Please be patient I'm new.
My little Torti got out one night and we couldn't catch her. She actually pushed out of a window screen while we were sleeping. There was an appointment to get her spayed but before we could go she got out and got pregnant. Well she did good during pregnancy, light spotting but nothing major. There were two babies, one passed away yesterday we think that because it was so small and it was a runt that unfortunately couldn't make it even though the queen was taking care of both of them. After kitten passed the queen started to act odd. She moved the other baby (we will call it No Tail for now). The queen, Oddball stopped letting No Tail nurse and would put "him" in the middle of the floor and just walk away. Now she will lick him but if he tries to nurse she gets up and leaves. So after trying to get her to nurse him and getting nothing I decided to bottle feed. BUT No Tail doesn't like the bottle or the little dropper I got. I don't really blame him but I know he needs to eat. Any ideas for helping me help him? I love my kitties and I can't stand the thought of losing this little baby. I was there when they were born, Oddball wouldn't let me leave while she was in labor.
