Hi, Salt and Pepper are doing great, they almost weigth a pound, they are now 6 and half weeks old. I've returned to school so I cannot give them as much attention as I used to. Pepper Is only eating when I see him do it, otherwise he only drinks milk, he also got an upset stomach last thursday, he got back on his feet friday morning, since then he is imitating the simtoms when I leave them, If they are with me, He's perfectly fine, poop and all, he even stop purring when I leave him. How do I make him stop this behaivior? is he blackmailing, anxious or is there something wrong. BTW they have been dewormed and they both eat solid wet and softened dry food.

P.S. Here are some pics of them

I don't really know actually. I thought of buying our kitten, Akeer a big cage. So whenever I'm not home, I've less worries. Akeer is 13 wks old this wk. He's doing fine & looks healthy. Last few wks, he had diarrhea again. So I gave him yogurt, just yogurt. The next morning he was fine. Anyway, the best thing to do is bring salt & pepper to the vet. Like MissDolittle always adviced, get feline leukemia test & vaccination.

BTW, the pics are great. They look so cute. How I wish they're mine. Can I have them?

Come to think abt it - maybe your little kittens are so used to your presence.

Yeah, I think they got a little over atached to me, pepper faked the sick thing again (with the purring and every thing, when I was in the room, the second I left it stoped), so I cuddled him for a while, put him in their bed to sleep, and went on with my work, as soon as he realized that he was missing on the fun 'cause, salt wanted to play a bit, so i played with him, he got up and started wresling his brother and had dinner as if nothing happend, after that he hasn't repeated it again. They are getting their first vaccine next friday, they vet check them out and both are fine, they have grown so much since I adopted them, they now look like a mini version of a cat, they hunt every thing that moves, even shadows and they nap where ever they can snugle in.

That's so cute. I mean a little kitten can pretend to be sick. It's really funny. :smt044 Since you're bringing your kittens for vaccination, I guess there won't be any problems with salt & pepper. Pepper reminds me of our little kitten, Junior. He died last April.
