I am glad to hear he is doing better. I will continue to pray for him to get back to normal and also for his sister. Bless you for caring for these wee ones. Hugs.

I'm so glad to hear that they are both doing better.
You said that Francis has neurological damage too? Was that something you knew before the neuter?
You're a wonderful foster mom!

Francis' nuerological damage was known before the nueter. It's hard to describe. He winks one eye funny A Lot, and sometimes shows less grace than a normal kitten (falling on his side instead of feet). He's just Not Quite Right. Oh, and he can't figure out the litter box.
awa..i hope all is well..and my prayers go to you and kitties.
Oh, poor little Jane! It sounds like this litter of kittens has a hard road ahead of them to be healthy cats.Originally Posted by eatrawfish

Sending more healthy vibes to Jane, James and Francis!
Just a quick question about Francis - do you know which anesthetic they used? I've heard Ketamine isn't too good with neurological symptoms. (Which is what they used on my cat yesterday.
)
Sara, I'm still sending vibes and prayers for James, Jane, Francis and the little black kitty.

Huh, I had not heard that, but I did tell the Vet that was what they used (and another... Iflurine? something like that). The thing is, Francis came through the nueter brilliaintly. It was James, who showed no prior symptoms of any nuerological problems, who started acting brain damaged.Originally Posted by kluchetta

Unfortunately the colony they came from was not managed or healthy before these guys got trapped. I doubt any of them would have made it much longer on their own as it was.
Well, I think it's awesome how you're doing with them, and they are SO sweet looking.

Oh, they are all sweeties. If you know anyone in my area who wants some slightly-off kittens, one with litter box issues, send them my way.
Well, uh, guess you've got a bit of a challenge there...
