Re: handrearing baby


Awwww she's a little sweetie Sam!

I'm very sorry to hear you lost her mum and the other kittens, that must have been an awful shock for you.

Is it unusual to have such a big litter?

You're doing a brilliant job hand rearing her and I suppose that makes her that extra bit special to you.

I love her AKA ...Megamouth!!

Re: handrearing baby


im hopeing to keep her.Will have to wait and see as we could still lose her.Handrearing is so hard.10 is the biggest litter weve had and yes thats large for Persian,however i have had 2 litters of 9 and mums reared them all.

Re: handrearing baby


We'll be willing her on all the way Sam!

I noticed you've been on here late at night so I take it you are up doing the feeds right through the night?

Re: handrearing baby


Awww Sam that is very sad, I'm so sorry to hear that.

I know you tried so hard to give her a chance but for some reason it just wasn't to be.

We're thinking of you and always here if you feel the need to chat.
Take care
Mags xx
