I adopted my kitty when he was about two or three days old. He had his eyes closed and everything and he was in a cardboard box in a supermarket in Chinatown, New York City.
The kitties were wailing in despair, and as I soon found out, hunger. The mother had apparently never come back. I wondered if she had abandoned them or died. It would be sad either way.
I then adopted one kitty and took him home and fed him with little baby bottles, and I learned to love him profoundly.
He is now almost a year old and he seems normal to me (I haven't had cats before this).
I was just wondering if any of you guys know about problems that could result (whether health or behavior related) if a cat is separated from his mommy so early? :?:
