I received a puppy from a liter that was rejected from the mother dog at the age of 1 day old!..I had to bottle feed our new puppy every 2 hours for 4 weeks! It was like having a new born baby all over again...She is now our families best friend...Do you have a simular story?..

We have raised not puppies from birth but kittens from birth. We helped feed it with little droppers and set up litter with news paper so it's little kitten feet didn't get hurt until I grew older. I used to always watch it cuddle up with the momma and when it got old enough to be away from momma I would play with it on my own. I love kittens :)

I do not. I get my dogs at about 8 weeks old. My cat was hard to find out, but maybe 7-9 weeks old. She is still kitten. Playing crazy right now withmy mouse.

No but I did have a kitty who I had since she was 3 weeks old and her mom was killed. I even had to give her baths every time she pooed. My daughter asked why I had to keep bathing her if that is what the momma kitty did and of course without thinking I told her no the momma liked her clean. She got a real confused look on her face and asked me why I didn't do that. I have a really good bond with my kitty though even if she is sometimes liek having another uncontrollable kid.
