The kittens have been in Science Diet kitten chow for a few weeks now and lots of fresh water. They are thriving and are very healthy.

I think Mia needs them more than they need her :-)
The good news is as I am typing, they are all curled up next to me and Mia is letting five of the shuttles dock. (Little Jan is just conked out against my leg) And she is “smiling”, not crying.

I forgot to say... Don’t let them nurse. If she does have mastitis, they are drinking the infection.
There are some vets that will tell you that it is okay to let them nurse. However, as a dog breeder, I can tell you that I completly disagree, and I have had the dead puppies to prove it.
