Have had this female over a month now. Kittens are just about weaned. Eating solid foods 3x daily. Haven't seen them nursing for 5 days now, but the mother cat's appetite is still ravenous.

Feeding her is like feeding 10 cats 2x a day. In one end, out the other. If I leave unopened bread out and turn away for a few minutes, she's ripping open the pkg. trying to get the bread, rolls, or whatever. Onions and garlic are the only things she leaves alone. Caught her today trying to eat her own stools.



Any ideas on what's going on? Stool tests came back neg. twice for worms and parasites, unless there's another test I'm missing out on. My patience is out the window right now.



Thanks.



Mike
