Happy 2 weeks birthday to your baby boy.
Just in love with his sweet face.
Please be very, very careful, this is right when they suddenly stop thriving. Between 2 and 3 weeks, usally closer to 2 weeks, their appetite goes down, and before you know it they are going downhill fast.
He is super adorable.
I'm a little worried; he's not eating as much as he used to, but he is still eating and eliminating.
Yes, he is. Bought a kitchen scale specifically for that! He is sitting at a bit below 200g, which I understand is light, but he was the smallest of the bunch, and abandoned.
Are you weighing him? Is he gaining weight?
All 4 of mine do that at times so I don't think that's anything to worry about, how much weight is he gaining daily on average?Also, something we have noticed, is his meow has changed. He does still meow/squawk, but sometimes he opens his mouth in a meow, but it's silent. Is that something we should be worried about, or is that normal?
Usually 6-9g every day.All 4 of mine do that at times so I don't think that's anything to worry about, how much weight is he gaining daily on average?
Honestly I would not try feeding him anything else at this point. He is too young and would be hard on his digestion.
We bought some KMR in a can, to see if that appealed to him more. He is still eating, but stops a lot sooner than he used to; maybe he IS getting full.
He's still gaining weight, but perhaps not as much as I'd like. Does anybody know if I can give him pure meat baby food or Babycat wet food pureed with KMR, or will that hurt his digestive system?
We like to see about a 10 gram gain daily, 6 is a bit on the low side.
Usually 6-9g every day.
