Hi Guys,

I have recently become mum to two 8 week old girls, we brought them home on wednesday, they seemed to settle in ok. they have been chewing excessivly on our hands - we assume they are teething as they are quite young and not doing it viciously!!! we also took them to the vets this morning for their jabs and worming etc. my only concern is that they dont seem to have been eating that much food since they came here, we have been feeding them what our breeder was feeding them, i know that the new surroundings will put them off their food abit but it just seems like they are eating nothing! they are 8 weeks and 2kg each, will they get their appetite back or should i start trying different foods? im currently on dry for 2 meals and wet for 1 meal.

i just feel mean for doing so much to them in 48 hours!

Argh need some sort of reassurance im not a cruel mummy

!

any help would be great!
