Thanks for all of the kind words about my latest little panther! [View all]

Merlin seems to get a BURST of energy at 2:30am. Those little baby claws!!! Especially when he tries to climb up my face! He looks like a very tiny black bear cub!

He is getting stronger and I'm thinking his leg strength will improve enough for him to start bumbling, in another few days.

Just like Cinder, from my first rescued litter, Merlin loves to crawl up on my shoulder to sleep.

Today I'm heading out to buy a different nursing bottle. Right now I'm feeding him with an eye dropper because he doesn't seem to like the nipple that came with the one I have.

Gryff is the most comfortable with Merlin. He comes up and gives him a few good sniffs and then settles down to watch him. Madoc and Arthur are still at that hissing stage but no swatting. I'll just keep increasing their exposure time to him. They've always come around to new siblings. Meanwhile, when I'm gone, Merlin will be in the carrier and out of their reach.
