When Pepsi's kittens were born, they were close to the same size, except for one who was a full ounce heavier than the others. Now that they are eight weeks old, though, there are significant size differences.
I just weighed one of the little missies, and she was about 1 pound, 14 oz. Then I weighed Tubby (the big one of the litter), and he's about 2 pounds, 6 ounces. All the kittens seem healthy and are eating me out of house and home
; I think the girls just are taking after their mother, who is tiny and very slightly built (though since she had the kittens she eats like a linebacker). I'd be suprised if Pepsi weighs five pounds. And the boys seem to be a lot denser, like their father. (He's not really a big cat, but then he was rescued as a kitten trying to eat gravel at the side of the road, so who knows what kind of start he got in life. Plus he's still a kitten himself.)
I guess my question is, should I be worried?
