I am pretty certain the litter I found's momma finally came back. I could tell she was not in good shape at all and something must have been going on with her which is why she abandoned the kittens. First off she was COVERED in fleas. I mean I have never seen anything like it. Poor thing. She was skin and bones and looked like she was on her last leg. I must have called a GA BILLION rescue groups and shelters not one place could help. I couldn't leave her there so I brought her inside to my basement bathroom. Gave her a flea bath and ripped everyone out with a tweezer. I was so sad I would kill her bc she looked awful.
I quickly called my vet and they were very nice and let me bring her in. She was only 4 lbs and looked no older then 5 months old. They told me she was about just under 2 years. Her mouth was WRETCHED and she had bad dental disease and missing a tooth! She was so pathetic looking. Even after fluids she didn't perk up. They told me in so many words that unless she's ur treasured pet that I may want to stop the bill where it was. I could live with myself without "knowing" so they took xrays of her body because her heart was muffled. She wound up having a mass on her heart and cancer in her brain. Poor little girl.
Would you believe I was crying like a baby over this little cat? She was so pathetic looking my heart was breaking. She meowed a faint meow and looked at me and crawled and hobbled over to me. Almost like she was saying "thank you". After 3 hours we finally made the choice to put her suffering at an end. I couldn't bare it she just looked like she was in so much pain. The doctors told me there couldn't have been anything I could have done to save her. She was just an ill, runty little cat. I am still very sad about it but everyone has been telling me I did what I could. It's just so unfair there are so many precious little critters out there with no one to care for them
