A highly recommended product that comes in very handy when fur-mommies need help with the supplementation for their babies is the "Pet-Ag Nursing Kit".  This kit includes bottles, nipples and cleaning brush.  It is always good to be prepared when you have new fur-babies. :heart:  :flower:  :paw:

Do you need to know when your fur-babies are going to be born?  Cheesy  If you do, you might want to purchase a Breeder Slide Chart.  You could purchase this chart @ http://www.revivalanimal.com/store/p/70-Breeder-Slide-Chart.aspx

It is very affordable @ $2.69.....will come in handy for all breeders.  :up:  :flower:  :paw:

Now this product is so cute and helpful for kittens that are adjusting to a new home/or are lacking its mother's natural gentle nurturing....It is the Snuggle Kittie.  
It  consists of: Two 20-hour disposable heaters
One terrycloth pouch
One "heart" with batteries
Great product....and so sweet!  :up:  :flower:  :paw:

One recommendation that I always make to new breeders is to learn how to tube feed newborns. I know a lot of people are intimidated by it because if you screw it up, you can kill the kitten, but I can't tell you how many lives I've saved by doing this procedure. Many newborns don't have a good sucking reflex and you can drown them by trying to feed them milk with a syringe, and that is why tube feeding comes in handy. PandEcats online mag has a step by step photo essay on how to tube feed. All new breeders should invest the $50 fee to join PandEcats if only to read the information on newborns and birthing techniques! It will be a WISE investment- believe me, but your vet may be able to instruct you in tube feeding as well. I buy my french feeding tubes online at:

I get the 3.5 size for newborns. Buy more than one, they get stiff after a few uses... :paw:
