Hi guys!
I haven't been around in a little while but thought of giving a little update on my orphan kit, Kiddie (since all you guys helped me so much in raising my very first hand-reared kitten!).
He turned 6 weeks yesterday and is doing wonderfully! I litter-trained him a little over a week ago. It took a whole 33 seconds for him to get the idea. lol He's been using his litter ever since, never any little "accidents" since... except when we brought him to my parents for a visit. No litter around so he choose my dad's foot as a comfy place to wee. hehehe
We started weaning him a week ago as well. We mixed can food with hard food and a bit of his formula (KMR). He quickly took a liking to it and we kept the bottle-feeding up for a few days but now he pushes his bottle away, which is great. He's drinking his water and eating like a pony.
Thank you again for everybody's help! I'll take new pictures as soon as I get batteries for my dig. camera!
