kitteh worry
We were going to wait a week or so before taking the kittehs to the vet, however they are now going on Monday. We were suspicious of their age - we were told when they were born, the exact day actually, and had worked out when they would have been 8 weeks old. So it was a surprise when Mum called on Friday to say that she had to collect them or they would be thrown out or given to the first people to take them. They told mum that the kittens were 7 1/2 weeks. Ah, na. They are tiny, teeny tiny little things, and they are constantly crying for mummy. They are not using their litter box, and the little one, Alfie, is not eating (though both are drinking). Georgie has thrown his dinner up today. I've just had a look at two vids on You Tube, one of 5 week old kittens (going from their date of birth they are 5 and a half weeks old) and one of 7 week old kittens. Mine are clearly closer to 5 weeks. I don't mind, if the guy had to get rid of them, thats cool, but don't lie about it! Just tell me, I would have taken them straight round to the vets yesterday. Sigh. I just wish I could find a way of getting them to eat. Going to try some of their dry food mixed with kitten milk and warmed slightly, I've read that alot online. Fingers crossed it works!
UPDATE: Alfie has eaten! YAY! And Georgie has had a wee in his litter box. I is a happy mummy. :)
Anyway, here's some more piccies, taken today.
