I Want To Bring Her Inside

**lizbud** · 02-14-2011, 05:37 PM

Baby Kitty is not feeling well.

She seems to be all stuffed up and
has not been eating for the last couple of days. She did drink some water
and when she tried to eat, she wound up spitting it back out.

This was always my greatest fear with bringing her inside before she was
more tame & would let me touch her. Maybe I should have left her in the garage
until she trusted me more. I have been so upset all morning just
worrying about her.Maybe being inside stressed her out more than I imagined
it would.

She seemed to be doing alright up until a few days ago.

I see strays, that I feed, survive for years outside and they don't seem
to get sick, why her?

I hope I didn't do the wrong thing by trying to help
make her life more comfortable.

Could be a simple URI. Can you get her into a carrier and to the vet?

Prayers that some antibiotics will fix her up soon...maybe a long-term injection so you don't have to pill her.

Prayers for little Baby.

I hope she will be over this soon and back to good health and appetite.

I am so glad you have rescued her and brought her inside from all that cold and snow. Thank you so much.

I still think that you did the right thing by bringing her inside. Hopefully she'll get over this soon and I agree that she may need to see a vet. If she can't smell her food then she won't want to eat. I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers.

Liz, any update?

I am sad to say that I have made a appt for Baby Kitty to be PTS
tomorrow.

I had the appt set for today, but I couldn't do it and
cancelled it at the last minute. Although the URI seemed to be getting
better for awhile, she still will not or cannot eat any food and yesterday
and today, could not even drink any water.

I thought I was doing the right thing for Baby by bringing her inside, but
now I'm not so sure. She was perfectly healthy before & only became sick
after she came inside. I feel so sick at heart right now. I only wanted the
very best for Baby Kitty & I hate that she is so very sick. I have failed her.
I only hope when she gets to the RB, she will understand that I love her
and only wanted to make her life better, not worse.
