2 weeks ago I was driving down the road on a terribly rainy morning and a small black kitten was staggering across in front of me. I stopped and grabbed her and took her to work with me. She was freezing, soaking wet, gums were white, emaciated- skin and bones. I got her heated up, her blood...
So I have fostered a ton of kittens over the last few years but this is a first for me. These guys are huge- and I know near nothing about any breeds besides your average domestics.
These 3 (2 tabbys are boys, the mostly white/tabby one is a girl) are almost 14 weeks old. I pulled them from the...
I am asking because we have been having a lot of digestive and diarrhea issues in our rescue with bottle babies, way more than normal. It seems to be hitting around 3-4 weeks. Our vets cannot figure out what is causing it- it is not parasite related, not coccidia, giardia, etc. Most of the...
I foster cats for a rescue and currently have an expecting momma. She is a young little tortie girl, estimated to be around 6-8 months old. She weighed in at only a little over 4 lbs when we pulled her 2 weeks ago. Usually the shelter we pull from (a high kill shelter) spays pregnant cats before...
I have posted a few times about some of these kittens. I'm going to try not to write a book here but I want to make sure I give all relevant info because I need advice!
All these kittens were pulled from the shelter at around 2-3 weeks old
Kittens are:
Sam, 12 weeks old (one of a litter of 6...
Any advice would be appreciated.
Sam is 12 weeks old, I have had him and the other 5 in his litter since they were 3 weeks old. They were all feral so they were check out immediately, treated for worms, and then bottle fed till they were about 6 weeks old. At 7-8 weeks old I noticed one kitten...
I foster for a cat rescue and I specialize in neonatal kittens... I usually have a dozen or more kittens under 10 weeks and have never had any pass away unless there was a major underlying issue (4 newborns with birth defects and one 8 week old with a liver shunt.) However, this morning I lost...
I have recently started fostering a litter of kittens 4 days ago and they were estimated to be 6 weeks old. They weighed in right at a pound each. They were wormed and are being treated with topical antibiotics for conjunctivitis in their eyes ( almost back to healthy/normal now)
Anyways, when...
About 2 weeks ago I started working on trapping a mom and 4 kittens that are part of a feral colony that I have trapped some cats from before. It took me awhile, I finally got all 5 of them as of a few days ago. Mom is now spayed, vaccinated, ear tipped, and recovering (crated) in our home for a...
Hi, this is my first post here! We have 3 cats. This is going to be long but I want to make sure I get as many details in as possible so you guys can understand these cats and their backgrounds, since all were stray/feral.
Our 1st cat is Jack and was found by the dumpster behind our townhouse...
