9 Days Old

Wobbly Legs + Open Eyes = Exploration

The big guy who has his eyes open twice as much as the others is very curious about what is outside the box. They are all quite stumbly and wobbly and spending more time in between eating and sleeping. Everyone is also now umbilical cord free! Yeah! Some have no trace of ever having one, while a few have a bit of a scab left.

Today's weigh in was a bit shocking and has me a eensy-weensy bit concerned. Maybe Willow's milk production slowed or maybe the heat has kept her out of the box more, but the kittens did not gain nearly as much weight today as they have previously. I'm keeping an eye on it and will be sure to mention it when we go to the vet on Thursday!
