Baby kitten 1 - mum had called her 'xian xian'
Baby kitten 2 - mum had called him ' he he'
Yesterday, dad's workplace manager had 'act smart' when he saw two kittens without their mummy. He took them to find dad thinking that dad can take care of them. Seeing them so tiny, both my dad and his manager decided to put back the kittens. However, this morning, their mummy had still not returned to claim back her babies. My guess is when the kitties were picked up, human smell were on them so their real mummy rejected her own babies.
Dad had bought a milk bottle for the kittens and planned to feed them human milk. Then we told dad that kittens cannot drink human milk. In fact, it is a misconcept that all cats love milk. This is not correct as milk can sometimes causes cats to have diarrhoea. I once told two secondary girls that feed 'fake nana' HiLo milk that milk is not good for cats. I wonder why most people tend to think that milk is ok for cat.
Dad then said he would feed the two kittens tml in the morning only. We told dad that even if he feed them once, it is not enough. Being week-old kittens, they need more meals per day. So today, dad took the kittens home.
Both sister and I are not experienced with feeding kittens using milk bottles. So mum demonstrated how to feed the kittens. Mum said it is just like feeding human babies. I hope both kittens will be stronger and get more used to their milk bottle. Mum had called them 'xian xian' and 'he he' after the TVB drama "Hard Fate" where the lead casts were crazy over the 'he he er xian' (Jade of harmony). HK temple had lot of ppl workshipping the he he er xian for peace. In Singapore, the temple in Defu industries estate (i think is feng shan si) had a 'he he er xian' Mum said that it is to bless couples to live in love and harmony.
He He is a ginger that is not willing to suck the milk bottle while xian xian is the quiet kitten that is more co-operative.
