I have a whole new appreciation I have a whole new appreciation for you breeders. My cat had kittens Thursday night. We lost one yesterday the tiny runt then this morning another one became weak and quit nursing. I ran out and bought some milk and newborn kitten formula and have been feeding it. So far it still has strength to lift its head and nurse a little. I am hoping to just get him over the hump then maybe he will nurse from momma. I dont know how you breeders can do it. I was so upset when we lost the first one and then seeing this one get weak put me into a panic. |
~I am so sorry you lost a kitten. It is always hard to loose a baby....puppy or kitten. Hope the one your feeding does well. Good Luck with everything. ___________ :aimeeyork:aimeeyork:aimeeyork :aimeeyork:aimeeyork:aimeeyork |
I've ended up raising kittens my whole life. We I lived we has barn cats, and we usually didn't get them fixed before they had their first litter. Man I can count the number of kittens we've had. I had to help my mother nurse at least 5 litters. I rememeber when the momma cat got ran over:( and we had a litter of 8 kittens to take care of. We were feeding them every two hours, and then my mom forgot to turn of the heat lamp and fried them:cry:. She felt so bad, but its one of those things. I feel your lose, and I am sorry. If you need any help with the kittens just pm me. |
I am so sorry about the one little kitten, I really wish that was the part that we never have to deal with but sometimes it is. Thats the really bad part of breeding. Hang in there with the other little one, sounds like your doing a great job! |
I understand what you are going through. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals. It sounds like you are doing well though, just keep them warm and feed them OFTEN, especially for these first few weeks. It will go by fast! I applaud YOU for taking care of those kitty babies! |
It isn't easy is it? I don't know where those people are that are in it for the "easy" money - I'd like to know how they did it! I enjoyed myself but there was nothing easy about it. |
