I got my first fosters today. Nellie a Siamese mix with 4 babies. They have been treated for a URI. They are looking good except one. I am supplementing her with goats milk and wet food. I'll get some KMR tomorrow. I will get a scale also tomorrow. I'm excited yet nervous. The little one don't seem to be doing too well and I'm scared to loose her. The mom is young and don't seem to have a lot of milk but is still nursing them. The shelter has put them at about 4 weeks. The other three are doing pretty good and active. The little one spends a lot of time sleeping. I am feeding the mom kitten food along with some goats milk also. She is really skinny so I'm hoping it will help her gain some weight.
I've only had them a few hours and I'm off tomorrow so I will be able to keep a better eye on them and check them out.
