This is just a taaaad bit late, but anywho, here's the story!
Well you guys know how it is, see a skinny stray kitty and you just HAVE to help it. Well my skinny stray wasn't a stray-she was semi feral and preggers! Eeep! So I brought her in, settled her down in a larg dog kennel to have her kittens ans socilize her and the crew. She decided that she was not going to eat or drink, so I force fed her some wet, that went ok for a coulpe days-she readily ate it. After a couple days, she just would not eat the food, no matter how many times I put it in her mouth, she would spit it back out. Took her to the vets, her temp was high, but he said to wait till the end of the week, that she migh snap out of it and start eating. End of the week and still she wouldn't eat. Gave birth the day before we went to the vet. Brought her right back to the vet and her temp had went down, he gave us some anitboitic and vitamins and checked out all of the kittens, he said they were as healthy as can be. He also gave us some Hills c/d, and said that cat's can't help but eat that stuff.
Brought her home, and that night she ate! I was so happy, cause it really worried me that she had newborn kittens and wasn't eating.
Now my babies are 4 weeks and two days old. I know somewhere on here last week I said they were 4 weeks-I had mis-counted!
Here are their pics, starting with them at a day old! There are 4 kittnes, two tabby and white (male and female), two all tabby (male and female). And yes, we plan on getting each and every one of them S/N.
More pics coming...
