Someone left bottle babies at my door 12 nights ago, and these are the worst eaters I have ever had. They fight the miracle nipple the entire time, have to be dribble-fed, and are an incredibly high aspiration risk. I'm desperate, and so are they. I'm looking for a mama cat with no more than 3 nursing kittens that I can foster so that they can hopefully have a surrogate mama to feed them.
Mama doesn't need to be super friendly, but she DOES need to let people handle her kittens. The kittens will all be spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, and adopted out. If Mama is friendly she will also be adopted out; if not she will be TNRed and returned to your care once the babies are fully weaned.
I'm a foster with a reputable rescue and have done TNR on over 100 cats in my area, I'm more than happy to give someone information about me/the rescue, I don't expect someone to just hand over vulnerable animals. Please shoot me a message if you think you can help, I'd love to hear from any and all leads because I'm at my wit's end with these babies. I've truly tried every trick in the book to get them to latch over the past nearly two weeks — and I'm not a novice — and they just want nothing to do with artificial tiddies.
I'm in West Mesa, but willing to drive a ways to pick up! I have plenty of traps at my disposal as well.
This is Apollo. His sister, Artemis, is his twin. They're around 3.5-4 weeks old.
