The Day I've Had...

Mojito · Updated 04/30/23:

Mojito lifted eyes, nearly swimming with tears as he struggled to wrap his head around what was before him even as his heart flooded with love, as Asla spoke. He blinked slowly, and when she put a paw on his own he gently nosed it before turning his attention towards his daughter... his daughter! Satira, he rolled her name around in his mind as he watched her. They were both lovely, lovely little bundles and lovely names. How it had happened was less a miracle to him than their mother, however, it wasn't as if he ever expected it of course but he was at least aware that that rare as it was, it was possible for a litter of pups to be born of two different fathers... But before this moment he'd never had any reason to assume it would ever happen to him.

The rest however finally was enough to rend his gaze from Satira as she suckled at her mother's side. "I'm sorry I wasn't there as well." His brow furrowed in concern. "There weren't any complications were there? Did you pass your Placenta? No excessive bleeding?" She seemed fine, but these things could still carry negative connotations for her or her pups if it turned out that something had gone wrong, the placenta especially...

It seemed however that Asla's concerns were on her children and Mojito scooted forward on his stomach slightly, nosing at each of them, ignoring their high pitched squeals of protest as he gently sniffed at them and nudged them slightly, tiny paws paddling at the air... that was a good sign. He turned to look at their mother again. "As long as they're both eating until their full, and you've got a healthy appetite they should be good, there are more checks we can do as they develop but for now it's only worth concerning yourself over if you notice they're not eating enough or struggling to pass food with a little stimulation." He paused for a moment chewing on an addition: "I brought some alfalfa just in case, if you find you're running a little dry it can help if you eat it, but only as a last resort we don't want to risk adding anything to your milk production that could affect them. Food should be good enough. If you're struggling though let me know." His tone was serious, sometimes mother's couldn't produce enough milk for their litter and in that case it would be important make sure they were still getting developmentally important sustenance some other way.
