While at the vet's today

[hissy]

Just finished the 2 a.m. feeding here are some pics-

They are doing okay. I have been told they will probably not survive, but hopefully I can prove that wrong. I made a special batch of formula tonight to increase their odds. They could use prayers, they had a pretty rough start in life-

 

[rosiemac]

Awwww bless them

Well they certainly have prayers and (((((healthy vibes))))) from me thats for sure!.

And i hope you can prove them wrong as well

 

[kittylover4ever]

If any of us can prove them wrong, MA can. Lots of good vibes headed their way............wish I could adopt them all from you!

 

[awliston]

I am sure you are doing all you can plus more! That is all the little guys can ask for! I'll be praying for them also!

I am sitting at my computer crying because of the injustice done to those sweet innocent angels & their Mother. Seeing their picture brings home the reality of how tiny & fragile they are

Thank God for caring humans like you.
All of you are in my prayers.

Keeping the little ones close to my heart, and sending lots of healthy vibes out to them!

MA, they're so tiny! I've never seen kittens so young, they are absolutely adorable! All of those babies are in my prayers. Please do keep us updated on their progress. With your knowledge and understanding, they have the best chances possible of survival.

Sending every possible good health vibe I can come up with from myself and the girls.

 

[chester&piper]

Look at how precious they are!

I'm sending lots of healthy vibes their way and keeping you all in my thoughts.

Awwww.

Hissy you are an angel. I can't wait to see more of them.

 

[hissy]

Ok it's back to the vet we go in a bit. One of the kittens isn't doing well and nothing I am doing on this end seems to be helping. I'll let you know what they find out if anything-

 

[laceydf]

I really hope the vet can help the little one!!! My thoughts are with you and the kitten, Mary Anne!

 

[carolcat]

Dear MA, hoping that the vet can solve the problem and sending hugs and prayers your way. Please keep us updated on how it is going.

 

[pat]

Me too, really hoping all will be well for all the remaining kittens.

Ok here's the skinny, all the cats are gaining weight but one. The runt of the litter a boy, black and white cow kitty with gray. His tummy was turning red (he has no hair on his tummy or neck yet) vet believes he is from another male and the other 4 are from a different tom. He was getting pushed to the bottom of the pile and they were peeing on him, he had urine scald. He was also dehydrated, he stopped eating last night. He got subcu fluids, and is on antibiotic. I also got some special kitty formula with added colostrom in it. His paw is swollen and mishapen, the vet believes the other kitties are sucking on it.

They are now back home and Oliver (the sickly one) is in the same container as the others, but separated and his companion is snugglekitty. The one gray girl is now 5 ounces! The others are at 4 or 4.5 Oliver is still at three- I am also mixing the formula with pedialyte instead of water for him. The vet said overall they look good, they are strong, vocal and active. So here's hoping- at this age almost anything can happen, but hopefully all will pull through and I will find wonderful homes for these babies- (that's a hint people!)

 

[kittylover4ever]

Ohhh MA, that is so great! How I wish I could take them all. Comeon you west coasters, someone I know wants to adopt these adorable babies!

The poor little one, having been peed on and it's little paw sucked....awwwwwwwww

 

[ilovecats]

They're beautiful, Mary Anne.

I can't belive how tiny they are.

I hope they all turn out alright. Prayers and vibes coming for the kittens and yourself~

(((((VIBES)))))


How are they today?

 

[rosiemac]

Oh bless them!, their getting there!

Keep up the good work MUM!!!

 

[pat]

Glad all is going well and I am so hoping Oliver pulls through...if it's possible, he will, thanks to the wonderful foster home he landed in.

 

[carolcat]

That's great news MA, keep up the good work and bless you for taking on these little kittys. I am sure you will be able to find good homes for all of them when the time comes. :-)
