Just thought of share a picture of ray. My cat dumped him at a week old after her other kitten died. I found him he was cold hard and taking his last breaths. I brought him home and warmed him up fed him a little sugar and he was up feeding in an hour. Feeds every two hours for the first 4 weeks and we are up to 4-5 hourly feeds now. He's now Made it to 6 weeks he's now over 400g and thriving. Very small still but mighty oaks from little acorns grow  I have two of his brothers at home so hopefully he can join the clan soon. |

He's amazing. He went to the vets yesterday as he's a bit sniffly and they put him on steroids. He's been invincible ever since I can't keep up chasing him round the house |

Glad he is doing well and still putting weight on :-) xx Thank you for all your help and advice. It was very much appreciated. He's now eating a little meat. He's continuing to put weight on and even being a bit poorly he hasn't dropped weight. He's crackers though he's so playful now and is really recognising everyone and learning to climb and run about. I'm proud of him still taking a day at a time but I think we are getting there. Thanks again |

Awww, he's just so gorgeous - I love kittens so much, you'll never need a TV with this adorable little chap around to watch grow up and have fun enjoying life. Very good luck with him and keep us all posted with regular kitty updates and a piccy or two. Hope he thrives on all the love he's clearly getting.

Ahh thank you very much here's the little sausage about to tuck into his well earned beer on Friday night. He's so diddy! Still doing well he put on 100g last weeks so he's going the right way. Hes made it to 7 weeks old. He needs worming really but he's to small at the minute the vets don't want to try his little system. But as I work at a vets and he comes with me every day he's getting some good care. He's got such an attitude now he doesn't keep still and is into everything. He takes on the Labrador and chihuahua at home and thinks he's as big as his brothers. Love him |

Bless him. He reminds me of one of our pug puppies we had to hand rear last year. He was 1/3 the size of his siblings and I have to be honest I was convinced that every day I would wake to find him dead!!!! But no, little Boddington was a fighter and went to a fantastic home.

I thought I'd find him dead I've been so worried as he was completely on deaths door when I eventually found him. He is tiny for his age but has plenty of sparkle. Gill I wonder how many more presents I can take being brought, his two brothers are terrible for bringing things to the window and they both look so pleased with themselves. Hope they don't teach Ray the ropes.

What a little superstar, I'd be looking at getting him into advertising - how irresistible would Ray be on TV. He's looking so well and bright as a button, very well done, he'll love you forever and rightly so. He's a proper little miracle baby.

He's shot up ( he's still teeny) and is doing great thank you very much for asking. He had a bad accident on Sunday night, he fell 12 ft down our landing onto the concrete floor below knocking himself out. I was inconsolable, I thought he was dead. He slept all Monday but was back to his normal self on Tuesday. Thank goodness. He's made it 8 weeks old, which is great as I didn't think he's make 8 days. He's so much fun to have around and he's a real hit with clients at work. Attached are a Couple of selfies and one with my old oriental and his brother Randy. |

Here he is the pest, he's having a little toilet trouble this week I think it's because he's hand reared he's struggling. He's been watching the other cats go to the loo but hasn't been learning lol! The things I get myself Into |

Awww, he is just adorable. Maybe worth a try to place him in the litter tray after each meal and massage his tummy gently to stimulate him just before you pop him in. Also worth trying some Feliway spray near the tray, to relax him. The mother cat would lick her kittens tummy to stimulate him to toilet hence the massage idea. My friend does this with her Russian Blue kittens that have issues and it appears to work well for her and she has bred for many years with great success. Good luck and keep us posted all about him.

What a superstar - truly a cat in a million. He should be in advertising, a television dream kitten.
Thankyou for my Ray fix, so much happier now, have had a rubbish day and to see little Ray has cheered me up no end.
A true Ray of Sunshine. Good luck and give him a kiss from me x

Thank you all. I've put so much time and effort into him. He's really growing now. We've passed the 1kg mark. I just need to teach him he doesn't need to be in attack mode 24/7. He has no fear
