The flour-kittens received a donation of Royal Canin kitten milk plus utensils from Sharm El Sheik this evening. Thanks so much to Diane, Iris and Valesca who helped. Your initiative made the mini cats verrrrrrrrrrry happy!
After the first session with Royal Canin was clear that Cookie absolutely fell in love with the new taste, he contentedly pumped 10 ml in one go into his small furry body and started purring immediately before he fell asleep in the next moment. Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ...
:) Such a happy day for the kittens!
Opening the eyes in Dahab is not always pleasant. Three kittens (10-12 days old) were found on Assalah Square covered in flour. After just one day they have already learned to drink from a feeding bottle. They look strong & healthy, drink regularly and sleep a lot. They have the strong will to survive and are looking for a nice home as soon as they are a bit older.
May I introduce: Flour Power. Impossible to stop moving just for a moment!
Edvard was found because he was screaming like hell, he was also the first to find out how the feeding bottle works.
Terror, so tired after a big portion of baby-milk. She is pitch-black and the tiniest of all three. We are happy about her great appetite.
Cookie happy after some food and cuddels. We guess he will have long hair when he is older. He has the beginning of a slight Mohawk along neck and spine.
Oh no! Whole Dahab ran out of kitten milk! Luckily we found a recipe from a German breeder that worked really well for the flour kittens. In case you are in a similar situation here is the formula:
- 50g Bebelac Lactose free (!) baby milk powder
- 1 egg + 1 yolk
- 1 tea spoon vegetable oil
- 1 tea spoon glucose (grape sugar) or honey
- a dash of dry yeast
- 1 drop vitamin B-complex
- 150 ml water or fennel tea (good against congestions)
-> Mix all the contents and heat the part you need for feeding up to 30 °C (~ hand-hot).
The rest of the mixture can be stored in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
Thanks to Claudia Bracke.
