a little late

I got side tracked last night and didn't post, today's post will combine both today and yesterday into one.

Today I tried putting the 3 kittens together again, it didn't go quite as well as I had planned it would. Hope just will not leave Poor Jimmy alone, she is sucking on him, so I had to pull her and put her back in her bin by herself. I am going to try and figure out a way to make little kitty diapers to put on Jimmy to keep him covered so she has no access but I really don't feel that's going to work either, has he is now learning to use a litter box and a diaper defeats that purpose. I tried dabbing him with some bitter lemon to try and deter her but she is a determined little girl.

Hope will be done her a/b tomorrow, Jimmy will be done on Monday and Sabrina on Tuesday and than I can relax a bit.

Starting to litter train them and see if I can get them interested in solids, so far they must think I have gone insane and am trying to poison them. I figure if I keep offering, perhaps one day they will be just a little curious and try it, they might be surprised to see that it isn't as bad as they think. Right now they are eating every 3 hrs. I think this weekend I will stretch the afternoons to 4 to see if that spikes any interest. If that fails then I will start adding some of the food to their bottles.

Weights are good here are yesterdays and todays.

Hope - Wednesday was 270G, today is 301G
Jimmy - yesterday was 294G today is 326G
Sabrina - Yesterday was 277G today is 284, not a huge gain for her but she had a huge poop just before I weighed her so I am sure that accounts for the minimal gain.

**UPDATE**
it's 11pm now, Mary showed up with another baby for me. This wee little man weighs 130G and is about the same age as the other 3. If you remember Arthur, Kate, Muffy, my first litter, at 24hrs old the smallest was 113G. That gives you an idea just how small he is. He is sneezing more than I like so I think a vet trip is probably in order for him, hopefully its nothing, but until he recovers he is going to be using all his strength to recover and growing will come 2nd behind that growth that he needs so badly.
