    Kim, I would never giggle or snicker or laugh at such outright failure on behalf of Flutter! But call me crazy....I see quite distinctly the initials "K" "I" and "M" in the striping on Flutters forehead! Especially in the picture...anyone else see it...or am I crazy? She is utterly adorable, and me thinks EVERYONE on PT should have a special needs kitty...so maybe I'd have fewer.

    You are crazy! Whats crazier is I had to go straight to the pictures, close my left eye and lean my head to see it too! Then I ran to her cage... in person there's no way to see it! You nut!

    Right now she is climbing all over me meowing her head off.I know she's hungry - she didn't touch a drop of food last night. I put out wet this morning and she didn't even sniff it. She's skin and bones. I guess I'm running to Petco for a little of everything until she eats something!

    Ok... at least her food's being eaten. By Pouncer.

    OH I am totally in LOVE!!!! What a doll baby. She is just so precious. I can see how you failed....I would have too. I do have to say that I agree with Jan...everyone should have a special needs baby...they just tug at your heartstrings. I can not imagine my life without Gracie or Gabe.

    I would keep her...afterall you do need to catch up with the rest of us.

    Consider adopting a special needs pet, they deserve a chance too!

    Thanks everyone for your wonderful replies! I need people to talk me out of this now!

    I just heard the results of the X ray from the vet. I hate people. Vet determined that the kittens were all "intentially mutillated". It just makes me want to cry.

    I'm not so sure I'd go by one vet's assumption. I have a pair of cats here that belonged to my (thankfully X-neighbor). Lana's uncle let his cat keep reproducing, and then let his teenage (at the time) neice pick and choose the kittens she wanted. I was getting blue in the face trying to get through to her, and her family how important spay/neutering etc. was...but to no avail. So I went to step #2 and just made the kittens go *POOF* one by one. Impy was my first with half a hind leg, which ended up being amputated at the hip due to him being a rambunctious kitten, and outside at the time. Gabriel, and his sister Nicki were from another litter born to the same mom cat. Gabe has stumps, and Nicki half a hind leg...all were born that way. Either the umbilical cord cut off the blood supply, or the mom cat chewed the legs off as she was birthing the kittens. It happens. And Skippy is also missing a portion of his leg, so it's not so uncommon. I'm amazed that you couldn't make out the initials on Flutter's head! Look at how many others saw them...time for an eye exam for you Kim! And a head exam if you think she's leaving your house! ~giggle~ snort~ chuckle!!!

    Oh! I'm so sorry to hear that Flutter and her sister might have been intentionally hurt.

    My friend Val rushed a newborn kitten to the vet when it's inexperienced mom chewed off one of it's legs. The vet started to accuse Val of intentionally hurting the kitten when the other volunteers came to her defense. Unfortunately, it happens with over-enthusiastic cleaning by an inexperienced mom.

    Whatever the cause, Flutter and her sister should have wonderful lives from here on out.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
