Yesterday, a new friend gave me a kitten that had been dumped on the family's property. She gets tons of kittens from the strays that run around but she knew this baby boy was a house cat.
He is affection, but very sleepy and lethargic. When held, he curls up against me, purrs but also cries. Expecially when being gently petted along his sides and the left side of his face.
They found him on Monday and I was told he slept a lot.
He eats ok, not a lot. He also drinks fine. He's bone thin, though. Every bone can be felt.
He has a Dr. Apointment tomorrow afternoon but it just seems like his entire body hurts him.
They had treated him for fleas and I was terrified the medicine was making things worse so I gave him a bath in dawn soap to wash off the oily residue.
Then I began to think of HV and FeLuke... are these some of the symptoms for kittens?
His eyes and nose is clear. No gunk . His gums are very pale, though.
Any one more experienced in this. He is my very first kitten (my very first PET for that matter.)
