Hi all,
I googled this site and it looks like I can meet all the right cat people here !
A brief story, please bear with me ...
I am this kind of people all the injured/orphaned/hurt/lonely animals seems to go to, I bet most of you here know what I mean. So this morning, a friend called saying that she found these 4 newborn kittens and she was bringing them to me... ok ! I already have a cat loving boxer dog, an adopted 5 year old fat cat, and a rescued and now missing for 26 days cat.And my 9 year old daughter. So I said OK ! Bring them in. They are 4 beautiful kittens, no idea what happened to mom. I am feeding them milk replacement, and they seem to be around 8 to 10 days old, eyes opened except for one. Two of them have their genitals swollen, and one of them is bleeding, and it's not looking good. I will take them to the vet tomorrow morning, no question. However, I will also be moving on Sept 14th , so you have an idea how my life/home looks like now. This will be my first night feeding them, and I know how it goes. So, I came here to hear some insights about my quest to save these 4 lives, and any , ANY ! suggestions you might have. I do have a friend who is willing to help, but she is so scared of feeding the little ones... I will take pics tomorrow and post them, and maybe I can get their weighs in the vet, will post that too.
Sorry about the long post, I just had to vent and look for support !
Thanks to all !!!
