Am I right thinking he is still only 3 weeks old?  :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:  Well done you  :clap:

Most beautiful little chap I've ever clapped eyes on  :Luv: :Luv: :Luv: His markings look sort of somewhere between our Bobby and Boris.

Everything crossed he continues to thrive

Squeak!  :Luv: So pleased he's thriving under your care, I really don't know how you do it with a baby to look after aswell, not to mention all the other cats :Crazy:

I've done a route plan and it's only 385 miles and 6 1/2 hours for  me to come and get him  :naughty:

sorry for the delay folks in getting an update to you things at the Harbour are exceptionally hectic.

Pleased to say that wee Ali is still with us and a wee gutsy boy.  We were in shock to watch him toddle off to the litter tray of his own accord at just 19 days old and have a pee!!!   He is a wee gem and a good set of lungs on him by the screaming he does every day!! LOL

Here is a couple of update pics for you all....

I can report folks that Ali is doing well.  He is putting on weight and growing well and is definitely much brighter and happier and full of energy.  Just have to hope that this continues and we have no unexpected set backs  :wish:

I am sorry for the delay in an update however we are utterly swamped with cases at the moment.

I have added a few photos for you all below of the little man that have been taken over the last few days.  He is now 8 days old... paws and fingers are all very well crossed.

its definately a clip for you tube :evillaugh:

every day hes here , hes getting stronger..Im sure he is going to thrive with the one on one attention you are giving him.
I dont know much about raising tiny kittens..sorry... but if you arent already then keeping a weight chart could help, it msy not be apparent how much weight hes gaining when you are with him all the time, whilst when you can see him gaining weight it may set your mind at rest.
he does look adorable...i confess he has made me kitten broody :-[

Oh bless him .... is there anyway you could find him a cat foster mum Sarah?

its a lovely thought but for me the risks outweigh the benefits.  That said our success rate with hand rears is so high that I don't think it would really make a difference.

If he is destined to make it and he continues to develop properly then there should be no reason to lose him.  If we do lose him now then there is something else going on in that wee body of his.   All we can do is wait and see and keep plodding along for him.

He is full of spirit and character so hopefully that will see him through as it has seen him this far.  :Luv2:
