I am so pleased with myself. (LOL)

The orphan babies are sucking on each other in a bad way. I had to
separate them. They apparently need to suck really bad.

So here's what I did. I made a surrogate mother.

I took a carboard tube, and covered it with fleece. I punched two
small holes in it, and stuck through two
infant nipples without holes, and taped the back to the tube. Inside
the tube, I put a small bag daughter brought from the hospital, and
filled it
with hot water. Just for good measure I put an old watch in there. OK,
it doesn't sound like a heartbeat,
and it will probably psychologically screw them up, but they are
*sucking on it*. And not sucking on each other's genitals.

I hated to sepate them. They need each other to stay warm. Oh yay. I
love it when you win the small ones.

That sounds so cool. They stay happy and get exercise and everything.

How long start to finish is a feeding taking? How often?

A kitty pacifier! What a clever idea.

And in a year when they are older, they will need to see a
psychiatrist? To see why they are attracted to clocks, and can
only fall asleep with ticking?

When I was a kid, we put a wind up alarm clock in with the kitty,
and it turned out fine. I thought the cardboard tube with nipples
was very creative.

How long start to finish is a feeding taking? How often?

I've got them on a 4-hour schedule. It takes about 30-40 minutes, by
the time you
burp them, and massage their bottoms to make them eliminate. Also they
have to be cleaned
up, and I usually rub them all over for a few minutes like the mom
does.
