How Do You Prevent Male Cats From Killing New Born Kittens?
• Separate the boy and girl cat when you find out the female is pregnant. • Keep the female in a quiet, warm place. (Remember, newborn kittens can’t keep body temperatures!) • Make sure you know where the kittens are. • When the kittens are weaned, separate the kittens from the mother, she might attack them! • Unless you want more kittens, get the females, or the males fixed. • Keep the kittens safe, even though they’re weaned. Just because they are weaned, doesn’t mean they have learned to defend themselves. • Make sure contact with the mother is often, but supervised. No contact with the father.
