So I took the new baby to the vet today to get checked out and it turns out he's actually 4 months old (based on his teeth - he's getting in two teeth they don't get until 4 months). Ok, the age doesn't bother me. What does bother me is that he's only 2.9lbs and for his size (he's very long) and age, he should weigh much much more than that. The poor kid has almost no muscle. I knew he was scrawny, but I didn't realize it was quite this bad because I also thought he was much younger.
What makes me so mad is... he wasn't a stray where he didn't have access to food or something. Someone had a cat, that cat had a litter, the owner dropped the litter off at the shelter about a week or so ago. So someone actually owned him and didn't feed him! Man that makes me so mad!
I don't care if the person didn't want to keep the litter.... you still need to FEED them until you find them homes!! :censor::censor::censor:! Honestly, what is wrong with people!
Well... he'll be a chublette soon if my other cats are anything to judge by... but he shouldn't have had to go through this in the first place.
And people wonder why I prefer animals to most humans.
