SO, THIS IS WHAT 3AM FEEDS FEEL LIKE
We have 3 new foster pups. They were found in a box on the side of the road, out near Kayenta,Az.
They are tiny, black and amazingly wiggly when awake. We are guessing they are less than a week old as their eyes and ears are still shut. This means they require bottlefeeding every few hours. So far I have avoided the whole feeding neonate thing. Getting up in the middle of the night never really appealed. But these guys didn't really have any other options and I wanted to give them a chance.
So far so good. Rob did the first 3am shift and I did the 6am. We swapped last night. If they survive they first week or so we can lengthen the times between feeds.
One of the boys has a broken, infected paw, hoping the antibiotics and time can heal it.
There is 2 boys and 1 girl. I haven't named them yet. I am leaning towards Gilgamesh, Nebuchadnezzar and Ishtar, but I have the feeling that that may not fly with work so well.
They can be their secret names.
