cats, cleaning of the aegean stables (+)
OK, got like $100 in pet supplies from Petco, skimmed people's advice for 4-5 week olds (THANK YOU <3 ), and switched out the clumpy cat litter for some non-clumping clay pellets that we're hoping Sugarfoot will figure out is litter. We also set up a starter litterbox for the babies in a tupperware container.
It looks like all we have to do now is keep an eye on that and the weaning process. Mama's got them covered in terms of supplemental feeding, and apparently it's fine that they're nibbling at dry food for a bit, so we can introduce them to the wet stuff a little at a time. It's probably smart to get them used to eating both types anyhow, right?
Peg is so done with cat stuff right now, poor thing. And yet she STILL helped me out with the litter switch and the shopping.

@zebratron2084 You probably know it already but just in case: a few drops of bleach in the litter helps cats identify it as a suitable poop place.

@balinares @zebratron2084 ... isn't ammonia + bleach a bad thing??
re: cats, cleaning of the aegean stables (+)
@JulieSqveakaroo @zebratron2084 YES. Don't mix bleach and ammonia.
In terms of litter, that means, if the litter is extremely dirty, don't pour a liter of bleach on it.
A few drops in a litter that's been around a couple of days is fine.
