Subject: bonding with new joeys... OOP 1 1/2 wks
Posted by CandiMI on May 19, 1999 at 08:09:11:

Hi!

If you've seen my previous postings you know that I have four little girls OOP approx 1 1/2 wks... two of which aren't doing well, so their main bonding time right now will simply be trying to suppliment their mothers nursing with puppy milk.

as for the other two... I need some advice on how to begin the bonding process. I have one of them crawling around on me right now, but she's a crabby little girl... almost constant complaining and crabbing ( so strange to hear it comming from such a small little one )whenever I touch her or talk to her it just gets louder, is this what collic is like LOL I've offered her a halved grape to smell and that just got her crabbing louder. I'd like to know if I should just let them explore on my shirt etc or if I should carry them around in a pouch/pocket, if I should hold them in my hand etc? Also should I work with one at a time or can I hold and carry around 2 or more ( there will be four god willing I can get the little ones healthy )

thanks for your advice and help!

Candi and the critter crew
