(Advice seeking at the end) I shared this lil guy a while back, panicked and looking for advice. A month later we found out she’s a girl, and her and her brother are doing amazing and going up for adoption in about a week. I’m so proud of how far they’ve come, the foster coordinator even admitted she didn’t have high hopes for these two early on (which I’m grateful she didn’t disclose at the time, since I was anxious for them as it was) so it’s amazing to see them now.
The buff girl is Hotdog and her brother is Slurpee. Our little 7/11 combo.

These are my first fosters, I’m trying to remember that the plan was for them to leave all along, but especially as I can feel the love from these kittens, it’s hard to know that next week we’ll drop them off to be fixed and never see them again. It makes me sad for them, like they’ll feel abandoned. They’ll have major surgery and then never set foot in our home again. And they love it here! It’s just hard to shake the guilt there. How do you deal with it?

Picked up these 3 week old kittens today, only the big girl is remotely interested in wet food, and not bottles. They haven’t eaten since the humane society fed them at 3pm, and it’s 1am now. Is it normal for kittens this young to not have an appetite right now? They also were in a litter of 6 and were separated for fosters.

To clarify, we’re bottle feeding, they aren’t latching at all.
