I got two kittens when they were 4 weeks old, a boy, Jack, and a girl, Izzy. (The mother had abandoned the litter under a building, and a neighbor had found them and raised them up until then.) I bottle fed the kittens for another month and they grew up.

When they were about 7 months old, the Izzy went into heat. We kept them in seperate rooms and as soon as the vet could fit him in, we had the Jack fixed (the cats don't ever go outside.) About 2 weeks ago I noticed that Izzy's stomach was a bit larger than usual, and much to my surprise I found she's having kittens (apparently they managed to get out and mate) which are due around the beginning of May.

I'm 16 and my mom is not too happy because we already have the two cats and two yorkie's. But we will of course raise the kittens and probably give them away.

I'm really excited because I've never had a pregnant cat or anything else. I'll take any advise anyone can offer us, so please post any advise you have.
