The kittens have been using the litter box since wendsday and all fully litter boxed trained now they still enjoy canned food but won't eat it out of a shallow bowl/plate they will only eat it off my finger not sure why. They are eating from a bottle 5 times a day ...

Question is 4 tablespoons a lot for them to eat in one feeding.. like each kitten eats 4 tablespoons each per feeding and 16x5=80 so I go through 80 tablespoons of formula in one day is this to much ??

Last question and I'm sorry for asking so many questions


Willow is losing fur on his legs I'm not sure why and it's starting to make me nervous the other kittens have nice thick fur on their legs and he doesn't does anyone know why ???

The kittens will eventually eat from a dish. That is not too much food. Growing kittens need lots to eat.

Does the kitten have urine burn? I would rinse the legs in warm water, dry them, and apply coconut oil for protection. The fur loss could be from urine burn or dry skin. Hopefully it does not get worse or occur in the others. If it continues I would consult a vet.

I am so sorry to read about Willow. Don't blame yourself; you did everything that you could and in litters there is sadly one that might not survive. My avatar had three sisters, but one of them passed on at an early point.

These kittens and the other animals you help all need you and you definitely have a purpose.

If she is not spayed then she probably mated with a tom cat. How about getting her spayed now in early days so she does not have a litter? This would be the way to go to stop the cycle.
