to stand/swim in it -- and once Poppy had realised it was food she'd bound over and demolish it, so none left for her kittens to try even if they'd wanted to! Litter training was fun, rather than poop in the litter, the little ones wanted to eat it! Won't eat food but will eat cat litter... Puppy pads were put down everywhere in the room just in case, but within 5 minutes they were all pulled up in to a pile in the middle of the room and pounced on like it was a new game for them! By 6 weeks though, all but one of Poppy's litter were weaned on to biscuits (they still wouldn't touch wet food for some reason), little Patches just could not get her head round kitten food at all. I was really starting to worry about her and had asked another foster mum for help. Unfortunately, little Patches just preferred mum's milk! It wasn't until halfway through the seventh week she finally gave in and had some biscuits, she was on a roll then. When the kits hit about 5 weeks old, another two P's joined them, Pippa and Pepper. Both came from a multicat household, so weren't too fond of the other P's at first. After barely a couple of days, these two settled right in and soon became a part of the mad family. These were already weaned and litter trained so all that was left to do was enjoy them
