Do you have a small syringe that you could use to squirt some water into his mouth? Any canned cat food - smear it on his lips and he should lick it off.

He ate!! I had to stick the dropper in his mouth the first time, but after that, he was licking from it!! Thank god, lol. He keeps sneezing and a lot of mucus came out the first few times and now he looks like his nose is reaching the empty mark. Happy happy happy, lol.

Great first aid and food! Yay!
I'm glad you can get him to see the vet tomorrow.
That person that was going to toss him - ugh! A cute kitten gets sick and it's not worth anything?
Please keep us posted on this little guy! Do you have a name for him?

The name bounced back and forth for a while. It started out as Edward. He just looks like an Edward (and anyone who has read Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series, they'll understand!) and it seemed to suit him. Then it changed to Finnigan, but it's back to Edward. I think he shall remain an Edward forever now, lol.
Yes, he's going to the vet tomorrow. I want an age estimate and something for his sickness. Any estimates on how much a check up and antibiotics will be?

I don't know what the cost will be...I doubt the vet will want to give him any vaccinations until he is well again.
You might want to call ahead and find out...and see if they can do a short payment plan if necessary.
My guess - the antibiotics will be cheaper than the checkup, but it'll be good to have him all checked over!
If he's ginger tabby, he could be "Ed the Red"!

Weeee! That is awesome that he's eating!!! You said the symptoms in your first post and my heart sank. I had tried to rescue a kitty with similar symptoms, but she was a goner. Even the vet said so. And she was.But there's a HUGE difference. She couldn't even get anything down. Your is! That means he can take medicine. With love and patience he'll be better in no time.
A check up and antibiotics should be fairly inexpensive.

Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

My Tabitha was just at the vet this weekend. She got a general visit (no bloodwork) and antibiotics. It was close to $60.00.
Good luck with Edward! He sounds like a cutie.... and a fighter!
