It has been a busy lack of sleep 4 weeks. But the three stooges (the foster kittens) have survived and thrived. Now I am trying to get them into soft food. Oh so messy!
The white and orange male is the biggest eater/complainer. He eats so much them vomits. But I now stop him from over eating. The rest are normal at feeding time.
The gloves are for my protection from tiny claws.
Bobtail is always a hungry female.
The tortoise is very relaxed and loves to have her belly rubbed after a meal.
Feeding the male, again. I have de-wormed them and will have to again. The white one ate the clay litter in the litter pan. I had to give him laxatone to get the GI track mobile. A first in all the years I have worked with kittens- litter eating. One cool thing, a human baby wipe warmer is the best. My kittens are clean and never complain about the cold wipe. It has an LED light for nighttime wipes- very handy. I have not used a bottle warmer, yet. But have one in the wings in case I have a larger litter to foster. I just used hot water to warm a cold bottle. Oh and a test tube holder rack to dry sterilized kitten bottles. That is a time saver!
This 11 week old single male foster only got adopted last week. Very happy for that. And I have three people wanted the three stooges. Very happy to see them go to new homes in about 5 more weeks!
