Kittens born on 4/13...
Today Weighing in at:
#1 - 4.44 oz (overall gain of .34)
#2 - 4.44 oz (overall gain of .34)
#3 - 4.29 oz (overall gain of .49)
#4 - 4.50 oz (overall gain of .80)
#5 - 4.01 oz (overall gain of .21)
It's interesting to see that the "runt" is now the "pig"!!!
And the little black one that I had concerns about turned around and put on over half an ounce since yesterday, so he's catching up quickly to the others. I weigh in grams (I noticed a few of you do as well) - I think the scale is more accurate - and then convert to oz.
My question is concerning Sammi - she hasn't pooped yet (but is using the box to pee) - I have taken the advice given and got a high fiber dry food - actually is 10% fiber - and some canned pumpkin (which I haven't tried yet) - but also picked up some hairball remedy and put an inch of it on her paws - got more of it on me I think - she hadn't licked it off as yet, but we'll see - I certainly don't want it to "backfire"
on me by overdoing it - so I will do this gradually (btw called the vet and he said to "calm down and wait - if she's not in pain, not straining in the litter, etc) but to call back on Monday if I'm still concerned...
