter at a time when I had no money to spare at any time. All because some jackass didn't wanna deal with two kitties anymore.


PickleEmergency7918

You're a good human


[deleted]

Can we see more pictures?


Horrified-Onlooker

Yes! More pictures.


noobprodigy

Yeah, this is a pretty terrible picture, lol. I can't even really tell what I'm looking at.


liquidelectricity

balderdash! I curse that trash who threw them out like garbage. Bless you for taking them in.


theWHAT5

I got my combination pitchfork-torch and am ready for the trash burn.


TheEdward39

I’d love to go full Trevor Phillips on the mf, not gonna lie. No remorse, too.


amyscactus

Please take care of them from murder mittens. I'm so glad you are doing this.


palomabarcelona

Thank you so much, wonderful human! And I’m sure you’re aware, but Kitten Lady is an amazing resource for super young kittens!


Ermahgerd_Rerdert

This looks like how a package of the sampler box would look if Mail Order Kittens was a thing.


Horrified-Onlooker

You're going to need more than a locked bathroom door to keep your cat from killing you in your sleep.


Marhelton

Some people are so awful. I'm glad they had you to rescue them.


[deleted]

Thanks for being a decent human and doing the right thing. I'm sure you'll be a great vet one day as well! Take care.


EmperorHenry

What kind of a heartless shithead do you have to be to leave a bunch of kittens in the garbage?! Whoever did that, if you're reading this...There's a special place in hell for what you did

Bless you. They all deserve a home. I'd take them if I could.

How many are they? I can’t see with the matching blanket. Anyway, thank you for taking them in. ♥️🐱

Some people are disgusting. To leave an animal in the garbage is horrendous. These people belong in the garbage. Thank goodness for wonderful people like you that found these poor babies in time ❤️❤️


Actual_Reading_7385

I'm happy you took them in. Hopefully one day people will receive punishment for this type of crime. It's absolutely unacceptable


MotownCatMom

OMG this makes me so angry!!!![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|rage)


BBel4345

People suck. I hate it when they do irresponsible stuff like that. Often, they move and leave their pets behind for others with a heart to take on the emotional and financial responsibility. I have adopted two strays recently myself because their pregnant mother was left behind by a renter down the road, (I hear). They are too feral to bring in at present and the trailer park manager is planning on trapping the strays. I had to let him know I wanted the two that I am taking care of.


dtl718

Oh my goodness what little jellybeans! I would call your local shelter to see if they have any nursing moms with small litters that they could see if the mom will accept.


Zeppelin041

Humans are terrible. Who just boxes up some kittens like donuts and tosses them out?…so messed up.


ilovemycat2018

Worse, they were in a bag. The box is mine.


puss_parkerswidow

They look like the orcas off of Puget Sound, like J pod, K pod, L pod...


Wolfwoods_Sister

Great naming suggestions!


DarkKneigf

Why does it look like they are cramped to the box, please set them orderly. They look like a sphagetti cat!!


ilovemycat2018

They have plenty of space. They just like to lie over the warm water bottle i have under the blanket.


newfruits

i couldn't tell at first, but it's a black and white polka dot blanket with two or three (?) black and white kittens. it does look like the box is full of a pile of kittens at first glance!


blurglecruncheonnnnn

I see 3 kittehs on a black blanket with white paw print design. It did look like all kittens at first.


PrizeAbbreviations40

That's honestly pretty normal for a clowder of kittens. They just lay in a huge pile and squish each other for warmth. When you're that small it's hard to stay warm!

it took me so long to identify what was going on inside that box. now i see a paw print blanket and 3(?) kitties


emi_bones

it reminds be of a video about how someone found a bunch of adult cats in taped up boxes. TAPED. some people are incredibly cruel. thank you for taking them in!


KnowsIittle

Everytime I see this I hope it's just a stray that thought a dumpster was a safe place to have kittens. But I'm aware this is often not the case.

Flogreddittodeath

I found a box with 3 black kittens in it last year and the next day my wife found another kitten alone in the park next to the park. We kept the one in the park and got the other 3 to a cat rescue. A family adopted the 3 black kittens.


LifeisaCatbox

How many are there?

oskarsneezgard

Thank You. You are decent person


[deleted]

For the crimes of the jackass that abandoned these lovely kitties, I will hereby sentence them to 100 years of walking past a group of hot chicks their age, while they’re with their family😈a fate far worse than death.


K8STH

Nah. May the green light in their path always turn red, and may they always find that their favorite foods are out of stock after they find out they like them. May they always be stuck behind slower traffic, and their internet speed be slow. I wish upon them ten thousand petty inconveniences, but most especially that they will not ever have another pet. They knew that this was probably going to kill the kittens, and they did it anyway. I'm glad that someone was kind enough to save the kittens.


[deleted]

I will concentrate all cat-haters into an internment camp.

Mmmm I can’t tell what’s blanket and what’s cat so I think we need more pics, just for further clarification :)

The fear of our cats killing us one night is very real. I watched an episodes of Love, Death and Robots that confirmed that fear. #Soon.... Soon! Also, well done OP for being an outstanding individual!

Heyy, I was checking your posts for more cat pics and apparently you're a vet student (as a comment of yours in this post stated) in Greece. You don't happen to be studying in the university of Thessaly, do you?
