He has been so small and sickly he hasn't had any vaccines yet due to his ailing health, so worms are a possibility. Thanks for the responces! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22588#post-465878 Mon, 02 Nov 2009 10:13:42 +0000 feral 465878@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Echoing CBM...it could be worms. If kitty has been wormed,then you may have yourself a runt. There's always a runt in a litter. :)<br /> I have to add...my Spunky was the runt of Prettygirl's litter &amp; at less than 3 yrs.old,he's now a whopping 20 lbs. of locomotive furr on legs. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22588#post-465874 Mon, 02 Nov 2009 10:08:12 +0000 CheetahBoysmommy 465874@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Has he been checked for worms? If he has them, they are eating his food and leaving him nothing to grow on. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22588#post-465867 Mon, 02 Nov 2009 09:54:46 +0000 sheflly 465867@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Does anyone have any suggetions or know why? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22588#post-465775 Sun, 01 Nov 2009 21:45:43 +0000 SnowFlower 465775@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hey, long time since I've been on here, been busy! </p> <p>Question for you smart cat meow-mys and daddys:</p> <p>My 8 week old foster kitten is looking like he is only 3 or 4 weeks old size and weight-wise. He is as lively as a month old kitten and will climb his nursery cage but he is still very tiny. He eats like a moose and is eating the kitten chow provided by the Humane Society...but won't grow. Any ideas? </p>
