    Did they suggest mixing the formula with kitten meat to encourage her? That's what I would try next x

    Spoiled no doubt, and indelibly imprinted upon your family. I do think she would benefit greatly from other feline interaction (agree about keeping her away from kittens if she's still showing cat-flu symptoms though) but it's not unknown for them to thrive on their own.

    Good luck whatever you decide, you've been an absolute :A in rescuing her and ensuring her survival :T

    Wee update:D
    Mama is being spayed this morning and we have been asked to go pick her up and release her back here tonight. Apparently she is getting more and more hissy the less the babies need her and is also teaching the babies how to hiss too . Kids have kitted out the old playhouse in the garden so she will always have a nice place to sleep if she wants it and will make sure she is always fed and looked after , she will be a wee pampered stray :)
    It also means we get to visit the babies when we pick her up , very very excited to see them & how they are doing :j Will try and get some pics whilst we are there . Dangerous territory tho lol am taking the kids and as well as our 2 babies the CPL lady has 8 more bundles of fluffiness , the kids will want them all :rotfl:

    Aww thank you , she does pose well though ! Can't believe she has got to that from the skinny wee rascal she was at 4 days when we got her ! Hopefully will have some pics of the other 2 later on , taking a big handbag with me ..... wonder if they'd notice if I smuggled a couple home with me :cool:

  • I think I'm definitely tardy to the party, but 1. AWWWW and 2. if the kitties are still turning their nose up at food, try soaking the kibble in the kitten milk :)
