Update on foster babies

They are recovering great! I'm so relieved. Rosie, the little white one, still has weak muscles from being sick. The rescue coordinator I work with says this is normal, that she'll regain her strength soon. It's funny and sad to watch her try to run and play because her back legs are floppy and she trips over them. But at least she is playful!
The other litter is great now too. They are four weeks old and toddling all over the room. The climb on me like a jungle gym when I go in there and sit on the floor.
Jasmine, my favorite, is a an all-black kitten who I had to bottle feed a couple times to make sure she was getting enough milk. Well now when I come in she climbs into my lap and purrs and when I pick her up she goes limp and lets me cradle her on her back while I scratch her chin and belly. It's soo funny! She's still so tiny...I can cradle her in my palm and she looks lke she is in kitten heaven.
I'll try to post pics later.
After these two litters are gone I might not take anymore for awhile as these two have been alot of work and I need to focus on getting all our stuff unpacked and rearranged.
Leaving for Cali tomorrow for 10 days...talk to yall soon.
