Well, they are now 11 days old. Butty (short for Butt-hole, he was stuck breach for 15 minutes, then kept trying to get back in!) has dual eye infections. I have been wiping with a warm wet washcloth and hoping that will suffice. Boy can he/she whine when I do that. Makes LittleOne a nervous wreck when I am doing it, but at least she will lick his eyes afterwards. He is also the wobbliest of the bunch, I think he may be my runt medically, but his size is about the same of the others. Junior is awesome, may wind up being re-named Sniff because if you hold or pet him he doesn't whine, he just sniffs constantly (Cat=curiosity!). Fidget and Widget are pretty laid back. They don't clamor for attention, but are willing to take it if offered. They still don't like being held much, but they are getting used to it. Am I wrong to try handling them so much? Mostly I leave them alone, but about 4-5 times a day I goof with them for about 5-10 minutes, same with the kids. Total about 1/2 - 3/4 hour each day being pet or held. LittleOne doesn't seem to mind too much unless they are meowing/whining.
LittleOne on the other hand won't eat her kitten food unless she is beyond hungry. I have been bringing her ham, turkey, bologna and cheese, sometimes some milk in a bowl to compensate. When the boys are locked up and she gets to wander she doesn't go for the grown cat food either. Any ideas?
