Thanks all, I was far more upset than I thought I would be and that poor little thing. I hope he wasn't suffering too much.

They think it could be distemper, he didn't have much of a chance. At least he wasn't in a colony in the middle of a storm.

I'm so sorry. That sweet kitten was so fortunate to have you caring for him, he didn't die unloved. RIP little Pablo, you were a brave, sweet little soldier!

I'm so sorry for your loss.  It's never easy losing such a sweet baby.   He was so lucky to have you in his short little life.  Hopefully the other one will make it.

Reading this thread made me very sad.  Life on the "streets"  is no place for any cat, let alone, a young mother and her kittens.  Thank goodness they found their way to you.  The position we humans continue to put animals in is obscene.

Sorry I should have been clearer. She didn't reach out and sniff, just smelt.

She's slightly more used to people being around because the person who found her feeds her colony,she was born there.

I spoke to the vet and if I can't clean her by Saturday she'll have to go in and be sedated.


She's tried out the sofa, windowsill, and this morning was sitting by the kittens. She's still terrified but I think she's twigged that as frightening as the situation is, we're not going to hurt her.

I know, born on the street, having her own litter, practically eviscerated by a dog and hours in surgery is a lot to deal with in 6-7 months.
Usually don't force urself on her and just try saying in a calming pleasant voice "here kitty kitty", eventually she will realise you r friendly and trying to help out and will appreciate it especially if her kittens aren't afraid of u n playing with u

Lolita's doing well, today she was playing with the scratching post and a toy, I've not seen her play with a toy before. She's starting to remember she's a kitten herself.

Unfortunately when I went in the room yesterday morning Pia was dead. We had hoped that she'd survive but her little body just couldn't deal with the infection.

The poor kittens barely made six weeks.

Now we have to concentrate on Loli. She's not too scared of trousers anymore.

Thanks. We're lucky that the weather is generally warm and sunny here, plus with so many volunteers and even the local council caring for them they don't do too badly, but it's never enough.

Thanks, that makes me feel much better.

Someone is interested in fostering/adopting Lolita, they wanted all three originally. The only thing is they have a lot of cats, so I'm currently seeing how she is with others. Hopefully as she grew up in a colony she'll be OK with others so she can have a forever home.

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Pia.  She was such a lucky girl to have had you in her life, if only for a short period of time.

I'm so sorry to hear this @Pegleg  Poor little kittens. Unfortunately it's not uncommon for whole litters of feral born kittens to die young like this.

I hope Lolita recovers and goes on to find a loving forever home. I'm glad those little kittens got to spend their lives being loved and protected. They have you to thank for that.
