Kittens are gaining weight nicely. They are all over 2lbs. Our usual goal is over 1000 grams (2.2lbs) since they often loose a little when they go back to the society and we don't want them dropping below 2lbs. 1000 is also a nice round number to aim for, since we actually measure their weight in grams and not pounds.
Three of this litter are there handily, and Lily probably is since now--she was 996 last night before we put out wet food.
They are not picky eaters. They eat any of the wet food I put out and I'm having to watch the dry food bowl carefully since they keep eating it empty. Lily especially seems to eat a lot of dry--which is probably why she's gaining faster than the rest, she just started smaller.
They share the wet food nicely with each other; to argue about it would require stopping eating!
