No, it's not a guinea pig :lol: he's 5 weeks old & the only survivor from a litter of 4
They were born by caesarian & the mother rejected them all. The cats owners were not prepared or able to hand rear the kits so a foster mum took them on. sadly 3 have died but this little scrap is a fighter :wub:
His foster mum is on holiday so I'm in charge till Friday. He wasn't weaned yesterday but as I didn't relish getting up throughout the night, I was really ruthless yesterday & let him go hungry till he decided to eat. Now he can't shovel enough in at once & is the same colour as his food :lol:
The dogs are as usual, Hebe totally indifferent, Scrumpy slightly interested & Rafferty is all aquiver :clown:
Scrumpy has surprised me by how blase she's been as she will chase anything that moves & this is a very mobile squeaky furry thing. She has even helped out by doing the cleaning up at the smelly end :x
