More on the kitten
Today we took the kitten to the vet for a check-up. She's a pretty sick kitten - she's anemic and underweight, and her eyes are infected and may end up in blindness. She got an iron shot, an antibiotic shot and some flea medication. Now I'm to keep her inside and feed her every 3/4 hours with a food syringe, wipe her bottom after eating to stimulate going to the bathroom, and put drops in her eyes three times a day. I'm hoping that if she gets well soon, the vet people might take her then to find a home for her. Hope I can see well enough to do all the stuff I'm supposed to!

How's the little sweetie doing now?
She's getting better! We took her to the vet again yesterday and her eyes are open now and she's eating more. We have another appointment on Saturday. We asked about them taking her for adoption if she gets all well, and they said they would think about it, so that's hopeful. She's so sweet - she purrs now when I pick her up and wash her little face :) Very stressful though.
So glad she's doing better!
Thanks, Katherine.
