Bottle feeding my foster kitties.

RE: Bottle feeding my foster kitties.
I agree.  Parvo would not only have killed them it would have infected the third one by now.  It's as nasty a virus as you can get.

Keep up the good work.

Nope, common european cats. I do like his colour tough. The bugger wakes me up every morning by uncovering me in bed, wanting his food.

I have great respect for rescue/fosters. Thank you CL.

D-Butts? Baby wipes followed by 1% hydrocortisone cream works wonders. Give it a try.

RE: Bottle feeding my foster kitties.
CL, your foster kitties look the same size as Dill and Pickles, when we rescued them back in September. I figured ours to be 4 weeks of age. I didn't have milk, per say or bottles, so I took canned food and watered it down some. I also had to litter box train them myself.

They are so big now. Almost seven months old and holy shit they get into everything. Dill is nearly as big as Vader and Pickles is slightly larger than Ebby, the matriarch of the family. Lece` took over mothering them and would clean them and lay with them all the time.

We love our babies Smile

I never rescue abandoned kittens, I just pray the'll be protected by a magical barrier

Youngest cat we've had indoors (ever) is actually Primary Cat. Vet estimated he was 10 weeks old when he turned up in the yard. I was going to take him to the shelter, but he displayed enough personality and intelligence (unlike Emergency Backup Cat #2) that he wound up a forever cat here.

BTW, the intelligence thing in cats is grossly overrated.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Just a quick update, the kitties are doing well. Took them to the vet again today for the diarrhea, and it wasn't anything too serious. Vet said there was inflammation in the stomach/intestines and gave me some anti inflammatory meds. Hopefully that'll solve the issue. Poor babies.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
