That's great that he latched on by himself...hopefully he will continue to do this and get stronger. My little guy that didn't make (from Lily's litter) was not strong enough to suck. I had to use a syringe do drop milk in his mouth. I bet you see him gain some weight now that he is latching on and sucking on his own. Keep us updated!
