Look what I found. :-) He's so cute

Oh, what a cutie. He/she looks like a little heartbreaker.

I have a sign in my house that says "My husband says one more cat and he's out of here.....See Ya!" My husband always says NO MORE...then another one comes along and he is just smitten.

oh how sweet!

Awww he is adorable, but rosethecopycat, I was thinking the same thing about how this precious little one doesn't look well.
His eyes look watery and his little bottom lip looks a little swollen.
Fox-Gal, have you brought him to a vet yet to get him checked out, as you don't want your other cats to get sick.
Please keep as updated.

This baby is adorable ... but he does have an upper respiratory infection! He has watery eyes and nasal discharge! That yellow looking stain around his nostrils is discharge! Also kittens eyes shouldn't be watery like that! You need to take him to your vet asap so he can get started on antibiotics, and be sure that he is eating and drinking so that he doesn't get dehydrated! GOOD LUCK and keep us posted!

Hi again!

I just realized that you have other cats in your home!!! You need to keep that kitten away from your other cats, until it has been cleared of it's Upper Respiratory Infection!!! Take from someone who learned the hard way!!!! My cats (17 including my rescues) just all got over being very ill with an URI!!! I had to give antibiotic and steroid shots around the clock for more than 2 weeks, and get the kittens subcutaneous fluids as well. It was a very long, and stressful time!

Good luck!

Thanks for the concern about the kitty and my other cats everyone. Yes I did take the Kitty to the Vet, he is on meds now. I knew he wasn't feeling well when I found him, so that was the first thing I did was call and make an app. with the vet. It had rained here for 4 days so i'm sure he was out in it and that didn't help him any.

I put the Kitten in the screen in room out back, for just that reason, I didn't want my cats to be exposed to anything.

Now the update on the other Kitty and the mommy. Good news and bad.
I did get the other Kitten tonight. Male, cute and a lot better shape then the other one. It's hard to belive that they came from the same mother. One is blonde skinny and the other gray tiger and big and fat. Mean little guy!!

The bad news the mother is dead. My husband found her in the back of the property. It looks like something attacked her. There was 3 other kitten dead too.
It really got to me, I can't figure it out. Why would some animal just kill and not feed. I could understand an animal being hungy and having to kill, even though I hate the thought of that, but to just kill. That gets to me worse.

He's a cutie! Glad you found the other kitten too. That's SoOo sad that the momma and other kitties are dead.

Somthing similar happend to me once. It was when I found my cat, Opie. I found him stuck between our fence and our neighbor behinde us' fence. My dad broke one of the fence boards so we could get him out. He had just been born too, because he was wet, had his umbilical cord on, and still had his eyes shut. Well, we took care of him and he's a big o' huge kitty now! The bad news is, that we found out that ALL of his brothers and sisters had died because the mother didn't take very good care of them. :*( Good thing we found Opie!

Thanks for the update! So glad you got the baby to the vet... GREAT JOB!!!

How horrible to find the mom and other 3 babies dead.... that must have been very hard for you ... I'm so sorry! Thank God you found her chubby brother though!

You know we need more pics too, please!

[rg_girlca]

Fox_gal, I am so glad that you were aware of the kitty being sick and got her to the vet quickly.
I am so sadden to hear about the momma and her other babies.

Glad you were able to capture her brother.
Now of course we need a picture of him also. Can't play favorites. LOL.
Good Job Fox_gal.
