Mama cat left a crop of kittens on the front porch and my husband and I are doing our best not to kill them. They're roughly 4 weeks old, they got their first dose of dewormer yesterday, and we bottle feed them KMR with a kitto-friendly probiotic every 5 hours. At feed time, we stimulate their bottoms so they can pee and poop ... only the damn sweet things won't poop. We've been handling them since Friday afternoon, it's now midnight Wednesday and still no s**t. I just finished up a feeding and introduced 1/4 tsp of pumpkin baby food into the mix, so we'll see what happens around 5AM, but I'd like to be able to call up a baby cat doc tomorrow and get some additional advice, maybe even an enema (for them, not us). I have spoken with The Cat Vet Clinic and while they were very helpful, they don't really deal with bottle baby kittens. If anyone has a lead on a vet that is super knowledgeable on kittens, we'd be much obliged.
