7-20-07 Update #42 On Kittens Found In Dumpster

Goodness... no toes?! Did he think it was a birth defect of some kind?!



Poor Squeak, but she will get over it. She just needs to understand that you were trying to help out another kitty. She should be proud of you, not mad!

THANKS TO EVERYONE! The vet wasn't sure at this point. He was much smaller than the other one, so I don't know if maybe he was a runt. His little bottom didn't look normal. It almost looked as if it was closed up. I'm sure this was not the case, or he wouldn't have made it to the age he is. I am going to call tomorrow to check on them. They were going to get a bath tonight, as they had poop all over them. Tomorrow the tests start, and deworming. They ate a whole can of Fancy Feast! That was all I had, and I knew they were starving! Squeak is fine now, but she DID NOT like those little screamin' critters in her house! I definitely feel better about leaving them at a vet's office, rather than the Animal Center. At least I know they will be well cared for! I just don't know how someone can be so heartless!

I just got off the phone with the vet that took the kittens. They are both doing well. They have been cleaned, and wormed. She said they were eating like crazy! No tests for other things yet, but that will come soon. They are to keep me posted, so I will do the same with you guys! Thanks again!
