Aly, you are doing a great job. In all of my kitten experience, this is one area that I have not been able to do, mostly because I have never received any abandoned new-born kittens to care for. And besides, I wouldn't have the time to do that kind of work. and especially being on a 2-hour feeding schedule! It takes a dedicated person such as yourself to accomplish all of this.
Although all of my kittens are 3 weeks older than yours, now, I have to be careful whenever I go into their area. If they are hungry, they will all begin to follow me around (a complete pride of kittens) and cry consistantly until I feed them. Also, that one has to be careful where walking or stepping, because little kittens are notorious for getting around your feet, and consequently their little paws and tails usually get stepped on. Of course, there is a soft rug in their area, and I am not a large person, so that there has been no injuries. During feeding (they get canned Friskies food) They remind me of a school of piranhas on a feeding frenzy, because when they are done, the bowl is licked clean -I mean there is nothing left.:eek: And their food intake is unbelievable for 4 week old kittens! Then I can eat in peace after all of my furkids are fed. The kittens then go fast asleep in the corner or under their hung-up blanket in the middle of the floor with one of the (2) moms(Blue and Cookie) watching over them.:)
