2 kittens are 5.5 ounces today. The little grey female is about 3.75. Very incremental progress. I've been adding high cal supplement to milk also. Trying to do every three hours.

Photos from two days ago.

Great news today! two of the tiny kittens are now regularly nursing on Mom. I'm not sure if little grey female is but today she weighted in at 3.5 ounces! (after being stuck on 3.25) We check them every three hours and offer milk the grey female takes some the other two none. We give the rest of...

Thank you very much!

Two of the three remaining kitten are at 4 ounces (males) now (3 days old). One female is still at 3.2 ounces. She seems to eat well, eliminate and is very squirmy. Tummy is rounded. I remove the four older kittens every two hours so she can concentrate on new babies which she does. I can see...

A newbie.

sadly it is too late. We feel awful!

will do

I am worried about one who is doing the fish gape mouth and not moving too much. I removed the older kittens again and left bitty babiest with their foster mom. While I was feeding one she climbed up on the sink counter and took the one that was next to me. She put it back in the crate with the...

The story is, I called the girl who took her home to foster. She had a small kitten who was also trapped and tried to nurse on this mother. She did not get anything so gave up. We decided that it would do my kittens no good to put them together. On another note, I am SO tired after getting...

overnight was good! I trained hubby how to make up milk and feed so that is great. They are eating rather well I think, tummies are round and they all pee light yellow! We also fed our older ones this morning just in case. Momma is getting all extra milk after babies are finished plus three...

Thank you both so much. My husband is helping me thank goodness. We weighed everyone. new babies are all 3 ounces and older ones range from 7 to 9.8!

I will try in the morning. The weird thing is she was supposed to be a catch and release neuter. They put her under when they realized she was very pregnant. Poor on their part yes! I agree it would be best for them. So they brought her out of anesthesia and she immediately gave birth. They have...

I think at least seven produce but she did not like me feeling around much lol.She is on the furry side. Does anyone ever try shaving the tummy so the nipples are easier to get to? The new ones were born today. For now they have eaten and are sleeping. I will start weighing them now. Also...

As fosters we received a mother with five kittens about two days old. One passed away while four are thriving now at eight days old, their eyes are starting to open. We were brought four more newborn kittens today, vet said mother had no milk. (Which I never heard of before) We are trying to...
