Lord Dustin Hates me , I feel Awful

[CrazyHmissesHerbie]

Ok so my cat had 3 kittens just over 9 weeks ago .
One went to my Dsis and one to my Neice as I know they will be cared for and I'm keeping lord Dustin .
Herbie the last kitten went to his new home 2 hours ago and ever since LD has been sat in his bed crying for him while his mum runs round the house looking for Herbie .
I feel dreadful , I have actually cried
Dp thinks I'm mad as I keep telling him to go and get Herbie back which isn't possible as my 13yo neice would be devastated .
I don't know what to do I feel awful

Don't worry too much, they get over it quickly. Ours called for his mum the first night

Heartbreaking while it lasts though.

[CrazyHmissesHerbie]

Will he be ok with nobody to play with ?

I have 3 big cats but they are usually out or sleeping

[Fluffycloudland77]

He'll survive.

Can you try to settle him with a soft toy furry surrogate mum or a piece of sheepskin? Warm milk to make him sleepy.

[CrazyHmissesHerbie]

I still have his mum and I have put a fluffy monkey in his bed .
I'll try some warm milk

[cozietoesie]

Not cow's milk remember, Crazy. It might be bad for him.

He'll be fine by tomorrow morning, it's just a big change that he has to adjust to. Leave him to it if he won't respond to love or games.

[CrazyHmissesHerbie]

I have a stash of Cat milk as my eldest cat is rather partial to it so will warm some of that up

He has ventured out now and keeps scowling at me

[cozietoesie]

He's going for the Woe Is Me look. Sounds like he's over it already, really, and is now just milking it (sorry.)

[LEMmingaround]

Will you be getting your cat speyed now?

[CrazyHmissesHerbie]

Yes she is booked in for next week

[LEMmingaround]

:)

[Fluffycloudland77]

In a few weeks mum may well be lashing out at ld because that's how they encourage them to leave home.

[CrazyHmissesHerbie]

I hope not .

Mum cat has completely changed her personality since she had the kittens , she wouldn't go near anybody and was very nervous , she is the complete opposite now
