The kittens weight will fluctuate throughout the day. It is recommend to weigh at the same time every 12 or 24 hours. Otherwise you are going to go crazy with all the ups and downs. LOL
Do use smooth, pate food or fully blend with a blender the food with chunks, very early on, I lost a kitten due to choking, it was very sad, I lost him right before my eyes, I do not want that to happen to any kitten.
I know. I was thinking about trying them on mush but I thought it might be a little to early. But I can try it out and see how it goes. The mush will be easier than feeding them with a dropper. I'm the only one that can do the dropper feedings but the mush my fiance can make after I show him how to do it and he can feed them too then and it will take some of the pressure off me.
Edit. I just realized all the canned food in the house has fish in it. Need to go pick some up without fish. I was excited for a moment there. Will try out mush tomorrow with them and see what happens.
