Actually, the mom and kittens aren't doing that great. The mother is severely malnourished, dehydrated, anemic and full of worms. I have been feeding her also by syringe and treating her eyes and worms. Some people would not worm her until the kittens are older, but the kittens have no chance if she doesn't start producing more and better quality milk, so I wormed her. I also vaccinated her, hoping to begin protection against distemper, herpes and various kitty cold viruses. Might be a bit too late, however. She's tame. Two boys, three girls of the five kittens. Their eyes aren't yet open.

They're doing much better today. The mom lets me pet her, then will purr. I've been treating her herpes eye with terrmycin and it's 100% improved already. The kittens are improving also, although I am supplementing with some bottle feeding. They're really cute.
What a beautiful family. We're all praying and purring for them.
Those kitties are so lucky to haf you care for them! Purrs!
Hooray for you! Those are some lucky kitties, give 'em a hug for me!
Thanks, all. They're doing great. I'll get more photos tomorrow.
Those kittens are so cute. Keep up your hard work. I hope they pull through. Those poor cats don't deserve to be treated so poorly. Thank you for taking good care of them/
