Taylor has recovered

We had a bit of a scare recently when Taylor started crashing. I don’t know what it is, but when my bottle babies start to fade, everything I know just flies out of my head! If someone contacts me about a problem with a kitten, I can give advice without hesitation. But when it happens to one of mine? I totally panic!

Thank God for my friendship with Dusty Rainbolt- author of Kittens for Dummies I called her, and she told me to give Taylor some semi-warm coffee with karo syrup. I did, and about 10 minutes later, Taylor came out of her lethargic stage and her gums started to pink up.

Now, she is playing with her littermates, and being a normal kitten. I found out something interesting during this scare. One of the symptoms she had, is also a symptom of a kitten with a bad heart. I will keep my eye on her closely but for right now, the crisis has passed.

We have a huge nest of caterpillars high in our walnut tree. It has to be crammed full of caterpillars because it is so large. Take a look-
