Little Miss Daisy

I was finally was able to get a photo of our little Miss Daisy (the runt of the litter) with her big sister Hazel. You can see how small (less than a 12oz.) she really is. Mommy cat is so over nursing her kittens. Since all the other kittens are now eating moist food, Sunny doesn't have to nurse as often. She's also sleeping on the highest counter in the bathroom. She can keep an eye on her babies but they can't get to her. Miss Daisy is now eating a little on her own (she has been dewormed and getting antibiotics twice a day) but because of her size, needs a warm body to snuggle up to. We still have our fingers crossed that she will make. There still is a lot of bathroom clean up and litter box cleaning every two hours but the major blow outs are getting better.

She's so cute. I've been showing Marcus pictures of her in hopes of convincing him that she should live with us.
His excuse is the baby should be coming in like a week so we can't take on more at the moment...hehehe

keep up the good work!

Daisy won't be ready to go to her new home for at least 6 more weeks so if baby Lisa comes on schedule, you will have a little time to adjust. :)

She's such a sweet little bit of a kitty!

Sebastian has a perch that heats up to kitty body temperature. If Daisy's snuggle buddies aren't always around, maybe this is a good subsititute?

(I'm sure this isn't the lowest price, I just wanted to show you what I'm talking about.)
