Well all nine baby kittens are finally off the bottle and eating on their own. It has been a long 6 weeks for me.

A few got fixed already today and had their first shots. Some still have to learn to eat dry food.
I also got in another mama with three kittens but she is doing the work for those three.
We are already getting in applications in to adopt some of them. All are so adorable! We saved them all. Yeah! Got them in at a week and two weeks old.. Now they are 8 weeks and 7 weeks old. Time flies!
Thanks Suzanne

Oh my - I did four with the night / all hours bottle feedings and thought it was going to kill me! Nine - you have my admiration :-) That is quite the chore. Time does fly - I have all four still tearing up the house a year later.

How adorable!! Kudos to you for doing this also. IT is difficult until they learn to use the box and clean themselves too. constant bathing and feeding is a huge job.9 was overwhelming until we got into a routine. All are thriving and eating on their own. I hope I will not have to do this again that soon. We never know what will come into the door. Thanks

Yes, the peeing where you stand (on who you're standing on) is such a delight ;-( . I had laminate in the room I could keep them in (had to be tested so my existing 2 cats would be safe) and it's a bit bubbled in places from the "before the litter box" days. But, they are a joy (most of the time). Nine - wow, wow, wow. Thanks for all you do!

They look at you for everything they need. How can you deny any of them.. To see them thrive and develop into their own personalities is wonderful. We have much success finding great homes for them. Everyone fills out an application and we do back ground checks so we can be sure they are going to great homes. Thanks so much for all you do too!

It is so much work to feed kittens! I do hope you are blessed for every moment you care for them. All creatures would be lucky to have a caretaker like you.
