Grayson has a strong mew.  He's learning to suckle fairly well.  Much better than the tabby kitten who died.  He's pooping an orange color.  I assume it's the formula.  It's not diarrhea, but it's like small pieces of rice.  He's eating every 2-3 hours.  And he cries every time I put him down. lol.  No, we didn't get much sleep.
 
I guess it's my turn to tell my troubles.  They're nothing like what everyone else is going through, but I'm just very depressed.  I just cannot handle rescue.  I thought I'd try again by just leafletting about the dogs, and here I am with a kitten I don't know what to do with.  I can't afford the money and don't have the time to care for my own crew.  I just broke up with my boyfriend because he doesn't care for my lack of time........ and I'm on vacation.
 
I agreed to TRANSPORT some cats to a vet for a spay neuter for a group and now they expect me to be responsible for getting the certificates, making the appointments, etc..... for about 15 cats and kittens!  And they want ME to do bios and pics of them all to post to find homes for.  AND the guy just called a few minutes ago and said they now have a NEW LITTER!
 
Animal Control won't go in and get Grayson's mother and the rest of his litter from the abandoned house, and the people I took him from haven't called me back AFTER I spent 2 days last week leafleting THEIR neighborhood about THEIR dogs who should have been in a fence to begin with.  Then I take the two kittens from them and now I don't get a call back from them to help get the others out of the abandoned house.
 
Then I find a dead turtle on the road when I went to get the mail.
 
I haven't sold my old house since I moved here this time last year, and every week it seems like something goes wrong there that costs me more money. Life just sucks sometimes.
 
I know I tell everyone to euthanize these tiny kittens, and I knew I should, but I just couldn't.  We had already left the neighborhood and finished leafletting, but something made me go back to the people's house who owned the dog who were NOT helping to leaflet to talk to them.  I don't know why I went back, but I guess it's for a reason, and I just couldn't euthanize the kittens.
 
And I hate to say this, but I wrapped up the baby kitten who died and just put him in the trash can.  One can only do so much, but I'm feeling pretty miserable right now.
 
I will send pics of Grayson when I can.  I sent out a plea and am hoping someone will take him into their foster program.  It's not really fair for me to keep him.
 
Grayson and I need all the prayers we can get right now.

Hooray for Grayson! I'm so relieved to see he's still with us this
morning! Did you guys get any sleep last night? Is he eating okay?
Any poop yet? Go, Grayson, Go! (That's Grayson's cheering section).
