Distemper Kitties Update

I am smiling as I now report that for the first time since the others have passed away, the four survivors are now eating on their own! The only thing I can get them to eat is organic baby food and I follow up their food with fluids when necessary and their antibiotics. When they use the litter pan, I scoop it right away. If they vomit, I bleach it right out. I am mopping the floors daily, cleaning the litter pans three times a week and just loving on these babies as much as I can.

When I think of all they have been through, the poisoning, the exposure to distemper- it is a miracle they are still in this world. Now my next miracle (God willing) is to pay down my vet bill so my vet doesn’t take a contract out on my life! LOL

I am just so thrilled to see ALL of them eating now- this is day three of the exposure- two more days to go then three weeks of beefing them up with better nutrition and they will be on their way to neuters and a better life-

I am smiling, but I remain cautiously optimistic because I know this opportunistic disease is ruthless and we aren’t out of the woods yet, but perhaps, we are in a clearing?
