QuestionAnnabelle was spayed 2 weeks ago. 2 days ago I brought 2 kittens for company for her as she is on her own. She has mothered them and lets them suckle her. Which I stop. However she is very stressed about being apart from them. What advise would you be able to give to prevent them suckling and or keep them apart as I am worried this will be harmful for her.
Thank you for your help.

AnswerPhillippa,
How old are the kittens?
Even though she was spayed, the hormones often take up to 6 weeks to dissipate.
The kittens suckling, although a bit of a pain, will not harm her.
Hopefully, the kittens will outgrow that. There is no good way I know to stop the habit!
Best regards... Norm.
