Scott 911

About a week ago Scott rescues a kitten from 2 mangy dogs looking for a meal. This kitten was about 3 weeks old if that and he put the kitten in the storage area where the rest of the cats were being taken care of at the MAF base. On Saturday he went down to the bast to see how this kitten was doing and saw that it had been injured by the gate and was lost and alone. We now have this lost and forlorn kitten in our house while we try ...while Scott tries to nurse it back to health. It is really young and should be with its mother so as a result seems to only be able to sleep tucked under a chin or curled by the side of a warm human being. The first night..it was me, last night it was Scott's turn. I am all for cute kittens...BUT, I like my sleep. Scott, well he believes that when you find a broken piece of creation if at all possible you are to make it right, people and animals...land and water...fix it if you can. Sooooooo...we are trying to fix this broken piece of creation even if it cries all the time.

You do have a very compassionate husband - not many jewels like that in our jaded world. Do you use some kind of bottle for feedings? I recall loaning a glass dolly bottle that likely held 2 oz. max. when we had kittens that needed extra help - that was on the farm and eons ago. Warm memories. LEW
