Madison, AL Kitten Needs Rehabilitation

[LittleOrangeKitten]

The Cat Hospital in Madison, AL has a 12-week old kitten that was hit by a car last week. Dr. Gandy has been watching her and working with her, but she is still unable to go to the bathroom without expression of the bladder and anus. Is there ANYONE out there who has experience rehabilitating kitties with broken pelvises and can take this baby and help her get well? If so, please contact me at [email protected]

Oh No poor wittle baby.. Yes I work with & have special needs babies.. However I think the baby is better for now with the Vet.. Also I am too far away.. I do sure hope the baby makes it & does get over the injuries.. Sending lots of Prayers..

Thanks so much - we're hoping for the best; but with a broken pelvis it takes so much time and work. We have lots of rescue groups here in the Huntsville/Madison area, but everyone is "full-up" right now. It's hard to accept we can't save them all; and that is what keeps us trying: determination.

Post the baby on the adoptables bbs at http://handicappedpet.net/helppets/ ; there are quite a few expressers out there, and hopefully somebody needs a new baby!

I emailed the contact on the first post to consider getting in touch with Tabby's Place in Ringoes, NJ....

Poor li'l thing. I have no experience w/this but w/the internet on our side, surely someone can step up and help. Fingers and paws crossed....

Thanks everyone for your posts and emails. Dr. Gandy is still working with this sweet baby and Karma is improving. I am going to pass along all the information posted and hopefully we will find someone able to take her and perform rehab. Karma has a wonderful personality and you can't tell anything is wrong with her from that aspect.

I will post additional updates as we get new information or we find someone to take her.

I am so excited to let everyone know Karma has improved beyond what was expected; it always astounds and inspires me how animals do that. Dr. Gandy just didn't have the heart to put her to sleep and kept working with her. As of this post she is up walking, standing on her hind feet with front feet batting at visitors, and just as sweet and talkative a kitten as you have seen. She is still working with pooping in the litter pan; but - she is pooping by herself!

Karma is an adorable medium- to long-haired tabby. She has this sweet face that just pulls people to her.

Thanks for all the posts and kitty prayers. Keep them up for this sweet baby.

Isn't it funny how they do that? You are trying the very last thing, knowing in your heart of hearts the odds are too great for them to make it, and they turn around and make an astounding recovery! I hope little Karma finds a wonderful furrever home that will absolutely adore her and spoil her to pieces!

Each time I am at The Cat Hospital Karma has further improved. She is now using the litter pan very well and pooping like she should. She is also healed to the point where her energy and acrobatic feline activities make it hard to believe what this precious little girl has been through. She talks up a storm, runs her motor very loudly, and loves to play with the clinic cats Inky and Pablo. It's not unusual to see her darting from room to room and sliding across the floor! Dr. Gandy has her up for adoption and she is going to make someone the perfect cat!
