Last week I came across a very well pregnant cat that was dumped out by my country home. I live about an hour drive from a vet, really all depends on the road conditions on the time. This month we've had a lot of rain so the dirt roads are very muddy and hard to navigate through.
Ok this cat gave birth a few nights ago and I notice that 2 of four kittens have deformed feet and one other has a rear that isnt developed so I think it will die soon since it can not poop(ive tried to get it to go). The Two deformed kittens have really no bone development in the feet and the leg is bent in ward.
The Mother her self was very little so growth room for the kittens must have been limited. The mom is a manx mix I believe since she has no tail. She was in a poor conditino but has gained weight while being with me. My vet told me he couldnt help me at all until the kittens grow up some(deformed legs), the other he said he cant help either. I have the money to have sugery on the kittens when they get older to correct or have the leg removed. I just cant believe the people left her to die. I was lucky to find her before a wild dog or wild cat found her.
