MA, I think what you are doing is wonderful!


I am not real far from you... and I would definetley snatch one up, but we just brought home a new furbaby a couple of days ago. I am not sure we have the room or the money for another.

I can ask around the base though and see if anyone is interested...

You are such a wonderful person! Thanks for the updates and pictures!!

*~*~*Lots of good vibes and prayers coming your way!!*~*~*

Lord, but they're adorable!
They're in the best hands possible, and I look forward to watching them grow over the next three months. C'mon east coasters! If y'all adopt them, then we can watch 'em grow forever!

They are now two weeks old, because of suckling issues, I have had to separate each one of them. They are still together, in that they can hear and smell each other, but they have their one sections now to stay in. I hated doing it, but it was necessary because they were sucking each other genitals. In amongst the comfort toys you should see the kittens-

MA...it is wonderful to see new pictures of your little foundlings. Are you still feeding Oliver every two hours? How long do you need to hand feed them? Knowing that you are there for them, fills my heart with joy.

Boy time is flying...by next week, if they are typical 3 week olds, they'll be walking decently and ready to begin playing a bit with each other.

How is Oliver?

Oliver is not doing well again.His lungs sound quite wet and he is restless and whining. He won't eat much, and I wish I could put them all together, but yesterday he had blood out of his rectum and it was determined because he was being the only kitten that was being sucked on by all the rest. He appears to have a tremedous will, so here's hoping he will pull through.

xocats- the kittens are bottle fed every four hours now. But they are good kittens and they will fuss when they are hungry and I will feed them. They also have a different cry when they are eliminating and now I know the difference between those two cries They are not up to a normal weight for kittens their age. Only one weighs close- Tarzan is 6 ounces.

Hissy, I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers, he does seem to have quite the will to live, and I think he will be a very special part of someone's life, if he makes it. I so want him to make it!

Darling Oliver...you sweet little angel, if you choose to live, you will have a loving home but if you find it to difficult to stay...you will always be in our hearts little one. Thank you again...MA

I am praying for you.

MA, I just want you to know how much I respect and admire you for working so hard to save these poor innocent little kitties! I'm sending vibes and saying prayers that they will all get healthy fast and get the wonderful, loving forever homes that they deserve. I said a special prayer for Oliver: Please God, help Oliver get nice and healthy and please send him a meowmy who will pamper him and give him the best life a kitty could ever want.

Dear MA, hugs to you as you fight for these tiny ones, especially little Oliver. I too will continue to pray for them and for you. God bless.
