Yup, every 4 hours at 6 weeks of age, then it graduated to every 6 hours at about 9 weeks of age, then every 8 hours at 12 weeks of age.

My vet doesn't believe in routinely giving nutrical (or karo syrup). It's used only if needed at the first sign of hypoglycemia. But if fed around the clock, blood sugar levels should be stablized and it shouldn't be needed.

How was the vet exam?
