I can't help much with the kitten issue. It's been 20 years since I dealt with kittens. Some of the shelters don't let them go until they are two pounds. Good weight. I've always thought 6 weeks or later. IIRC, the momma will stop nursing at 5-6 weeks.

But it's been a long time.

Good luck with the placement.

Fancy trusts me *only*. I've been feeding her & another stray who had a litter about 5 weeks ago for nearly a year now. She lets me handle her and has let me try to ease her pain from her injury. I think that's why she left them for me. Her injury is severe and I think it's come to where she needs to be seen by a vet and probably put to sleep. Her shoulder is severely damaged and I think broken. With where we live, she needs to be inside at the very least, because we have several varities of snakes that would eat her, as well as a pack of coyotes with at least 6. Poor baby.

Babies are developing beautifully. They are about 11 ounces right now. They are so precious, it's going to be hard to give any of them away.
