Kiki came to me with her litter-mate Jett when they were quite tiny, and giving another foster-mama a lot of trouble latching onto a bottle. She has more experience with dogs, so she called me and asked if I could help. I already had seven kittens, down from ten because we lost three, so I said I’d help her get them latched, but really couldn’t take them in.
Ha. You knew where this was headed, right? I had trouble getting them going too, so I took it as a personal challenge, and told her to leave them with me. I’d most likely give them back in another day, latching easily.
