I think the little guy did latch on once shortly after birth, but then it seemed he had no interest what so ever in nursing. Though he didn't seem to be crying at all, it did have me a bit concerned. I decided to call my vet to let them know that the whelp went well and ask them about the nursing situation. We decided to take them in to be checked over; this was at 4:20 & the appointment was for 5pm. The second I hung up the phone, the little guy woke up & cried a little. I put him up to the food bar & he latched right on and nursed very well. Has been since. Needless to say, I cancelled the appointement & will make a new one in a couple of days for the tail & dew claws.
