Found two newborn kitten acouple weeks now one is about 3 weeks old and wondering how long it will take for me to quite caring for it?

Well first things first, good job caring for the kittens! Heating pads do work but put them under layers of blankets not directly on top but I don't think you need it. The temperature is pretty warm (this winter is nothing to worry about) Rain isn't much of a big deal as it doesn't fall onto the kittens.

When it starts snowing or getting cold, take them in and slowly introduce them to solids if the mother isn't there and if they are old enough. You don't need to put more blankets if you have the heating pad, if the kittens don't make it, it's mother nature saying that it's just too weak to go on You can't take the babies in without the mother of course with all the nutrients from the milk. You can buy milk powder for kittens but they are really expensive and you will have to do lots of research.

There are many websites online that tell you how to take care of newborn kittens. They open their eyes on day 7-10 but if they don't, that's fine as some open much later then others. Twitching=dreaming Shaking= the complete opposite, something is wrong.

The mother leaves the babies to find food and then comes back. She also does that because if the mother is staying with her babies a lot, the predators will start to notice and find out where the babies are. When she lies down with the kittens, they are not screaming in pain.

They get sort of excited because it's feeding time. A panting kitten can mean many things like shock, stress, anxiety, ect. You can try putting water bottles filled with hot water, wrap it with towels, and place it inside.

Make sure the neighbor hood dogs don't get to them! Here is a additional website: http://pets.webmd.com/cats/guide/newborn... Good luck and keep me updated! :).

Yyou should keep them inside in a box with blankeet in closet. Mom likes dark safe places. Your mumis cruel and horrible.

I would call animal control and have thempick up mum and babies if you want them to live. She should have had your cat spayed instead she is tsking out her anger on ooor defenceless lives! So pls give up mum and kittens to Humane Society leave the care tonthemm .

They may have pnemonia by now and will need hospital annd mums milk. I realizee you love MUM ABD BAABIES soo I am counting on you to call animal control and save the lives of these babies and the anguish of mumbeing seperated.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
