awwwwwwwwww how cute is he! im glaad you took them off the famer, he doesnt seem to know wha hes doing, thats proberly why he was gunna drown them! i hae a few choice words for him..........................
glad you have this little bundle, hows he doing?

hi,

he is gorgeous but far too young to be away from his mum - they only start to walk at 3 weeks!!! please dont give hom cat milk its not good for young kittens... you need to get milk supplement - sherleys lactose milk availible from any good pet shop it is a subsitute for his mothers milk not as rich as cat milk - i would feed him on soft foods - kitten meat - i wouldnt really give biscuits for another few weeks. i would suggest fleaing him as well if he has come from a farm. if you need anything please just ask. hope he settles in well, keep us posted, susie

Well he's curled up around my neck , I've given him kitten food mushed up I'M giving him babys milk vet said he will be fine on it same as cat milk they surply , farmer didn't know which one mother is as hes got somany cats haven't given him any biscuits as I understand there little teeth can't chew them , I ve been doing my reserch this afternoon and I m doing best i can for him , I ve got a vet appiontment on Friday so I will see what he needs flea wise , worms ect , at the mean time hes having lots of tlc , and He has a big duvet to snug up for bed and a nice hot water bottle under it to keep him warm

ahh bless!!!! yeah babies milk isnt much different - i was just worried as cat milk is far too rich at that age - and i didnt want him to have a bad tummy for you. we normally wean onto soften biscuits at 6 weeks - for fleas i would personally use one called 4fleas - the vet will try and get you to use frontline i wuould imagine - i personlly think 4fleas is better. my cousin got her pupy in a similar situation to yours and it was ridden with fleas the vet gave her frontling and it was crap - so i told her to get 4fleas - its 1 tablet and kills 99.9% of fleas in 24hrs - its really good and does work. im glad hes getting lots of tlc - he'll need it poor lilttle bugger bring treated like that by the farmer - i wish famers would get there cats done if they dont want kittens - im just glad this little one has a chance of a happy lovely life with you. keep the pics and updates coming..... and im always here if you wanna ask anything - ill alwasy try to help.

Thanks susie , I just hope Im doing everything right for him , do you think I can leave the milk in a bowl for him or would I need to feed him myself he has looked to go to it and has , but i m just affriad hes not getting enough

if you feel hes not getting enough, you ca take him to the milk or try bottle feeding him, you can get kitten & puppy bottles that are big enough for his small mouth!

you can get the bottles in major pet stores and off ebay, they are pretty reasonable, heres a link to the ebay one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MIKKI-BOTTLE-KIT-KITTEN-PUPPY-NURSING-WEANING-FEEDING_W0QQitemZ360065264986QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item360065264986&_trkparms=72%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C65%3A12&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

im sure you are, he will just needa lot of tlc - as hes so young - mine dont leave mum til at least 8 weeks. at 4 weeks he should be quite capable of having it left in a bowl for him - keep it in the same place and not too far away so you can keep an eye on how much hes having - is he eating solids ok??? if not put a little in is mouth and he'll soon get the taste for it!!!! the put him to the food - i would prob put solids to him 3 - 4 times a day since he hasnt got mum - just a teaspoon at a time (more if he wants it!!!) - he might not know what to do in a litter tray so put him to it everytime hes eaten. i would def flea him soon - maria came from a farm and she had loads of fleas.... im sure the lilttle lads doing just fine - and hes very lucky to have found a loving home with you.

Thanks Jen I will have a look ,
Thanks susie hes fast asleep on me cuddled up in my top

Can you see me

awwwww how sweet is he, poor little bugga! he seems quite at home there

Well hes had a real good night ,
Hes gone through 2 pouches of kitten food so far and 9ozes of milk , so i think hes doing ok.
Hes been cleaning himself, playing , at the moment hes chewing my toes I droped the kids to school this morning and couldn't find him went upstairs and hes snuggled on the floor on my dressing gown dear of him , hes used the litter tray and my carpet but I caught him in the middle of him going and placed him in his litter tray

awww bless him, he seems to have settled in ok, he's going to rely on you for alot of things because he hasnt got his mum. you could weight him every week and record how much weight he is putting on, so you know hes developing well in that respect.

Well hes beeen sleeping snuggled in my top again just see his nose only

isnt he georgeous you could carry him in your pocket all day hes that tiny.

Well im on day4 with my little boy , name has been changed to Smokey , oh didn't like the name cheeco , but I told him most grey cats are called smokey , anyway ,
Hes doing really well , eatting meat well , drinking water and playing well , Pepsi just looks at him and smokey thinks its fun to grab Pepsi's tail every time it moves spends most of his time snuggled up to me , sleeps in my tops even when Im cooking or cleaning , when hes not snuggled into me hes snuggled with his toy fluffy cat I brought him

ahhh bless - im glad to hear hes doing well - cant wait to see more pics.....

awwww bless him, im so glad that hes settling in well and pepsi is getting along with him, even though he goes after her tail. keep the pics coming and his progress report

give him hugs from myself and vegas

Well I took my kitten to the vets last night , , I thought it was a girl for the past few days and the vet confirmed it last night , he is a she , so she is now named Lola , he siad it is hard to sex it as being small but , I was right , when I was told when I got her she was only 2 weeks old , I didn't believe it and I recorned on 3-4 weeks , well seeing its almost a week since I've had her shes now 4-5 weeks this also being confirmed last night , shes had a does on spot on flea spray at the vets last night and shes started a worming dose , got to give it to her for another 2 days , I don't think I have to spray her anymore not for another 2 mths Thats what the bottle says ,
Well Im bottle feeding throughout the day every 4 hrsish , and she is also eatting meat , so fingers crossed she is going on well , shes booked in for injections for 4 weeks time and booked in next week just for another cheack up to see hows shes going
