HOLD OFF ON THIS BABY's procedure!!! You can get the rest done, but this baby is not up to having this done.....He is gaining weight well....keep it up! When he hits 3.5 oz, you can go to every 4 hours....if he does not start loosing weight, you can stay at every 4 hours until he hits 4.5 oz....then you can go to every 4 hours during the day....9am-1pm-5pm-9pm....he should be sucking and nursing well by then....You can then have the tail/dew claws done when he hits 3-4 oz.....or you can leave his tail intact....
