I found a stray cat and two 3 week old kitten under my porch. The mother cat has rejected one of them. The cats are covered in fleas, I treated the mother and washed the kittens in Dawn and fleas combed them. I've been feeding the kittens formula and water through a oral syringe for a day.
One Kitten, Gizmo, is weak and his gums are a whitish. I've read about flea anemia. Yesterday, she was cold and weaker and she could barely keep herself up or her eyes fully open.
Today, She ate about 1-1/2 oz of formula and drank a good amount of water. she moved her bowels, her waste was solid and not bloody. She meows then drinks water but her breathing is labored after she moves around. Shes warmer but is sleeping most of the day.
I work at a pet store, is there any suggestions on what I should get or do?
I'm unable to make it to the vet today and I know its going to take my whole paycheck to help this kitten. I just need her to make it until I have afford either a vet visit or a surrendering fee.
I really just want this kitten to be make it. It sucks because all of the shelters and vets I've called can't do anything without money. It's a strain on them also. I hate that its an excuse but I really wish I could do more.
