I have been waiting for my two Tonkinese kittens from different mums but same dad to mature and bring them home. I first met them at 4-5 weeks of age. The little boy was smaller but had plenty of energy.
Unfortunately the little boy is not thriving and a couple of his siblings have died. I think mum's milk dried up early and he was slow to take solid foods. The breeder does not have the time to supervise and monitor his food intake. We have the time to and want to get him home to look after him asap.
I am scared it may not be the right decision. He is probably 7 weeks old. Looking back he probably wasn't as well groomed as the little girl either so he "perhaps" has missed out all round. I think his half sister is 8 weeks old but I also don't want to disadvantage her by taking her away too early but feel it is important he has sibling company when he comes home.
Would love some advice or comments.
