I have a new foster litter or three 5-6 week olds who I've had for 10 days. One girl, Lumi was gaining weight slowly, 2 1/2 oz in a week, so I boiled up some chicken tenders to add to her food. She thinks it's candy. She's gained another 2 oz since Saturday. Although she's not a great eater, tonight she refused dinner. She hadn't eaten since 12:30 when I tried to feed her at 5. Absolutely refused. Finally at 9:30, she ate a little Wellness kitten wet food and then some shreds of chicken by hand as usual. Usually she is vicious in trying to keep me from giving her brother and sister from getting some. Tonight, I had to give her smaller pieces which she did eat, and she didn't care if the others got any. I remember with my litter of 7 last winter, that I had a day or two with one of them when one didn't eat well and I wondered if teeth were coming in and bothering her. Any thoughts on this?
