Just their version of abortion. They can't do it while it's in the womb, so they do it post birth.
Having more kids that nipples means one of them will die of starvation anyways, or all of them will grow up but suffer and be weaker.

Basically this. Sad as it is you need some high end hunting/livestock guarding line dog like a Kangal, Russian Ovcharka, Komondor, etc. to beat a pitbull into anything resembling ‘losing’ a fight. Anything besides that and it’s either a toss up or the pitbull likely wins.

An uninjured fledgling who couldn't fly appeared in our garden lately. He(?) didn't know how to eat the seeds I put down and got really hungry and slow, I thought about intervening but after a couple days the parents found him.
When they landed he sprinted out of his hiding spot in the hedge and cried for food a lot.
Over the next days I watched him gradually get better at flying, at first he would face plant into the fence but his shitty jumps turned into a few feet of flight, and then one day he was gone.
I like pigeons now.

I got a 12 week old kitten and he literally starts meow crying whenever I leave the room, how do I fix this
3 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>4792471
Get another kitten. This one is obviously socialized, very young, and needs companionship. If you can't be there, get another kitten so they grow up together.

12 weeks is pretty young, but normal. You will form a strong bond if you take the time. He will be your buddy for the next 20 years ... best for everyone if there's another cat around. That's a very long and lonely time to be an only, alone cat.

Also, he will grow out of crying for you all the time fairly soon. By about six months they start becoming much more independent, especially if you help teach them to be. Right now he's a frightened baby who can't understand why his mom and littermates disappeared.

Get.
Another.
Kitten.
>>
>>4792585
This anon is correct. Get another kitten. It's only like, 25% more work to care for a second cat. Get another kitten pronto.

Seconded. Even my adult cat got quite lonely when his brother died. He got pretty relaxed when he had kids though.

Chick-fil-a sauce 5 times a day from dusk to dawn. Never exceed 15 ounces a day of total feed. Study the following protocol:

>08:00 AM, 6 ounces or 2 Chick-fil-a satchets into feeding bowl
>12:00, check feeding bowl. If empty refill with an additional 3 ounces or 1 Chick-fil-a sachets. However if still full or only partially eaten skip refill.
>16:00 PM, last 6 ounces or 2 Chick-fil-a sachets. Repeat 12:00 scheduling if feeding bowl is still full.
>18:00 PM, clean feeding bowl and inspect litter box. If turds are a dark maroon tone the protocol has taken hold. Any other tone indicates that the protocol is yet to take full effect.

If done correctly your kitten should be far more quiet and socially withdrawn. Low reactivity to sudden stimuli is normal along with low energy (I have observed this in atleast 3 kittens around the 8-12 week age band).

Hope this infomation be of some help to you OP. It took me awhile to get the formula down correctly with my own cats over the years.
