Thanks. Both kittens have gotten weaker all day but they're still alive. They're in a box of their own with warm water bottles under the towels. I try to feed them every 20-30 minutes. Othello eats a little bit and Juliet will swallow a tiny amount of formula. I'll give the pedialite a try.

are you using a bottle or a syringe? I used a syringe, that way you can kind of force feed it, they don't have to suck. I hope they pull through.

So sorry to read about Othello. I had a soft spot for the little fella as I love that name. RIP Othello.

Secondly, well done for taking these babies in. Sounds like you are working hard over here so good luck and lots of good vibes to you.

Please babies...your foster mommy is doing everything for you...come on guys...get strong!

I put a tiny bit of caro syrup on her gums a little while ago as I read that's a good idea, and got some pedialyte in her. I've never seen a kitten with as much will to live as this little girl. I hope she pulls through... she's a fighter.

Forgot to add, the other two boys are strong and very chubby and doing very well. John took one look at little Hamlet and said "he's mine, we're keeping him"... lol.

Thank you for taking the little kitties in
.

I'm sorry to read that you had one to pass. Two going strong and the little girl being a fighter (come on little girl!) is a good sign. Keep up the good work
!

LOL! Already have a home for Hamlet then, huh
.
Please keep us posted on Juliet.
