    2 month old kitten playing rough *ideas?*

    4-5 day old kitten *PICS

    The other day I found an abandoned kitten, eyes still shut. I'm feeding it goat milk formula (what they had), wipe it's butt, and keep it warm. All I really want to know is signs of it being happy. It sleeps a lot, I feed it every 2-3hrs, and even have a stuffed animal in with it, any hints or tips?

    Cracked egg! :O

    So my BR just started laying, and 2/3 eggs have been either chipped, or cracked. I don't know if it is because shes curious and pecks at it, is not careful and cracks it, or I don't have enough bedding in the box. When I come out and gather eggs, the straw is bare in the middle, and scattered...
