But I did  really wonder where all
the kitten poop was when my cat had a litter of  four under the couch while
we were on vacation 14 years  ago.



Daer Friends:
    I understand that mamma cats and dogs have to lick  their babies' bellies 
so they will pee and poop; mom eats all the  elimination.
    Please remember Tiffany Field PhD and her research  showing that premies 
that were massaged once a shift for 15 minutes for 5-10  days gained more 
weight (on the same amount of food as the non-massaged  controls) and went home 
sooner.
    We have to promote the right hormonal climate for a  baby to gain too.
    warmly,
