17 is about the same number here that are sick. I'm loosing track while dashing around popping pills into little mouths, and liquid into others etc. One little black girl has turned the corner at last anyway, and has started eating again. She's very thin, and will need quite a bit of bulking up before she's adoptable. Madeline's kittens that I've been so worried about are not gasping as much today. I'm still giving them several drops of Clavamox, and can see a big improvement with just 3 doses. Not out of the woods, but better. Keep those prayers coming that I don't opt for that "bridge party" too soon! That's where I chain cinder blocks to my limbs, and jump off the local bridge. I have several friends who are willing to join me! and that things will keep improving for these little ones. Thank God Gracie and Gabriel were well protected long before this hit.
