If you recall, on Oliver's first visit to the vet back in December they estimated him at 4 months old. Which seemed too old.
Last week, they made a new, very specific estimate. I think they may still be a bit off, in the other direction, but closer now.
They estimated his actual DOB as being 11/06. We trapped him in the bushes at the mall on 11/24. That puts him at 2.5 weeks when we found him. I was thinking more like 3.5 weeks at that point.
He was wandering around, on his own, with no sign of a mama or littermates nearby. He managed solid food pretty easily. (Though it did take a but longer to get him to pay attention to dry.)
Maybe it's wishful thinking on my part, but I believe he was born closer to 10/31, sooooo, I'm declaring that to be his birthday.
That puts him at 13 weeks tomorrow.
