approx. 2 mths old, now at 6 mths). He NEGATIVE for FIV (which
That is great news, that everything is negative.
Is he drinking normally? Is he dehydrated? If he is not dehydratedI
would not see any need for fluids (but I'm not a vet, this is not to be
construed as veterinary advice, yadda yadda)

I have never seen him drink water, so I am not sure. But he's been urinating a
lot- of course that could be from the fluids. He was dehydrated on Monday, but
he bounced back so much after the shot of Penicillin and one bought of subcu
fluids- it was really remarkable. And of course, the vet

Okay, that helps a lot. Yeah, you could tell he felt pretty crappy on Monday
when he saw the vet. I knew that, the techs knew that, the vet knew that, the
cat knew that! But he really rallied so much the very next day and he no

Another success! My last barn kitten- the only one still holding out,
finally crossed over- as I like to say! SHE PURRED! We've hit all the other
milestones: no longer freaking out and hissing and swatting at me when I reach

Congrads! Once they figure out that its safe and that they'll get all those
goodies, these guys make the most wonderful pets! Rescues are the
best!

They are fun, aren't they?:)

One of our foster parents sent this pictureshe's found two litters of
kittens we've adopted out (she's done the fostering) - her neighborhood is

Anyway this is Sweet Pea..the former feral kitten, having fun with wrapping
paper:)
