Fading Kitten?????
My current litter are coming up to 3 weeks old. I have been weighing them every day and all has been going fine.
Yesterday i didnt weigh them as I was very poorly myself with a sickness bug and could not get out of bed!
However, after weighing them today one of the kittens seems to have lost 10g. She seems fine in herself and I will give her some replacer milk as well just in case. But if her weight is not going up over the next 48 hours then i will take her to the vet.
I have read it could be a timing thing (i.e. she was weighed after a feed one day and before a feed the next day). But 10g seems quite significant to me when thats the average daily weight gain.
Could this be an early warning sign of fading kitten syndrome?
