Khom,
Good to know of your Indian connection. My kittens run from chapatis too.
In India, people love cats but they are very much ignorant about them. They do not know that cow’s milk is bad. That is why, most people feed their cats with cow’s milk when they are weaned. No one specially prepares any kind of food for cats. Most cats feed on leftovers from meals. So making puree or buying canned food is the last thing one would do. In fact, some of my neighbors find it strange that I prepare food for my kittens.
Out here cats are not vaccinated or spayed/ neutered. They are never taken to vets. They thrive on their own. It is survival of the fittest. However, things are changing.
Yes, I’m gonna keep Pepper and Mint. They are family now.
Both have learned to eat fish, chicken and egg yolk, and have just begun to eat liver. Mint is putting on some weight, but Pepper continues to be tiny. They drink water from a bowl, but will refuse to drink milk (baby formula) unless fed in a bottle. They love the attention and will continue to suck on the nipple till they fall asleep.
Here’s a video of them playing:
