After losing one of tree kittens due to feeding issues, I am now having a second problem.... Recap. Our first time accidental pregnancy momma had three kittens on july 1. Stasky Hutch and Huggy Bear. Huggy Bear died yesterday morning due to failiar to thrive. I realize now that momma cat only had two desirable nipples. I realized that when she took one kitten away and dropped it upstairs in my boys' room. Upon it's return I laid her down to nurse, finding that now we have two kittens fighting for one nipple!!!!!! I let one nurse for about 5-10 minutes while I had the other try latching onto the other nipples I could find through momma's fur. she would latch on and then let go to every one I found. SOOOOOO.... I tried the eye dropper with milk replacement to give a little supplement. needless to say, momma was not happy and kitty did not take to the dropper or bottle (which seems a little big)....
Has anyone had this problem? can you give me good solid advice... I really really really really don't want to lose another baby!!! thank you Laura
