Maybe a little.  :wink: I admit it is pretty fun when they're on the bottle. I never had a real baby to do that with ,so the kittens get spoiled on the bottle.  :biggrin:
Don't blame you a bit 'cause I know I'd be the same way.

If you wanna save money you could do it the old fashioned way. :biggrin:  I'm totally kidding!

I think it's very sweet how much you love your animals. My animals come second only to Lil' Mojo and even then I think it's a toss up sometimes. ;D They listen better than she does. ;D

I'm happy to find out that Dex Jr. is doing so well. :yes:

I told Hubby tonight that I named the kitten Dexter, and he rolled his eyes at me LOL!!! The girls at the vet's office thought it was cute. The past 3 nights Hubby hadn't seen the kitten, because he was asleep when Hubby got ready for work. Tonight, I woke the little stinker up, and Hubby had a chance to hold him,and play with him. He says he can tell he's gained weight.  :yes:

The old fashioned way? *gulp*  :eek: It would be cheaper.  :biggrin: A can of dry powder formula is $12 at Walmart. I think we might go through a can a week. Walmart beats the thought of tender nipples, and leakage all to heck LMAO!!! I'm stickin' with the powder!!!  :biggrin: He is just doing AWESOME!!!! He's got the spirit of a fighter, and he seems smarter than the average kitten... he he, I'm bragging here.....  :biggrin: .... that's my boy.  :biggrin:

He's doing real good tonight. I had to work over a couple of extra hours today. One of our managers (the one I do like  :biggrin:) asked me, if I'd stay over for her, because her Dad was having heart surgery this afternoon. I could never say no to something that serious.  :no: So, when I got home the little stinker was starving. So, the first thing I did was get the boy a ba ba.  :yes: Tomorrow is the big day.... the staples are being taken out at 10:45 in the morning. Hubby is going with us. I'm glad because I will probably want to hold the kitten on the way home. He might not feel too good, after they take them out. I'm taking a warm ba ba with us for the ride home. Maybe, it will take the edge off LOL!!! Maybe, I better take a nerve pill to take the edge off for me LMAO!!! I'm sure we'll be fine, I just hope if the kitten cries, I don't cry with him. I have a tendency to cry when I see animals suffering. It's OK though.... the vet knows how I am LOL!!!  He knows I'm a Super Freak when it comes to my animals.  :yes:

Maybe the vet will give him something to relax him and he won't even care.  Heck he might do better than it sounds like you're going to...lol

I may have said this before, but when I come back, I wanna be one of Dex's cats. :biggrin:

Dex, I've had two experiences w/staples. Once after my daughter was born C-Section and the nurse came to my house to take them out. I felt nothing...at all. IIRC it was about a week after she was born.

Then my daughter had a collision w/a set of metal staircase to a slide and busted her little head open. OMG! I'll never forget rushing to the hospital and to the back of the ER and she's chatting and laughing away w/the nurses. Then she saw me and busted out crying. :biggrin: So, they had to put the staples in and she held my hand, but I had to look away because I was crying and I didn't want her to see me. I just knew it was going to hurt. When I look back she's perfectly fine and the nurse is laughing at me. LOL Anyway, taking them out was a snap. I stopped back by the hospital a week or so later on the way to the park. It took 5 minutes. She didn't even flinch.

So, hopefully, it'll be that easy for the kid. :yes:

Baby Dexter did great at the vet's today!!! Mommy did too LOL!!! He only cried once, one of the staples had scabbed over. He was more upset with being held down than anything. It only took a few minutes. I had a warm ba ba in the car, and boy I'm glad I packed it along with us. As soon as we got in the car, I whipped it out,and he almost drank the whole thing. We had a few errands to run, so I stayed in the car with him, while Hubby stopped at several different places. I'm soooo proud of him!!!!  I'm going to post pictures of him either tonight or tomorrow!!! Hubby is going to help me with that. Then everybody can see what a doll he is.  :smitten: I asked the vet when he can have a bath, and she said it's OK to do it now, but I'm not suppose to scrub the incision, or get any soap on it. I'll probably wait a couple more days to bath him. He is such a good boy.  :smitten:

I don't know when we'll get them taken LOL!!! We went to the Quad Cities today to pick up a used Corolla for Hubby.He's been spending $175 a week on gas back and forth to work. He had to find something cheaper to drive. :yes:

I was up a lot last night. Baby Dex had the diarrhea. I'd just doze off,and I was awoken, by the sounds of explosive diarrhea ,coming from his carrier LOL!!! So, each time that happened, I'd take him out, clean him up, and change his bedding. I know I did that at least 4 times. He's better today. I'm trying to get him to take some canned food, but he isn't interested in anything, but his bottle. I've gotten crafty, by putting the canned kitten food ,in the bottle with his formula. He doesn't even know it's in there.  :sneaky: I also tried some Kitten Chow moistened in formula, but he didn't take the bait LOL!!! He is absolutely spoiled rotten. I think he's gonna be a suck tit.  :spooked: Nothing wrong with a boy who loves his Mama.  :biggrin:

If he has diarrhea you could try a little rice baby cereal in his bottle too. Just a dab.
