Ah yes, the every-two-hour feedings - and the crying - anyone who has raised orphan kittens will remember that well! And isn't it amazing how sharp those tiny baby teeth and claws can be - like little razors! So be very careful, Aly - or you will have permanent scars to remember these two sweeties by.

If you haven't tried this already, put a hot water bottle (wrapped in a towel) in with the babies - that made my Winston (then age 2 weeks) much happier, and he stopped crying so much.

Rub those little pink tummies for me - Aly, you have one of the sweetest jobs in the world and you do it so well!
