Question
We have two cats about 1 year old.  Sparkle had her kitties first and Whisker one week later.  My ? is, will they be aggresive towards each others babies?  Or can we keep them together in the garage?

Answer
Gretchen,

I'm very sorry I didn't answer your question earlier but the hard drive in my computer died and I was just able to get it replaced.

Kittens and mothercats are interchangable. Most mother cats will take care of other kittens too. There shouldn't be any problem in keeping them all together. The important thing is that the babies are nursing, it doesn't matter who it is from.
