Best weigh-in so far! In birth order, the weights are…

Number One Harry went from 127 to 139!! A gain of twelve grams!

Number Two Cumulonimbus gained four grams!

Number Three, the runt and only girl Zephyr, is finally in the triple digits at 107! An increase of 12 grams!

Number Four Stratus gained four grams!

Number Five Cirrus is now the heaviest at 143 grams! An increase of six grams!

And Number Six Tony (thank you, @TinyOctopus) went up an astonishing 16 grams!! Biggest gainer of the day!

I’ve got my work cut out for me over the next 24 hours but I am encouraged and excited by their growth so far. I’ll be sure to keep you all updated!!

(I’ve been having more and more problems uploading to Imgur in the last few weeks. So I’m going to start uploading all my stuff to YouTube in case…something happens to Imgur. Of course I don’t want that, but I want to keep open lines of communication with all of you out there who love my kittens as much as I do. Forgive me, but I’m gonna be putting this on all my posts for a while, just so everyone knows they have a place they can go to see da babies in a worst-case scenario. Imgur only lets me post like 20-second videos now, so I’m taking much longer videos for YouTube so there will be new stuff to see over there! https://youtube.com/@therealkittensfordays?si=aDJmllzP6Rrq27ne )

Did they give her anything for the painful nipples? I think I saw in a comment you'd mentioned. Wonder if cats/kittens can tolerate anything being put on that skin so it heals up.

Hurray for the babies! I just successfully gave a little bit via your ko-fi. Tried it before once but didn't work then...(sorry, TO, it was meant for your journey)

Saying a little prayer for you and these guys. May they all get fatter and milkier.

I am bouncing on my bed! So glad the kittens are doing well. It is entirely possible they could have gone the other way and perished. It happens. And it happens to Wonderful People.

You, Mama, and the babies deserve only the best things. Keep up your wonderful work!

Can you tempt her with like shredded chicken or turkey breast? Either as a treat/snack or a topper? And if she nibbles dry food but likes it 'wet' - salt free chicken broth or stock or bone broth for more fluids on the kibble? Trying to remember the tricks of getting an old sick shiba to eat and drink for medicine taking.

Also maybe canned flaked ´people’ tuna…. my three kitties go ape over it. The flaked kind works best, as the chunk type pieces are too big for their mouths

I tried to buy from your wishlist before but my purchase was returned. I want to help but not trusting amazon.com again

Oh wow, I’m sorry to hear that. Thank you SO much for trying to donate! Like @RunawaySpoons says, I do have a ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/kittensfordays I promise that every cent goes towards the kittens!

Yay! Did Momma Sky eat?

Not a lot, but she got fluids at the HS today and ate like three bowls of the TikiCat food so she may just not be hungry. I’ve got my eye on her 😊

Question, probably very stupid. The xray showed a maybe 7th kitten is it possibble something went very wrong and her body acted like "all done" before that one could be born? Or did the checkup cover that? Given the difficulty of the birth i'm worried this all might have something to do with that.

It is extremely uncommon for feline births to contain an extraneous fetus. But it is not unknown
