I take your word for the shape that these two poor babies were in, but I've also had people tell me I don't take care of Silvia. She is 2lb. 14oz. and you can see her backbone and her hair is very thin, almost non-existent on her back. She is the healthiest little thing in the world and I feed her better than I do myself, but she just looks the way she looks. The vet says she's healthy, not sure the reason, but I have friends that are scared to pet her because they can feel her backbone.

I hope that those two babies are not being neglected. I hate to even think of that. Especially, if they are wanting to breed them! If she truly is in bad shape, think of what a pregnancy will do to her! Poor babies!
