Thanks so much for your reply! Unfortunately, I am not able to bring my little colony in to feed indoors. I have three indoor cats, one with IBD and is easily stressed, And it just wouldn’t be possible. Currently, I feed them in the mornings, in the evenings before it gets dark, and have been...

hello! I care for a small colony and live on about ten acres. Over the past couple of years, I have been okay feeding the raccoons and possums that inevitably make their way to my porch. However, over the past few months, our raccoon population has gotten out of control. They are coming out...

And she just got up and had more diarrhea and vomited :(

You are truly my hero, Sarthur2. Truly. Thank you so very much for your support, comfort, advice, and help. I was just thinking of making a little pallet on the floor in my bathroom and letting her sleep next to me in here. Which I will do. Anything I can do to help bring her peace and comfort...

She's asleep on my lap now, and I hate to put her back in her crate bc it just an added stressor for her :( thank you for your kindness and support as I sit here alone with this sweet baby on my lap...and I'm trying not to worry.

Poor sweet baby! My heart is breaking for her. The mark down near her leg is the tattoo they give for the surgery. Do I need to call the emergency number for the clinic and/or take her in somewhere tonight? I honestly don't have any extra money for this, but if it is life or death, then I need...

What's interesting about the small bump at the incision site is that she came home with it after surgery...I forgot to mention that. Now it looks red and a little more swollen than it was.

This entire foster experience has been so stressful and scary. Literally living on a prayer some nights that they would be okay and make it! Thank you both so much for your quick and amazingly helpful responses!

Sorry! Here's a picture of the incision...

Thank you! Yes, she did! I think it's the FVRP (not sure if that's the correct lettering?) that she received. Thank you for helping me feel better that she will be okay tonight. How much more pedialyte should I try to get in her? She really hates me giving it to her. She normally is...

I just read the link you shared, thank you!! I'm even more worried now. Especially because it is red, and she's not eating.

There is no pus, and the incision doesn't feel any warmer than the rest of her body. But it's hard to tell :( The diarrhea started yesterday, and is worse today.

Thank you so much for your response! She had really bad diarrhea after given a round of dewormer, and then it got better, then her stools have progressively gotten looser since the surgery. It's especially bad today. I will move her crate to be in the same room with mom and sibling. I'm hoping...

It's really hard to tell. I'm petting her in my lap, and she's in general pretty warm. I'm so concerned :( she starts purring when I pet her, so maybe that is bringing her comfort at least?

I have been fostering two kittens and a mama. The kittens are now weaned, and just had their spay/neuter surgery on Thursday. The female kitten's incision is red, and looks like a little bump is underneath it. The rescue agency is concerned, so I've had to crate her to keep her calm and less...
