Kit Update

My little fella is precocious – I was watching him trying to climb the cage walls in the middle of the night!

I’ve managed some sleep as every 2 hours last night he was tucked upside down under his mum suckling – so I left him and continued to monitor him. I’ve fed him several times today but only a few drops at a time so he continues to stimulate milk production in Bear. He has lost a little weight but that is to be expected – Bear’s milk should be coming in and with the top-ups I am giving him he should start to pick up a bit.
His foot is not looking quite so bad as it did – no signs of infection as yet which is encouraging

Bear is being pretty good with him except her handling leaves a little to be desired – she’s a little rough and tends to sit on him rather than tucking him underneath her She’s quite attentive which is good.

I have to give him a minute dose of Septrin twice a day (0.016ml) which equates to the tiniest drop from the end of a syringe – he had his first dose this evening and I think he liked it – he was grinding his little teeth for ages afterwards

Will keep you posted – just wish my brain was working!!
