You really should pat yourself on the back and say well done, because that’s not easy to achieve. Too often in here we see posts where people buy 6 week old kittens weighing 380grams and a fortnight later they are only 400grams… and those posts …. I won’t even go there. Suffice to say they tear my heart out.

And any advice I might have given you in the past regards food… it came from Billyboysmammy or Hobbs, lol and was just regurgitated by me. I am on a massive learning curve too when it comes to food.

I don’t know the high life food (or feline fayre) I think they are British brands and we can’t get them here. But it’s on my “please bring from the UK” list for any visitors I might get, lol.

its nice now to relax a bit, they have 2 and a half meals a day now.

the highlife food is alright its a tiny bit more expensive then grau i think but its available in supermarkets here ( not all tho ) but its nice to be able to see them enjoying it. they like the chicken n liver one the best ( you can actually see liver pieces in it too)

where do you come from ?? im sure if i have some cans or any of the pouches left over after iv introduced the grau to my kitties i could send you some ?

All your efforts on the kittens weights has certainly paid off ... and you now have two chubby 10 week olds. That's no mean feet and something you really should be very proud of. You must pass your knowledge on in the many "my kitten won't eat" posts.
