Pow Wow is an awesome mama - but I caught hernursing her babies twice today....and that was after nursing themduring the middle of the night.
I think she knocks over her nestbox or something and they come crawlingout and looking around and she nurses them again. All I know is afterfeeding them during the night - she fed them again around noon today.
Then I was feeding later (suppertime) and heard some cooing sortof. She was chattering to her babies and calling them over toher - the nestbox was knocked over AGAIN and it had been in a corner soshe had to do it....
I'm just wondering if she nurses them so much 'cause she's bored...
(Sundae isn't doing as well and I'm thinking about adding one or two ofher babies to Pow Wow since Pow Wow is already fostering three from thelitter. They were born last Wednesday night orThursday....would she be able to handle more babies if they were added?I thought I might add one from Sundae's five (she lost one of herbabies). Sundae originally had nine babies....
