Have I not been on since you posted this? Gee, I thought I had...

Prayers for all those babies, especially little Trooper!

Moesha: The vet looked at Mom and all the babies ... I took the whole "family".

He didn't seem concerned with anyone except this little guy since mom was negative and the others spent the whole time romping and being "nawtee"!

I haven't noticed any more diarrhea from the other kittens, sometimes a little pasty but mom's is that way too. I'm giving them all the Albon though just for safe keeping!

Little Trooper was meowing this morning, wanting out of his box. He can even walk around a bit but still VERY weak! He spends most of his time sleeping ... I have him in a soft bed on a heating pad inside of a big box .... since he has started trying to escape!

He's still far from out of the woods but each day he is here and shows even a tad bit of improvement, I am thankful and hopeful!

Wow! I would think that improvement vs. deterioration at this point is a Great sign! Good work, Kim!

I sure hope so!!! I'm still giving him his Albon and pray that whatever has caused him to be so sick will be killed by this medication. He still just is not interested in eating. I'm going to pick up some chicken baby food today and see is that sparks any interest.

Kim - good luck with the baby food. How about jsut a couple of flakes of something stinky, like canned salmon? That might catch his attention, too! Is he still nursing, at least?

PT Prayers for Trooper! (Our mayor's name is Truper, and he is moving forward, and this little furry guy will too!)

He seems to really be having a difficult time chewing so I thought I would try the baby food first but the tuna is always an option ... sometimes just the juice from the water-packed kind is useful!

He tries to nurse but it takes him forever to get his little wobbly head lined up that I'm not too sure he isn't just falling asleep to cuddle mommy.

I let him get with her by himself a while last night but it didn't seem to be very productive. I'll keep trying as he strengthens a bit more each day. That would be ideal if he could get back onto mom but the others are so much bigger and stronger that he would have to have mom all to himself!
