I keep seeing a lot of threads about lost kittens recently and it breaks my heart. I wanted to share a good news story to lift some hearts!
If you haven't read my earlier posts, I'll catch you up. My baby had her babies on Monday March 4th. Two of them came out in the same birthing sack. The larger of the two was still small compared to her other five babies, but the smaller of the twins was extremely small. 56.2 grams. She wasn't moving or breathing, had to suction her mouth, rub her down really good, and hold her head up for her so she could eat.
She gained weight fantastically, (although she is still over 1/4 smaller in size than all the other kittens.) On March 11th, exactly one week old, her eyes were fully opened! Days ahead of all the others. At just over two weeks, my little fighter girl is already running at full speed on her little stubby legs. Keeps hopping over the edge of the box to try and explore the living room! Despite being so little, she is the most developed (and seemingly the smartest, she goes and looks for mama's milk instead of waiting for mama to come to the box!) I've had to pile a folded blanket up in front of the box to try and deter her lol.
I know how hard it can be to lose a kitten, and I am sorry for all the losses that have happened. It's horrible, especially when you can't figure out why and nothing you do stops the decline. I am not trying to demean those poor babies death, I just want to make someone smile.
Here's my beautiful little Hemi:
The second smallest, her twinnie. (I have no clue where the bobtails came from. Mossy doesn't have it in her, so must be from Big Boy. Only two that have bobbies.)
RAWR! I'm fierce!
Lets explore! (Why yes, that IS a big clump of black ca thair on my floor! lol)
I found you!
