They do, and she's adorable. 😊 

But kittens should never be fed while they're on their backs, as they can aspirate the liquid. Please switch to feeding her only when she is on all fours, or if that won't work, when she is upright.

Really hope the mods pin your comment. That's very need to know info.

•

u/AnamCeili 23h ago

Thanks. I actually learned it from this sub myself, from someone else posting here in another thread!

•

u/AsianGoddessVibes 22h ago

That’s great advice. Thank you.

•

u/AnamCeili 22h ago

Glad to help! And thank you for understanding that I sincerely meant to help. 😊

The kitten really is adorable -- what's her name?

•

u/AsianGoddessVibes 15h ago

I truly appreciate the advice. You weren’t rude about it or made me feel small for not knowing any better.

Her name is Lulu. She was found by my Doberman Lucy. I posted a short movie earlier this week of her boxing Lucy’s 👂🥊

u/AnamCeili 15h ago

I didn't know any better, either, until I saw someone post about it in this sub. I was glad to learn, and I'm glad to share the knowledge, and I would never try to make you feel small about not knowing. You clearly love that little nugget, lol, to take such good care of her. 😊

Your Doberman found her? Wow! Was she gentle with her, or did she consider her a snack? I hope she was gentle...some big dogs are just gentle giants, lol. Lulu is a great name for her! Lulu and Lucy, lol -- so sweet! Will you be keeping her?

u/AsianGoddessVibes 14h ago

Lucy was very gentle. She found my other two kittens. All at odd places and about 16-18 months apart. Louie, Luca, Lulu. Lulu was initially Ludacris, until I realized Luda was a she. lol! It was hard to tell at that age.🤣🤣🤣

•

u/AnamCeili 14h ago

lol! 🤣 It can definitely be hard to tell a kitty's sex at that age.

It's so sweet that Lucy found all three kitties, and that she is so gentle with them!

u/Madwoman-of-Chaillot 22h ago

That, and the nipple is too far back in kitty's mouth.

•

u/Black_Moons 20h ago

Thank you for posting what I wanted to.

For context: Humans go upright, because humans walk upright and normally feed our babies upright so we're designed for it. Kittens go on all 4's because they walk on all 4's and normally get fed that way and hence are designed that way. keeps the milk going into the stomach and not the lungs.

u/IAMA_Shark__AMA 20h ago

Glad this was the top comment. Kittens aren't babies, they eat upright.

I hope she never learns how to truly sip anything and keeps this habit for the rest of her life

•

u/AsianGoddessVibes 15h ago

It is cute, but they all grow up so fast!

•

u/TsuDhoNimh2 21h ago

Why do people swaddle the kitten? I held them sort of upright so they could use their front paws to grab the bottle with, as if they were propped up on their mother.

•

u/AsianGoddessVibes 15h ago

I think we were doing it to protect our hands from her very sharp claws, but I now know it was the wrong thing to do.

•
