Title: URGENT! Surrogate Mum Needed Derbyshire/Nottingham area (RIP Gaz xx)
Post by: CCCR on February 02, 2013, 00:53:44 AM

Does anyone have a mummy cat who would be able to be a surrogate? Maybe one who has recently had a litter and still has milk? Baby Gaz has gone down hill rapidly again we are back to syringe feeding him (he wont accept the bottle) and he is refusing the milk managing to get water and honey in him though to try and rehydrate! Thinking a surrogate mummy might be better for him, we tried with Ruby and she is just hissing and growling at him :( Lilo started to wash him but then lost interest :(
Gaz is 23 days old today, he has been latching on to mummy today but she has either stopped producing or isn't producing enough milk.
We have been offered a surrogate in Sheffield however he is to weak to travel that far at the moment so if we could find someone closer it would be better for him.

Gaz didn't make it despite attempts at hand rearing by very dedicated people.  :( (And Andrea had no nursing mothers in at this time.)

Rest Easy, Gaz.
