She drinks from a.water bottle and eats hard kibble. I bottle fed her until almost 4 months. She was half the literate size and now she is normal size. They do catch up. Everything is just slower. It sounds like you are doing good. Go to the leerburg website and use that formula to feed. It has more calories per cc. I used this to raise Tia. Good luck. You can do it!!!! |
