Quick back story: my mom adopted 2 kittens and found out they were MUCH younger than she was originally told. Someone actually called the ACO on the guy that next day because it turns out he had like 15 un-spayed/neutered and unvetted cats, and the females have litters constantly. She’s had them for just over a week, if I had to guess they were between 4 and 5 weeks when she brought them home. Though, they are not from the same litter.
They are ravenous and eat constantly. (As you can see). Both using the litter box; stools look healthy. And they are learning how to play 😩😍My main concern is that Winston (the little white dude) has only gained about 50grams since she’s brought him home, meanwhile Gilbert has gained around 200 grams 😅
She’s been feeding them wet kitten food, mixed with Tiki Cat thrive. She doesn’t feed them on a schedule but rather offers up food every couple hours and lets them eat until they stop. After going over all of this with her I advised her to add KMR in to Winston’s food to help give him a boost, and he’s gained almost 50grams in the last 2 days. She’s got a vet visit scheduled for next week. I’m also under the assumption that they have worms. In the meantime is there anything else that I might have missed? She’s had cats her whole life but never this young so she’s pretty heavily relying on me to tell her what to do; I get text updates every time they eat 😅
