Re: One kitten still not suckling mum


Awww, sorry the little one didn't make it; you tried your best. Mum looks lovely; I didd't realize they were Siamese either. The remaining kit should thrive with all Abi's milk and attention! Have you decided on a name yet...boy or girl; probably early to tell.

Sympathies Charlie! It must be so upsetting to have lost this little one, you gave it you're very best shot though! I'm sure Abi's remaining kitten will thrive under both yours and Abis loving attention.

Re: One kitten still not suckling mum


Aww, I am so sorry. i wish that stories like this could be given to Joe Public to make them realise the heartache that can go with letting their cats have that 'one litter'

Sorry to hear the little one didn't make it. You did all you could - you could do no more.

Now you need to focus on that happy little bundle of fun that you have & look after that lovely mommy too.

Re: One kitten still not suckling mum


I am so sorry to read this Don't beat yourself up, you did the very best you could and more. Siamese kittens are notoriously difficult and latching on seems to be quite a problem. Even the experienced Siamese breeders loose babies due to this problem. So give yourself a pat on the back that you have one lovely kitten to cherish x
