Our NEW lil ones.... & 1 question

[prncss89]

Well it is now 4:30 and Tiny-One has finished with 5 beautiful babies. Mom and babies are all doing just great. I didn't have to do anything but love on her. All 5 are nursing well.

They seem very healthy!!

I will post more pictures tomorrow I am letting them all rest now! I do have one question. How much should they weigh? What is normal just so I can be sure?

Thanks!
Melissa

Kitten Weight
At birth, weight should be approx 3-3.4 ounces.

At age 1 week weight should be approx. 4 ounces.

At age 2 weeks, weight should be approx. 7 ounces.

At age 3 weeks, weight should be approx. 10 ounces.

At age 4 weeks weight should be approx. 13 ounces.

At age 5 weeks, weight should be approximately 1 pound.

By the end of the 8th week, kittens should weigh approximately 2.2 pounds.

Of course, all these weights are approximate. You may have a kitten that is slightly under or over these weights and still be perfectly healthy. If ever you have a concern about your kitten, or he just doesn't seem 'right', consult a vet. On the internet there is a pretty extensive kitty calendar you can use. You can access it here.

WOW she only had 5. I am really glad she had them. They are pretty. She was a big Mommy so I think you will be fine. They all look great also.
