Well, I tried to sort out the little ones into two piles again, since Luni not only won't go near the consolidated pile, but runs from it as though a cat or something is going to spring from that very spot. I figured, maybe if I sorted them again, Luni would help out with the nursing. It wasn't too hard to figure out whose was whose: Tia's are

Sometimes new mothers don't have the instinct/knowledge to care for babies. I've seen that explained in some documentaries about zoos, where the keepers have to step in to save a baby from a mother who can't or won't care for a newborn. It may have something to do with being raised in captivity, according to one show I saw about gorillas.

It's really hard, I know, and I sympathize. You're doing all you can, and it's heartbreaking. Many, many hugs.

We have a family of wild kittens outside, though they are more along the lines of adolescent now. It was 5 kittens originally, 2 boys and 3 girls. We fed and feed them and the mom and dad cat on a daily basis. They basically live in our garage/back yard and treat our back yard as their home.

One of the girl kittens was hit by a car about 2 months ago. I had to come home to find her in the gutter. It was very hard to bury her - but I went so far as to get a container so nothing could mess with her while she was at peace.

It was very hard...they are family to me - and family is family..so you don't need to feel silly or worry if people will be critical of you for treating it as a death in the family. I know how that feeling is, and I still hurt for the kitten I lost. It's a lot harder when it is a young life that is taken. You want to ask 'Why? Why so young?' :/
