Symptoms: If your voice is sounding a bit raspy or even a few octaves lower, don't worry; you're just experiencing another weird pregnancy symptom. You might even notice changes in your singing voice and range. Cause: Your voice changes are due toâyou guessed itâhormones.
Your kitten will want to sleep after nursing, so put him back into his bed to let him sleep undisturbed. Your newborn kitten will need approximately 32 cc (1.1 oz.) of formula a day, divided into 9 - 12 feedings a day, depending on his size and condition. Count on feeding him every two hours or so, around the clock, for starters. Yes, it's a demanding job, but intensely rewarding to watch your newborn develop and grow.
Using a kitchen or small postal scale, weigh the kittens daily to calculate the amount of formula they need. Keep a log listing daily weights and amount of formula consumed at each feeding. Newborn kittens, up to 1 week old, should be fed every 2-3 hours; by 2 weeks old, every 4-6 hours. Once they are 3 weeks old, they can be fed every 4 to 6 hours.
