Hi all,
Well it's kitten central here now. Patty and her litter are almost all adopted except for Patty. The last kitten will be picked up by his new family on Saturday. Meanwhile since Patty is still producing milk I offered to take in two orphaned newborns. The only trouble is that Patty has no interest in nursing them! Argh.
I also have another litter about a week or so older than the newborns and they came with their mom. I would put the little ones in with them except that the little ones are sneezing and don't want to get the mom and her kittens sick. Although I have noticed some congestion in the other kittens.

So in total I have two mother cats, 4 two week old kittens, 1 eight week old kitten, and 2 five day old kittens. Aaaaaagh. It's great though, I love doing it.

Any suggestions on getting the newborns in with Patty or the other mom kitty? (I've named her Lily, she is all white)
I'll post pics soon!
