    4 more (YES FOUR MORE) bottle babies! *MORE _ PHOTOS ADDED*

    Can you spell crazy? J*E*N

    I did a transport for 3 adults who were coming from a NJ county shelter to 1by1. They are staying the night with me and moving to their foster homes tomorrow.

    But that is not the end of the story. I told the shelter directers I could do up to 4 bottle babies. 2 were readied for transport when the driver called me this morning BEGGING me to take 2 more that just arrived.

    OK Bring them on.

    So now I have 2 blue(grey) tabby siblings, a brother and sister, probably 3 1/2 to possibly 4 weeks old.

    I have a mostly white with black markings (on head and tail mostly) female who is probably 2 to maybe 2 1/2 weeks old.

    And I have a blue(grey) female, very hard to describe her color as it is not quite solid and it is not quite tabby, but she is definitley only about a week old.

    They are suckling good, but boy do they have LUNGS!

    Sorry that you will need to wait for photos. And I also need to name them. Screaming Mee Mee and Banshee are coming to mind right now. LOL

    They have liquid poop. Any suggestions on that considering their age? I'll get them to the vet first thing tomorrow.

    The furry four and Rain & Maybelline are eating now so at least I am not worried about them. 10 babies......am I nuts???

    I don't know how you do it!
    I don't think I'd ever be able to let them go. I get attached so quickly and so fast.

    You're a godsend to the little ones.

    OMG Jen, have you gone CRAZY!!!! LOL!!! Believe me when I say that I am just joking.

    A heart of gold Jen. That's what you have. They couldn't be in better hands.

    They are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute and such unique markings on the older two.

    Oh gosh, GARY is going to be so happy that his precious RB Roca will have a widdle namesake. Thank you for that Jen.

    Prayers and positive thoughts on the way that these precious bottle babies do well in your care. You just never know what condition they are in by the time you get them, but, you pulled lovely Maybelline through Jen, so I have no doubt that these babies will also thrive in your care.

    Gary will be tickled that his sweet girl will have a namesake. Bless you for naming her Almond Roca.

    They are so adorable. I wish I lived close enough to come help you! They're going to keep you busy, that's for sure.

    Checking in after my first sleep-deprived night. (LOL)

    OMG! The diarrhea is SO bad. Why doesn't the vet open at 7am?

    But they are eating well. But they SCREAM!. Well, it did help me decide on names ......... Dr. Bellows and Lady Lungs.
