Here's my boy I still have:

Gosh! You are so lucky! I wouldn't be able to give them away though. You really are a great person.

Just a little update that the boy is doing really good. He took some formula from a bottle today for the first time (I had been using a syringe). He's going potty really well and he's very strong and squirmy. I still feel sick to my stomach with worry, but once we get past a few more days I think I'll feel better.

Then of course I have to worry about the Felv test when he's older :( But I'm trying to take this one day at a time for now.

I'm thinking of a good strong male name .. something like Hercules :) Or Fabio! Any suggestions?

Oh He's sooo sweet!!! :) Keeping all paws & fingers crossed and sending good vibes your way that he will stay healthy!!!

I'm so glad that he's doing so well. :) You could name him Rocky because he had a rocky start in life and Rocky is the boxer that Sylvester Stallone portrayed in the movies.

My boy is doing so good :D He's eating more and more and he's soooooo strong. I can barely hold him still to feed him because he climbs all over me! He's been pottying a lot on his own and getting himself really dirty - typical male :rolleyes: :D :p I stimulate him after every feeding and he goes, but then he'll also go in his crate.

I'm being extremely careful about germs. I wash my hands so many times a day that they are starting to get dry. I know his immune system might be compromised since he didn't spend enough time with his mom. I hope I can keep him healthy!

That's such wonderful news Ali!!!! Great job!!! Now we need pics of this little boy!!!!:D

I'll be sure to take some pics at the next feeding time. I went out and bought him a little bunny today thats closer to his size. The stuffed dog I had in there was a little too big and was making him get off the heating pad too much so I took it out yesterday or the day before. He grabs on to the rabbit as he falls asleep and it makes me cry because thats what he did with his brother :( :( :( When his brother was sick, he'd lay his whole body on top of him :( Ugh.

He's still doing great. He's been crying a lot today but I think its because he's growing some and wanting to eat more. Also probably still missing his brother and mama :( He likes it when I take him out and hold him against my cheek though. He'll stop crying and he's got some sort of purring thing going on. I can't tell if he's purring or grunting, hehe.

I wish I knew exactly why his brother died. I hope it wasn't a sickness. I hope it was because he was just too weak or something that I couldn't have helped. If it was a sickness, I'm still scared to death this boy will come down with it. I've been washing his blankets constantly and I sterilize the bottles and syringes a few times a day. Do you guys think he would have gotten it by now if he was going to? I know its hard to say for sure. I'm just worrying.

I don't know Aly .... wish I did ... but I do know he is lucky to have you!!! It made me teary eyed picturing him cuddling that bunny too! :( But I know he loves being held up close to your face and having you talk softly to him. My kittens all love that too!!! It is so amazing how even as tiny as they are, they look me in the eyes and hang on my every word! Such precious blessings!
It sounds like this little guy is a fighter, and I feel he will pull through just fine! Hang in there... you're doing great by him!;)

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I was watching Animal Planet just now and a Siamese cat was having kittens. One of her babies looks EXACTLY like my boy... facial structure and everything. I had to go check and make sure my boy was still here and didn't somehow get on television :D I can't wait to find out if he really is Siamese or not.

I have some new pics and video of my baby. I'll post them after I feed Lily.

I'm still trying to take good pics. Its VERY hard because he's so squirmy :) Here he is with his new easter bunny:

And here's Lily with a lily:

Good to hear about your little meezer boy. It sounds as if he'd make it. Getting stronger and wanting more food are good signs. I had to smile when I heard about the grunt-purring. Filou can do that too, sounds so sweet

Aly, I just looked at his precious picture. What a fighter he is!! And he is doing so well, all because of you. :)

I don't have any name suggestions, but I know that a perfect name will come to you. Good luck, and please know that we are praying for him to be strong and better, each day!

Logan, Mimi and Butter

They are both so sweet, so precious. How will you ever be able to part with them. If you don't keep them i know you will find a good home. I'm so tempted...Maya and her cattitude be damned!!!! I see that "little boy" has what looks like a darker tip to his tail...he must be a meezer...with the loud yells and all. You are truly special to foster these kiitens. without your intervention...they would not be.

How precious!!!!! Can't wait to see some face pics of him! That Lily is a dollbaby too! :D

They are both so adorable. :D I'm so glad to hear that your baby boy is doing so well. :)

I just talked to the woman who took the chipmunks and they are all doing really good :) She suggested I name my boy Sampson but I'm still thinking about it. Here he is very messy after eating :D

And here's the BIG girl Lily:

TOO CUTE!!!! Thanks for the pics, keep them coming!!! They both look so healthy!! :D

Awwwww Aly they look so cute and healthy. :D

Awww this little boy: how itsy bitsy sweet he is. I once had a cat called Samson, he was grey like a Russian Blue (but was a normal domestic).
And Lily: such a grown up girl now. I am sure they are happy to have you:)

I'm thinking about naming him Sterling or Sebastian. I like Sebastian for him but almost everyone else likes Sterling. Sir Poops a Lot fits him better than any name though :D :D :D He's still doing great. He loves his bunny and is always curled up on it. I'm switching him from the syringe to the bottle slowly and he's doing really good on the bottle now. Strong little devil he is!

Lily is now pottying on her own and I've introduced some 'mush' to her (KMR mixed with canned kitten food). She's not interested in it yet but I'm letting her play in it right now (BIG MESS). My hands look like hamburger meat from when I feed her the bottle and she kneads on me.

My little boy is growing SO fast! I still don't have a name for him yet. Nothing seems to fit him.

Last night when I got him out to feed him, his eyes were still closed. I fed him and then held him up to my face to talk to him like I usually do. After a few minutes of talking, I looked at him and his eyes started to open right before me!! I was SOOOO excited! I've always missed this with my other babies (their eyes are closed then the next time I go to get them out, their eyes are open) but my boy opened his eyes a little bit and was looking at me through little slits. That was just such a magical moment. And also when I went to get him this morning, he had lost his umbilical cord!!!! I am so proud and happy and glad that he's doing so good. :D

Wow Lily is getting soo big!! And your little boy is so precious with those pink paw pads! :)
