They are gorgeous! I just want to pick them up and kiss their little faces.
Poor Magpie and his loose poopies.
Just keep an eye on him. If a kitty does not feel too well sometimes they will go outside the box to let you know they are out of sorts. It's hard to tell who is sick with that method if you have multiple cats though.
One box should be fine. Just use the biggest one you can get because they do not like tiny ones. Inside of a week they'll settle down and the poops should level out.
They'll need kitten food for another 18 months or so and as for the toes.... LK is correct. Just redirect.
Boy cats tend to be the snugglers and "momma's boys" compared to the girls. I've also found the boys to be more mellow in personality and are more likely to be friendly with house guests than the females although there ARE exceptions.
My Thing 1 is constantly on top of my lap and all my cats invade the house guests for pets and belly rubs.
Oh one more thing!
If they are going to be always indoor cats please take the collars off them. I am so against collars of any sort on cats. I've seen too many of them get hung up and die with them due to the climbing and crawling into small places.
Even the stretchie collars are dangerous.
Ahhh another thing....
If they start to get snotty noses or runny goopy eyes (green goop and snot) get to the vet ASAP!
Cats DO NOT get 'colds' - these would be the beginnings of URI (upper respiratory infections) and are very, very tough to treat if you don't start antibiotics right away. Sometimes just bringing a new cat home will do this and if one gets it you should watch the other because this is VERY contagious.
Stress is the leading cause of URI and exposure is the second. Once a cat does have it and is cured, it's chances of getting it again is very slim even if you bring home a sick cat or a new cat comes down with it.
I don't mean to alarm you but these things do happen.
