oh my goodness, they are soooo tiny!!! I hope they keep doing well and will grow up to be big and strong! Keep us updated!

If there is a store nearby where you get the supplies for them, see if they will set up an account that a few dollars could be donated to. If they have PayPal, so much the better. -- Catty1

just me know, today is pay day YAY for Gina, Crayola and Zephyra and a gentle yay for the tiny baby kittens too! I wonder where their mom-cat is? Maybe something happened to her :-(

oh wow, things are getting better!! read on..

about an hour ago, I was downstairs (little peanuts are upstairs with zephyra and whispers), preparing thatcher (the sugar glider's) food for tonight and guess what I saw right by my foot when I felt a crawl?? whispers brought the girl down, dropped her on the floor right by my foot then looked up at me - feed her now please! wow. all is soo good here! they must have KNOW they have their deaf meowmie. I'm still amazed and couldn't get any more proud... maybe I can get a video of it if I see that again.

I think those kittens are between 5 and 7 days old. Good luck with them!

yeah probably..I just looked up online, wanted to be sure - they say umbilical cords are usually cut off around fifth day and the girl's is already, so. and thank you!

If there is a store nearby where you get the supplies for them, see if they will set up an account that a few dollars could be donated to. If they have PayPal, so much the better.

that's sweet of you offering. I think we have enough supplies for now, not really sure where the good store would be anyway. but I'm more concerned with vet visits in order for them soon in future (to have them dewormed, physically checked, etc.), maybe you (and cassiesmom) can help with that later. then I'll set up a paypal account. I thought of this fun idea this morning, if everyone could donate as much as $2 (the # charms of the kitties!), catnips, mice, little blankets or whatever in mail - to the little peanuts - just for them! they will feel more special that way. but I can understand that it's not the best direct you want and everyone may be under financial stress but if anyone would like to, be sure to post it so we can keep a record. I just thought it'll be fun getting things in mail. thanks both.

I wonder where their mom-cat is? Maybe something happened to her :-(

I've been looking outside, never saw any other cat.. so sad. I am keep looking on for her! I really want her to be fixed.

oh my goodness, they are soooo tiny!!!

yes!! like I told you!

They sure a widdle kitties and look so cute. I hope that they'll continue to thrive in your care. You sure have some very wonderful furkid helpers there.

Wow your furkids are amazing!! The peanuts are so tiny. This sounds like a great human interest story. I bet if you called a local paper and they ran an article, you'd get donations right left and center!!

Zephyra is one special, outstanding and remarkable kitty girl for "adopting" those sweet little peanuts! She definitely deserves lots of extra special treats and lovies for helping such tiny little newborns. What a wonderful story.

And bless you for saving these little ones. Now they have a real chance to be some lucky person's loving and loyal companions. How sad that their mommy is nowhere to be seen.

Please keep us updated on their progress? Will you keep them? The peanuts are and will remain in my prayers. Could I ask you to give your sweet Zephyra lots and lots of scritchies, tummy rubs and smoochies from me?

Gina, I don't know how you feel about kitten645's suggestion about a human interest story on the peanuts. 1. Maybe someone will know what happened to the mom, 2. It's a chance to educate people on another type of service doggy that they may not know about (and Crayola would love the camera!).

If you know the vet they will be going to, maybe donations could be sent there. Something to think about. If you want to be anonymous, they can take photos from the back, or something.

HUGS and in a few days the peanuts will have their eyes open!
