Does a Siamese cat prefer one person over others?




I have a Siamese look a like kitten that was born to a stray that did not look Siamese. She had two more kittens that both had different markings. The mother and other kittens went away but the little Siamesish one stayed. She was wild but now will come to me only. Someone said that is a trait of that breed. I was wondering if that was true because someone else would like to take her home and she is only comfortable around me right now.

My husband and I recently moved into a new house and it seems the previous owners left behind the family pet. The cat has been living on our roof and she apparently has kittens with her. We found them in the backyard on Friday (after she kicked ‘em off the roof). We’ve claimed one as our own and the neighbors have claimed the others. Soo….

How hard is it to litter box train a kitten. I’d say he’s probably 9 weeks old. He’s definitely been weened (if that’s what you call it). We have him in the laundry room right now because I don’t want him to ruin my carpet. So how do I do it and how long does it normally take??
Thanks for all the smart answers! I should’ve clarified that we do let him out of the laundry room, when we’re awake/at home. My husband likes to play with him more than I do! Anyways, yes I’m definitely sure he is a HE.

My indoor cat is very territorial and I’m thinking about bringing home an new kitten, but I am afraid that they may fight?
What do I do if they do?

Also, what is the best age(months) the kitten should be?
My cats 1 year old and 1 month old?(I think, I don’t know his exact b-day)

I’m pretty positive that my cat would try to hurt the new kitten, because I brought him out for an walk on an leash beofre in our frontyard. And there was an old cat sleeping in the bush(didn’t know there was). And all of an sudden he started growling and hissing, his tail kept on moving. Then he ran in and tried to scratch the poor cat, but luckily I stopped him.

Also, does anyone know what I should do at first when I bring the new kitten home?
also, what should i prepare?
should i buy an seprate scratching post or seperate toys?
should i bring some of the older kittens toys in the get him use to them scent?

Thanks

At christmas we bought an adorable little kitten as a playmate for our other cat.

When we bought her she was around the size or slightly larger than a tennis ball. Her previous owners said that she was 8 weeks old. However as the previous owners werent breeders and the poor mite stunk of sick I took her off to the vets the day after I got her just to be sure she was healthy.

The vet said that she wasn’t 8 weeks old but in fact she was four weeks old. As I hadn’t had any experience with young kittens I fed her on warm dry kitten food mixed with water.

She’s now 10 months old and shes about the size of a four month old kitten. Shes very healthy and happy. But whenever she is on my bed she paws the bed and licks it as she would when feeding off mother. our 14 month old cat towers over her and doesnt act like hes looking for milk.

Is she small because she may have been the runt of a litter or do you think its because the irresponsible owners gave her away far too young?
I fed her on wet dry food because I didnt have any access to cat friendly milk and her owners assured us she had been properly weened
And can you shed light on why she paws my bed as though she is trying to get milk from it.
And currently I feed her four times a day on felix kitten food and she has a constant supply of whiskas dry food to snack on
I feel so guilty for taking her so young but If I hadnt taken her I believe she’d have gone to someone who wouldnt look after her as well as I do now. Shes such a sweetie too

I would like to breed siamese cats. I know all about the sicknesses and diseases that can spread, I know all about kitten eating habbits, I know all about birth problems and how to handle them. But what I dont know is if you want to breed purebreed kittens do you need to take classes to determine if they are really purebread or something? If so how could i take one of there classes? Thank You!!!

Our little kittens seem to be destroying our furniture and also scratching our daughter. We were thinking about getting them declawed. They are only indoor cats and always will be, but could this be detramental to them in any way?

How do I get my new kitten to use the litter box?




We just got two kittens last night and her sister used the litter box just fine, but this one we think is the runt and hasn’t gone at all in the litter box. Is this normal? We put her in the box multiple times and she just walks out. We are concerned that she is going around the house but we’re not sure. Also she drinks very little and eats very little, and she is six weeks old.

DO NOT ANSWER HERE IF YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE ME A LONG MONOLOGUE ABOUT THE CRUELTY OF DECLAWING A CAT.

I am very well informed of the procedure–thank you.

We have to kittens (9 months) who have destroyed everything, including an item very close to my heart that my father left to me when he passed away. I didn’t want to have to do this, but we have tried softpaw cat nail covers, scratching posts, cat towers, everything we can and now I am doing this.

I was just wondering how much I should expect to pay for the two kittens. If you have any ideas please let me know.

No "declawing is cruel posts". Seriously. Don’t waste your breath.
As I said, I am fully aware of the procedure. I made that clear and thank you to those people not wanting to hear themselves talk, or type as it may be.

I appreciate the level-headed and responsive answers posted. Thanks to you guys.

How can I get my kittens to use the litter box?




We have one older cat and 2 younger kittens. The kittens use the litter box when we are awake at home but everyday when I go to work or wake up in the morning they have pooped or peed on the floor. I scold them and put them in the litter box but they just keep going around the house but only when we are not around to see. I’m about to have a baby soon so I cannot have them making a mess all over the house but I also do not want to get rid of them. Any suggestions?

We think they are just neighborhood barn cats. They are multiplying and the kittens get really sick. What do you think about fixing them and releasing them back to where they hung out?
