The new kittens*

Dear readers.

So we have been training on how to work with the new kittens and we have decided on names for them as well. They are two males and they are the cutest little cats I have ever seen. Their names are Apollo and Oryn and they get fed during night shift. They get fed 28ml Esbilac every 4 hours, which is a puppy milk replacer, to give them the nutrients and minerals that they need and would have gotten from their mother had they not been removed. We removed them from her because she carries them around underneath the neck, hurting them and we would like to hand raise them so they can be sold to interested people.

Their water bottles need to be reheated every feed so they can keep warm during the night. When feeding them you must not force them and they must be stimulated with every feed because this is hoe their mother would have done it had they still been with her.

They are getting their teeth now and their nails are very sharp when working with them. Their food quantity is according to 15% of their body weight as they are babies and they use much more energy during the day as a normally active animal.
