Thread: Kitten with lack of coordination at 9 weeks

    Thank you for doing such a wonderful thing for these kittens.

    My heart breaks for the little girl. If I could afford to take in a special needs cat that would need lots of expenses and vet visits then I would but sadly I cannot. I wonder if there are any special needs babies that all you can really do for them is give TLC.

    CH babies, in my experience, seldom need much special equipment, vet visits, etc, except maybe with a more involved CH baby. Or you might try a tripod or a one-eyed kitty; I consider both disfigured rather than disabled. If you're interested, they're out there. It'd be GREAT to have more special critters families!!!

    I have two "special needs" guys (one blind and one deaf). I have no additional expenses for either of them. The biggest problem is the deaf guy has no "volume control" so he has no idea how loud he can meow (especially at 4AM ) But they are both love bugs a nd I have no regrets about either one.

    Her only special need at this time was for a lower litter box which I provided yesterday evening and she used right away. I also had to clean a corner of the room which she had used until then. I still need to look at the resources Queen S. sent me, but from what Laura has said, I think the only special thing she has to do for Amy is try make sure there is padding where she might fall.

    It was sad to see her this morning, sitting at the base of the climber and looking up at her brothers who were at the open (screened) window for the first time. But she loves her new bed and I gave her a long cuddle; she was content.
