OK I will monitor her behaviour. She seems fine now. Maybe I'm just panicking. I left Amy up there for a bit and watched her latch on. Brought Sheldon away for a bit and then give him back. Hopefully this is just a blip. Will keep updating you. Thank you for your help

Amy really is turning her nose up at this. So I've put her back with Lucy and encouraged her to latch on and taken Sheldon away for a bit. He is a bit of a bully when it comes to feeding so I'm wondering if amy got her fair share. I'm also getting hubby to check my scales.

Am going to do that now. Is it normal for Lucy's behaviour with the little one x

Please help. Have weighed today and Amy has either lost weight or my scales are broke. She's 300 today. She was 310 yesterday. Sheldon showed a gain though with 330g. What do I do do I supplement amy? Also is it normal for Lucy to be a bit bitey with her? Are they playing is she cleaning...

This was taken on the 31st. I'm going to take more tonight x

Thank you everyone. How bizarre I woke up this morning looked at little Amy and low and behold one eye has begun to slightly open. We said she looks like a pirate too. Too funny. They are so big for week old kittens becoming toone big for the nest.

Quick update. One week old today and they are 310g and 320g...they don't stop feeding. Lucy is doing amazingly and is now comfortable to come down and spend some time with us and then goes right back up to her babies When do they open their eyes? Thank you for all of your help

Kitten update. 128512128513 Little one is doing amazingly. In 3 days she has put on 70g!! Total weight now 190g. And our big boy has put on 60g weighing in at a whopping 205g! I am not going to supplement Amy (smaller one) today. I'm going to let her do her own thing and see the weights...

Thank you so much. I've been so worried but now feel a little calmer. I will continue to monitor weights daily. How much weight should they gain each day? They can't overfeed can they x

I'm so confused now. I weighed them today: Kitten 1 160g Kitten 2 190g How can they have gained that much is that possible? Kitten 2 I believe could of because he is always attached but kitten 1 has gained more and that's the one I've supplemented and hardly see feed off of her. I put them...

Good news is mummy's stool has started to thicken she's eating and drinking. X

So I monitored mummy and babies most of the night. Mummy was restless and didn't seem bothered with letting them suckle and then when she did the big boy muscled his way on and he won't let the other have a go. I can't be 100% sure that she hasn't had a go but I feel like she hasn't. I fed her...

Thank you very much. Is it normal for mummy to have loose stool. She made it to the litter tray ok. Very runny and brown colour no blood that I could see. She buried it had a clean and has gone back up. Sorry for all the questions x

Is it typical for mummy to want a break? I just went in the room to check and she came out of the nest and is now sitting downstairs. Kittens are sleeping. Will she go back up in a bit?

I moved it back a bit. She has the whole of my bottom triple wardrobe (no doors on). Thank you x So when should I weigh the little one again to make sure it's gaining 12 hours or 24 x

Thank you. We did that just now with Lucy she didn't hesitate and was happy laying there eating while her babies continue to suckle. Such a good mummy. I feel so emotional x

I knew to leave in same room I did that all ready I just mean move it closer to where she is laying so she doesn't have to move too much from her laying position. She has got up and used her litter tray. Lucy is mostly an indoor cat. In the 2 years ive had her she only would only normally sit...

That's so good to know. Mummy cat is starving but doesn't want to leave her babies. Is it OK to put a plate near her so she doesn't have to move too much?
