NIPPERS BABIES TWO CLICK TO ENLARGE PICS

KITS ARE 3 WEEKS OLD NOW AND SEEM TO BE GETTING BIGGER BEFORE OUR EYES.SADLY WE LOST THE LITTLE RUNT A FEW DAYS AGO,SHE WAS JUST TOO WEAK TO FIGHT ANYMORE. NIPPER THE MUM IS VERY THIN SO WE HAVE BEEN FEEDING HER MORE TO KEEP HER STRENGTH UP..FEEDING 9 BIG KITS IS HARD WORK. WE TRIED FEEDING THE KITS KITTEN FOOD AND KITTEN MILK BUT THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN IT... YET !!!...THEY ARE STARTING TO TRY AND GET OUT THE NEST BUT THEY NEVER GET VERY FAR BEFORE NIPPER IS TAKING THEM BACK IN TO IT. 4 WEEKS OLD AND WEANING HAS STARTED IN EARNEST..THE SEEM TO BE VERY HUNGRY ALL THE TIME..THEY ARE EATING THE KITTEN FOOD MIXED AND MASHED UP WITH A LITTLE KITTEN MILK AND THEY LOVE IT AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE FEEDING PICTURES..AT FIRST THEY WERE STILL A LITTLE UNSURE BUT AS SOON AS THEY GOT A TASTE FOR IT THEY DIVE RIGHT IN AS SOON AS WE PUT THEM TO THE SAUCER..THEIR EYES ARE STILL CLOSED BUT THEY HAVE A GREAT SENSE OF SMELL !!! THE FIRST THREE PICS ARE THE FIRST ATTEMPT ..AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE LAST PICTURE THEY WERE JUST A LITTLE SLEEPY AFTERWARDS. THE NEXT THREE PICS WERE THE FEEDING FRENZY THAT HAPPENED  2 DAYS LATER.
