Well as you can tell from my previous post the little miracle is doing pretty good. Since finally it has taken to a eyedropper for feeding and I do not have to tube feed it seems to want more than whats recommended for a 2.4 oz. kitten. If I have it calculated right it needs 1 oz. of formula per 24 hrs. But the little one crys for more when I take it away. I am feeding on two hour intervals so please tell me what ya think. He pees everytime I feed him a good bit and usually goes number two about every second to third feeding. He looks plump in the stomach area and today he had a very good bowel movement, more than I have seen before. I am just nervous that I am not giving enough or too much food. I did let him feed till he quit once and it was 2cc's that he ate. Please let me know soon as his feeding time is coming up soon. What do I need to look for as far as overfeeding or underfeeding? Stomach should look how?
