Cagney fell unexpectedly ill in the middle of the night. She is now in strict isolation where they are giving her fluids and supportive care. Her fever this morning at 9:30 was 106.3! There was no indication that she felt bad- she just suddenly plummeted down. She stopped eating today- they are force feeding her and say her appetite is poor.
The other kittens “seem” fine- even Mannix and Kojak who is only dribbling stool now from time to time instead of constantly. To say my stress meter is pegged today is putting it mildly. We are such poor substitutes for the queens. I can only do the best I can with what I have- and hope God doesn’t call any of these babies home to Him.
Nothing is ever as good as your mother.
Hang in there. You’ve given her as good a foundation as you can plus medical treatment. The rest is up to her little self.
I’m praying.

You do excellent work. If what you are doing doesn’t help a cat, nothing will – but I fully expect Cagney to recover. But it’s frustrating not knowing what’s wrong, isn’t it?
