First bites of food

Today we decided that the kittens might possibly be ready to try some real food. Off Lee went to buy some kitten food. He came home and we tried it at the next feeding. How did it go??

Erica was not sure what to do, except she would take it from my fingers, then bite me. She literally drew blood with one of her bites! Those little teeth are sharp!! After a few minutes, she had it all figured out, and managed to eat about 1/4 of an ounce. Now, that isn't much until you think about this being the first real food she has tried!

Rosey was even less sure what to do, but she seemed to like the flavor. She ate what was put in her mouth, and then sucked Lee's food flavored finger. We have figured out with other things that Rosey's development is about a day or 2 behind Erica's, so Rosey will likely be eating by Saturday.

Casey, well Casey didn't really have a clue what was happening. She spit out any food that was placed in her mouth, and showed no interest in the small or taste. Again, we have figured out she is 2 or 3 days behind Erica, as far as Development, so Casey will likely be eating real food by Monday!!
