Another kitten.. Update 04/23/07 with pics! Post 22

[kt_luvs_kitties]

My aunt found this kitten outside her house. The mother moved the rest before I could get to them. I am going to start my search again tomorrow. I am now baby bottle feeding this little prince *rolling eyes* But I must admit, he is kinda cute! And just about as spoiled as he can be already! Last thing i needed on my plate right now. But I guess when I look into his eyes, all I can think of is "suck it up and do the right thing". Anyone want a baby kitten?

Pictures to prove his cuteness below!

It has been a long day, but after 10 minutes of cuddles, I can manage a smirk...

Oh, I hope you can get the mom....or get her baby back to her! If you can get them all, they can all be together! And nursing.

This widdle guy is TOO CUTE! Where was the warning? :D

[krazyaboutkatz]

He or she sure is a cutie pie. Good luck.:)

[kt_luvs_kitties]

The mother is a feral. i asked my mother if I could use the trap to get her and spay her. The other babies my aunt saw, they got rained on and the wind was up to 70+ MPH yesterday. I wanted my mother to take them all yesterday, but she didn't. She only took this one. She said he looked the "healthiest". :mad: Dont get me started on this situation, I am still fuming over the whole thing, and how it happened. BUT atleast this little fella is safe, and I pray I can find where they were hidden. I dont want them to end up street cats like their mother.

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Forgot to add.. He has a vet appointment tomorrow at 4:00 Pm. I think he has a slight URI. We will see.

[doolittleky]

He is a cutie! Don't fall in love with him! LOL

[Lizzie]

It looks like you have taken on a more than full time job, and unpaid at that. How on earth are you coping? Thank you for taking care of this little one, he's very sweet. Do you have any contacts to use in order to find all these rescues homes?

[orangemm]

OMG, he is adorable! What a little darling. Just look at that little mouth (probably yelling for milk)!!!

You are a saint for rescuing him.

[Randi]

Aww, what a little cutie!!! :p From now on he'll think of you as his mom, so you CAN'T let him go. ;) And yes, he does seem healthy and active. :D

I hope you find the mom and the other babies, and then a very loving home for them all - that is if you can't keep them. I would love to see him grow up here on PT!

Best of luck, and thanks for all that you do! :)

[Reachoutrescue]

Katie, he is just adorable! Great save. I hope you can find a way to get mom. Until then, he is in great hands with you.

[Laura's Babies]

I wished I lived close to you! I would take him for the week before I have to go back to work! He is so adoreable and that one with his mouth open like he is screaming "PICK ME UP!" is priceless!

[lvpets2002]

;) Awee such a cutie snuggle poo.. This baby is so cute..

how little the kitten is - but check out those claws! kt_loves_kitties, I hope you find kitten's mother and siblings. I hate to think of mother outside meowing for the kitten and being unable to find him.

[kb2yjx]

You did a wonderful thing!! St. Francis smiles....Hope you can rescue the whole family, esp the Mom!!!

[catmandu]

I Hope That You Are Near A Big Et Food Store So You Can Pick Up Food For That Tiny Ebony Baby, I Have Found Baby Kitten Food From Royal Canin To Be Excellent.
Bless You For Taking That Little Smidgen In And Its Nice To See You Too.
The Found Cats All Meeeow For You.

[Medusa]

He's a cutie alright. Mom is probably really worried, though, wondering where he is. And he's probably missing her, too. Good save!

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Thank you everyone for your nice comments. Baby boy checked out well by the vets. No worms believe it or not. Healthy other than a slight URI. He is on Amoxi 2 x daily until gone. He weighs in at a whopping 5 ounces. Very sweet, LOVES his baby food, A/D prescription food and of course, his bottle. He gets the bottle more than anything. Slow going.

He has had 2 poops. One perfect and today a messy one. Needed a butt bath. I must say he was HIGHLY insulted after the fecal. lol Poor little guy.

Anyways, still cant find momma or the other babies. She took them and hide out well. I just pray that they are ok, whereever they are. I am still going to go daily and look. Once they get old enough to run, catching them is close to impossible. That area is heavily wooded and has cars racing past all the time.

