Cat lovers of myLot! I am posting this video for your pleasure and enjoyment. This is the greatest little kitty I have seen in a long time. He doesn't just drink from the bottle - he holds it himself!! Check this out.... http://icanhascheezburger.com/2009/12/14/funny-pictures-video-kitteh-drinking-milk/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed:+ICanHasCheezburger+(I+CAN+HAS+CHEEZBURGER%3F) Isn't that just the cutest thing you've seen?? Have you ever had to bottle feed a kitten? Did the kitten hold the bottle or did you? I'm betting you did. Tell us about it!!

I have had several bottle babies. Oliver 4 years ago, the "Fearsome Foursome" 2 years ago, and while Jool was on the bottle this summer, she was chewing the nipples off the bottles. Because kittens really should be on their tummies to drink from a bottle, we had to hold them.

Having looked at the vid - that's a pretty big kitten to be drinking from the bottle - cute, but our kittens weren't that much bigger than the bottles when we started!

I wish they'd shown the whole thing instead of editing it to be shorter. I could have watched and watched. I've been trying to do more here and on Associated Content since Paul left. I didn't do anything while he was here. It took me five months to make payout!! But, I'm there and now I'm only adding to it. Might not get it until January, but at least I'll get it, ya know?

Hey Jerz!! You've made payout on Associated Content? I've not done a thing on so many sites for so long...I SUCK!!!! Now that I'm back with cable highspeed, I hope to get my butt into gear soon and start making some cash; I've been trying to go to the "Y" everyday to Acqua-size which is great for me, but once I get home, shower, eat some dinner I'm wiped out and have to take a nap...if I don't then I can't stay awake for my evening shows like yesterday I messed around didn't get my nap and had to fall into bed before 7:00 p.m. how sad is that? then of course I was up at 3:00 a.m. and have been up ever since; (sigh)! must leave soon for the farm then its off to the "Y" again...

I never got a notice that you commented again - no, I didn't reach payout on AC. Just here this month. How much did you pay for the Y? Here it's like $200 to join. I can't understand that at all. How can poor people enjoy the Y so much if they can't afford it? And, I know people are worse off than me and I can't afford it. Not that it's very nearby. They are few and far between here.

my first cat i had to feed with an eyedropper he was so small. they let us have him early because the shelter was overfull. he quickly graduated to eating regular food however.

That's how my mom saved a kitten I found behind my grandfather's barn - it's eyes weren't even opened yet. We assumed it was abandoned by it's mama or she was in the process of moving them and hadn't taken him yet. But, Mom fed him with an eyedropper until he could feed himself. We named him Pygmy because he was so tiny.

They probably got this one before he was weaned, so he was still nursing. He is adorable, for sure, though.

hi jerzgirl nope never had a kitten that needed bottle feeding but I had a brain damaged baby that had to be fed with squeezing the bottle into her mouth. she did not have natural instincts of sucking at all. But she learned to eat solid foods at a early age. I love kittens so will have to watch that video for sure.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, Hatley. That had to have been terribly hard on you. But, I'm glad she was eventually able to eat solids. You'll love watching this little one!! I just know it.
