I just got home from the vet hoping that they could save Carmelita, but it was too late and she passed away in my hands. My biggest worry now is the two babies and Sly. The babies are both a month old and looked like they had started to eat on their own, but I do they still need milk? and if so is there a recipe I can make? I am just very distraught and am worried about Sly becoming depressed because Carmelita has passed away. I plan to get Sly neutered and was hoping I could keep one of the baby gliders with him. Would getting him neutered and keeping the female baby be okay?

Yes, they will still need to be supplemented. You can keep them with dad, he will clean them up and keep them warm.

I am trying to get someone to help you with what to feed them.

The only problem I am having as of now is that Sly seems a bit stressed and was searching the cage for Carmelita, but other than that Connie helped me with everything.

He needs his grieving time, poor guy.

The one baby is okay with eating the formula but the other wont budge and gets more on himself than in his mouth

So far the girl(blonde) is eating like a pro and doesn't need me to help feed her, her brother on the other hand is very stubborn when it comes to drinking the formula, but I am able to get him to do it after a while of coaxing it towards him.

He's doing such an awesome job of helping daddy raise the babies and helping dad through his grief.

I'm so proud!