Lizzie, still no contacts. No prespective offers for adoption. I am currently at 15 cats. (including my own). It is a full time job. But once it is over I will miss each of them so much. My heart breaks just thinking of it....
Will update will more pictures tomorrow. :D

[nancys]

He is so cute - it would be too easy to get attached. It looks like he has blue eyes - are they really that color? Have you found the mama cat & other babies yet? :)

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Wanted to update that he is now getting his own little teefers! He is walking, and even trying to play. He only gets 2 bottles a day now, eating his wellness canned food through a dropper, and LOVES to be cuddled and get his tum tum kissed.
Seems like he grows so much over night! I will post another update with pictures soon!

[Rie Rie]

He is absolutely adorable and to top it off, he likes to cuddle, I would be in heaven.

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Still looking for momma and babies, with no luck. I am starting to think that it scared her away for good... But Baby is doing great, growing like a weed. Eats like a pig, regular in his movements, mouthy! I just love this little guy! He is such a character, and I look forward to showing him off *smirk*...

Here are the pictures! First Pre bath, and then post bath!

Just got done playing with my moms feet:

We hope you will come back soon for updates!

[Taz_Zoee]

OMG!!! You ARE keeping this one, right?? I can't get over those blue eyes, with the black fur, it is amazing!!! Have you named him?

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Who knows?? I hope that my mother decides to keep him, but I dont know. I wont brush off the idea, but no promises yet :p

His name is between:
Dudley
Dewey
Cole

I have not decided ;) You know, once they are named, they are considered yours to keep :rolleyes: :eek: :p

[Reachoutrescue]

He is so cute. I like the name Cole. Good job on him, Katie. He is so adorably sweet!!

[Taz_Zoee]

I have not decided ;) You know, once they are named, they are considered yours to keep :rolleyes: :eek: :p

Yes, I know. That's why I asked! :p
I like the name Cole too, I think it fits him perfectly. :D

[Scooter's Mom]

Who knows?? I hope that my mother decides to keep him, but I dont know. I wont brush off the idea, but no promises yet :p

His name is between:
Dudley
Dewey
Cole

I have not decided ;) You know, once they are named, they are considered yours to keep :rolleyes: :eek: :p

Uhoh, you shouldn't have ever named Amos, Andy, Abigail, et al... lol
You're gonna be stuck with a house full. :)

This baby is adorable!

[Babyboonie]

ahhhhh....keep him! He looks like he loves you soooo much!!

No seriously, you are doing a great job, I admire you. It's certainly not easy with a tiny tiny kitty. My tigger (ginger and white one) was abadoned in some woods and thankfully my hubby found him. Long story short, after a few illnesses and a couple of touch and go situtations he is now fighting fit....as you can see from my signature!

[momcat]

Now that sure is one adorable little heart thief, he sure stole mine! How sad that there's no sign of mommycat, I hope mommycat and his fursibs are somewhere safe. Has the baby been looking for his mommy?

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Thank you all for the encouraging comments :D

Cindy, nice try :p

Momcat, he was only about 3 weeks old when he came here, so No not too much. He cried at first, but we got him a big poodle slipper and a warm rice sock inside, and I think that he felt more comforted. He still tries to nurse my nose, mouth, fingers, toes, ears and clothes! lol But I think he probably has forgotten or pushed that back in his memory by now. :confused: He sure acts happy!

[Catty1]

COLE? What a GREAT name for a black cat!

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c11/Candace_1956/Cole/d4689e8b.jpg

Hi, little brother!

Big Bro Cole

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Candace, I knew that someone on PT had a black Cole, but I did not know it was you! How funny! I think he is going to be a black/smokey grey kitty once he grows a bit. He has slight tabby grey prints on his belly! If he looks only HALF as handsome as your Cole once he gets bigger, I would be estatic! :D

Ps- I am thinking of spelling it Kole though???

[Catty1]

How about the German "Kohl"? Like the black 'coal' pencils used for eyeliner.

An exotic version of the original!

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Oh! I really like that! That is a little less girlie, :p

But I cant tell anyone on here his official name yet (our little secret), seems people always want you to fail at fostering on PT :D lol

[krazyaboutkatz]

He sure is adorable.:) If you do end up spelling his name Kohl then it would remind me of the store Kohl's. I don't know if you have any of them in your area or not but they're still fairly new in CA.:)
