Hey! I have a couple questions on my two babies. This is my first time raising kittens. (Will provide pictures)
1.) I'm afraid the female kitten isnt gaining weight like she should. Im feeding her regularly (2-3hours) and equally to her brother.
2.) They both started opening their eyes, (they are 6 - 7 days old!) and Ive noticed the female has a sorta goopy, crusty eye. Its her left eye, and it also seems kinda bulged. I've been cleaning thier eyes daily to prevent them from sticking.
3.) The female is obviously my main concern here. Constipation.. The female strains to go poop and im afraid its hurting her. Poop is firm, and a orange/brown color. Also the male seems extreamly healthy but he barely poops. Infact, the female poops more than he does!
4.) The male lost his umbilical cord already, but hers is still there and seems to be up near her belly. Its very dry.
I really want to know what I could do to promote their bowels (preferably home remedies) and help the little girl gain weight.
The Male
The female
Them together as a size comparison
THANKS!
