Someone brought a little 4-5 week old kitten to the vet clinic I work at the other day. This kitten was in horrible shape. The man told us that he found the kitten in his barn. Noticed it had no back legs or tail so he rushed it in. The vet asked the man if he was going to keep the kitten if we could save him. He said "well, if he's lived this long, why not." That's exactly what I wanted to hear! So we sewed him all back up and put him in a cage in the back.
This little buff colored kitten, that I've dubbed Trooper, is the happest lil guy ever! He just purrs when you love on him, meows real loud when he sees you, and is eating wonderfully. Unfortinatly, the man that brought this kitten in has failed to return to pick up the lil guy. I don't know what the vet will do if the man does not pick him up. I can't take him as my dogs would kill him. It would be amazingly hard to adopt out a kitten with a nearly $200 vet bill and such severe challenges.
I do have pics of Trooper. They are on my phone though. I go in tomorrow to clean cages and kennels. I'll take my camera along and get digital pics of him and post them.
UPDATE!!! I finally got my pics uploaded!!! Sorry it took forever! Last I've heard the kitten is still doing very well.
Lil Trooper in my pocket. His favorite place to be when he was at the clinic.
My lil buddy, Trooper.
The sutures. You can see he has no back legs or tail!
