Sniff sniff, he's in his new home. Thought some of ya'll would like to see how happy he is! http://photobucket.com/albums/0903/suher99/053ffd58.jpg http://photobucket.com/albums/0903/suher99/de275b15.jpg

Well I took him to the vet yesterday to be weighed and he weighed in at 1.5 pounds! I was so excited! But for the sad part. My Inlaws where in town last weekend, and fell in love with him. They called and tomorrow I'm meeting them half way(they're coming from Chicago), and they're taking him...

I had Teddy Bear 6 weeks Tuesday. I took him to the vet and all looks good. He's too young for testing, so I'll have to wait, but I'm weighing him weekly. He's still on Science Diet Kitten food, and I have mixed the baby cereal with aTablespoon of water. He won't take a bottle anymore, so he's...

OK, here's a pic of the kittens and you can see the size different! http://www.photobucket.com/albums/09...9/063a0535.jpg We go back to the vet tomorrow. He has not had a bottle for 3 days now cause he lost his suckling reflex, and he wanted to eat out of a bowl. I'm concerned about FIP. Vet...

OK, he's been on Science Diet Kitten wet food, mixed with water and baby oatmeal cereal, in his bottle to try to slow his gut down. The vet recommened that we try not to wean him off the bottle. He's gained alittle weight, but he still has gut noises after he eats, and he started throwing up the...

I lost two more kittens last night. It happened so fast. I checked and cleaned cages, and feed and within an hour and half, they were so far gone. Vet said fading kitten syndrome? So I took the remaining two in for their deworming, and one kitten is off the bottle, eating solid food, but Teddy...

I know cow'smilk is a no-no, but what about goat, or lactose free, or even soy? I have a adoptive Mom of one of my kittens asking this question. BTW, the 4 kittens are doing great, but still wanting a bottle. They'll eat out of a bowl, so I'm down to feeding once a day on the bottle. Thanks guys...

These aren't newborns with eyes still closed. They're about 31/2 to 4 weeks old! They opened their eyes about 2 Sundays ago. I have been feeding KMR and now I'm in the process of weening.

I did tube feed til they had their sucking reflex. We were taught not to treat domestics as wildlife, cause meds differ. One thing might work for wildlife, but could be toxic to domestic. This is my first experience with domestic and I just wanted to do right by the little ones. My meds are...

He's bleeding on his Pee pee as my kids say. It's stoped this morning, and looks real good. I'm washing after every feeding with a warm soft cloth, and he had a BM so I think he'll be ok. He's the only male I think I have.

Here I thought I was doing good, and saw no sucking today, and picked one up to feed and it's bleeding. What can I put on it? Vets not in til morning.

Well a contacted the vet today and he suggested started feeding them soft kitten food. They're about 3 1/2 weeks. Their ears are up, and they are walking on all four and climbing the cage. I tried tonight, and they didn't like it to much. I mixed soft with KMR. He said as long as there is no...

One more question. A woman told me I could use apple bitter or apple cider vinager, dab just a little on the gentitals, to deter sucking. Is that safe? Wouldn't that upset their tummys?

On two of them, there is some swelling. They look like males. Also, when do I need to decrease the heat for them? TIA!

I lost the little guy tonight. Is there any thing I can do to stop them sucking on their um privates? I have a call in to a local rescue group to see if they have the stuffed animal ya'll recommended. Money is tight right now. Thanks guys for your help.
