New tiny kitten

[Fatiguedwithlife]

Hello! We have acquired a teeny kitten (supposedly 9 weeks old) but she’s the runt and is very small.
i haven’t weighed her, we only got her today.
We’ve kitten proofed the lounge and are keeping the dog and the other cat away.
She has one snotty eye which I’m cleaning every couple of hours with cooled saline solution
I’ve bought kitten milk and dry and wet food (the same as she was having where she came from).
Shes done a wee and a loose poo in the litter tray and mostly slept. She wasn’t interested in the food or water or saucer of milk so I syringed about 5ml warm kitten milk into her and that woke her up a bit. she then ate a little wet food.

are we doing the right things?

Wow, how long is her tail. Please don’t stop posting. I love this thread.

Penny is such a delight and exactly what we all need in these troubled times!

Such a lovely thread x

Please, spam away!
I also note there's a picture of Penny and Merlin, possibly mid-wrestle, which you popped on another thread and which would look lovely on this thread too!(hint hint😻😻!).
Like many have said, this thread is so lovely, seeing Penny grow and thrive and develop her personality which involves cuddles purrs and wrestling, is a real tonic, so thank you @Fatiguedwithlife 😽

Here’s some of the duo 🩷

Awww how beautiful are Penny and Merlin! So cute.

Said it before and I will say it again: I am dying of cuteness!😻😻😻😻
Just love how they have bonded, that little lost-looking scrap has blossomed and found her world full of fun, frolics, food and friendship ❤️

I’ve just noticed that Merlin has some stripes too, how lovely!

Adorable little Penny. Her pictures always bring a smile to my face.

Happy Weekend everyone!
love Penny and Merls

Omg that picture of her climbing up some leg is adorable!

I’ve taken to wearing jeans as it’s less painful when she climbs 🤣

Beautiful

I love the licky pic, shes coming on so well 😻

Gorgeous cats .

Me too! That tongue: she could file wood with it!

😻😻😻🐾🐾 Thank you! Happy weekend to you all too! Beautiful photos and perfect captures! 🩷

Ah the picture of cat innocence 😹

I know exactly what you mean. My little semi feral kitten is now 9 months old and I’ve only just put away the same two tatty pairs of jeans and thick sweatshirts that I’ve been using as ‘armour’ while she’s been using me as a climbing frame.

Penny is so lovely and Merlin is doing a fine job being a big brother.

Ahhhh love the photo where she's Doing That Cute Thing With Her Feet ( where they stretch the toes out )

Our cats do this then they pull at their claws , massive great big white claws in their jet black paws'n'toebeans . If our Female Cat feels we've disturbed her ablutions she gives us a hoo'er of a look

I keep checking back to this thread to see any Penny updates, so lovely to see her really blossoming now, well done you!@Fatiguedwithlife

A little premature for her weekly check in, but Penny was posing perfectly for you all today ☀️

Proper little pre-cat now isn't she?! Gorgeous. You must be so proud. Well done for being a proper friend to felines. She's a credit - look at that FACE! x

She is just like a small cat now, she’s growing up too quickly 😭

Bonus picture 😻 the size of those limbs!
