Well......what can I say I work at a Vet Clinic

So today we had a client come in and she had found a newborn kitten. I mean like it had the umbilical cord still attached this morning. Well, since it was all alone and with no other kittens, we came to the realization that it was most likely abandoned by the mother. There can be many reasons for a mother cat to do this however in the case of this little one we believe it is because it's a screamer. O yes if there is a screamer in the litter (Wuss Puss) then the mother will abandon it for the protection of her other kittens (who don't need a predator alerted of where they are). So now with that said I am in possession of a screaming newborn that needs to be fed every hour or two. So I guess God granted me my wish to have another baby, just in a very peculiar way. :)I will get some pictures up in about a week or two (hoping we make it that long). It is real iffy for kittens until they are about 3-4 weeks old if they will survive, and even more so in the first 48-72 hours so wish us luck. Just what I need another animal. I believe this is my calling in life to care for those that can't care for themselves. I believe this is God's want of me. I am just to much of a softy I guess.

More later,
