Chapter 2
We took Bobby back to doctor after 2 weeks. The little boy has gained weight and vet is very happy with his progress. He received his first kitten shots and was tested for feline leukemia. He is negative and we are thrilled. I brought him home and let other cats see him. They are not excited. We are overjoyed.
We give him bottles, burp him, potty him and love him. He thrives. At age 5 weeks we have Thanksgiving dinner. All our friends hugs and loves on him. We take him to see Santa and have his photo taken with the man in red. He is so small, he is smaller than the baby cats in store awaiting adoption. We are so grateful for his good health.
After several weeks he is off the bottle and box trained. Robert takes care of him for a week while we go to Vegas. Robert brings his mom over to see the “cutest kitten in the world”. Took me a few days to wean him. Put the kibble in a coffee grinder and added it to the formula. Put some on my fingers and he suckled off as though it was a bottle. After 2 days he could feed himself, and a few days after that he was using the litter box. He can jump out of his box, so we rolled the box on its side and Bobby lives there.
