    At 4 weeks introduce the kittens to soft food then at 5 to soft and hard. At 6 weeks they should be weaned and your vet can fix her then. And they can help ypu find good homes for those kittens.

    When the kits are about 8 weeks old, get her spayed - so call your vet and schedule it now. Keep the kittens for 10-12 weeks before you rehome them.

    Hi, best to ask your vet. Our vets prefer to do it once the kittens have weaned and the milk has dried up.

    Please don't let her out as she can now get pregnant again, we have trapped a mum and kits before only to find that she is ready to have her next litter shortly after we homed her first! Nightmare!

    you could spay her after her kittens are sufficiently massive to consume good nutrition. Our vet informed us that once their tooth boost in, there's a huge gamble they might chew her nipple and reason injury. verify alongside with your vet and verify the kitten's tooth. additionally, bearing directly to a similar day being pregnant component....except she's strictly an exterior cat, she would be able of not get prego lower back. She'll be waay to busy together with her new clutter. merely make confident she does not weigh down or abandon her kittens. shop them close to to her so she's preoccupied.

    After the kittens are completely weaned and she is no longer swollen in her mammary area from milk. Just keep her in as she can get pregnant again right away!
