Great news!
I separated Ninji and China last night for a while.
I stayed in the room with China and watched while she ate!!
She is eating and drinking again, as long as Ninji is not around.
Both of them seem to slowly be getting better.
Ninji has gained twice as much weight as China because he scarfs all the food I put out for them before China works up the nerve to go eat.
They both were anxious to play all night. In fact, they cried when I made them go to their room for bedtime so Baby (our 14 yr old Himalayan) could come out of her room for a while.
It has been a real challenge to clean the litter box for the kittens, use the aspirator for their noses and give them medicine all twice daily. Also, cleaning the floors before Baby can come out to play is no quick chore. But, I enjoy every moment of it as the kittens become familiar with their new environment.
BTW, thanks to the people who recommended the aspirator and bathroom with a running shower. As much as the kittens hate having their noses sucked out and their faces cleaned, they seem to be getting better.
I spoke to our HOPE sponsor who said we should put a vaporizer in the room with the kittens during the day. So, I am borrowing one today.
Everything seems to be working. All the cats are slowly becoming familiar with each others smell. I hope to have the kittens healthy enough for their next shots and spay/neuter within the coming week. Then, after recovering from surgery everyone can meet and play together all day long. That is assuming Baby decides it is ok to have other animals in the house. Right now she is fine, as long as the kittens keep their distance (meaning, stay in another room away from her).
