Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / August 2004Purrs for a tiny abandoned kitten
If there are any nurturing purrs to spare, can you send some for a tiny kitten who was found on the street yesterday by a friend's children who live in Belgium? It's a little black & white baby, and was alone on the street. She has been to the vet with the kitten and they think it is no more than 2 days old. The mother was nowhere to be seen although they did search for her. She is hand-rearing him, feeding every 3 hours, keeping him warm and helping him poop and pee (which he has done). Her daughters have named him Figaro and her two other cats (3 month old kittens) are terrified of him! They are so fragile when they are young, so any life-giving purrs which you can send over to him will be very welcome. I've sent her some advice too, and also a number of good orphan kitten websites which she's looking at. Many thanks - Deb.

Our best cat when I was growing up was a tuxedo tomcat with six toes on his front feet, names Mittens. Our dashcund found Mittens and his siblings, eyes still shut, in a gunny sack in the foothills, but Mittens was the only one alive when we happened along. Silly Mittens thought he was a dog for the first year of his life and slept with his step-pappa, Bobo, the d*g. Even when he figured out he was a cat he continued to nurse on Bo all his life. Like a lot of daschunds, Bo didn't know he was a little d*g, and was the alpha d*g of our three d*gs - Mittens ranked number 2, and they teamed up to beat up the others when they acted uppidy.

I got my little Rex when he was just a tad and had to go thru all the feeding with a little bottle, making him go to the bathroom, etc. And that in itself was kind of a shock to my system. I never had any children (human, that is) and never a pet that young. I thought they would at least automatically know how to urinate, etc, but the vet informed me otherwise what I was in for! What fun. I also didn't sleep one nite straight thru for several weeks. I hope your friend has a good support system at home. She'll need it!! But in my case at least, it was worth it!

Sounds like he has a good chance, given how well cared-for he is. And I agree with OJ - with all the handling and bonding with humans, he'll be very much a people-cat once he's older. Many purrs for the baby kitten!

Many purrs for the tiny but well cared for Figaro. Many thanks to each one of you for your purrs and thoughts for this little one - I know that several of you know how hard it is hand-rearing baby kittens. My friend is feeding him every 3 hours and has got hold of proper kitten milk formula, so he has the best chance - she is a very kind and caring person so he won't be lacking in nurturing :-) Fortunately she also works from home - she's an artist, like me - so is available all day - and all night! Will keep you updated as to how he gets on. Purrs to all Deb.

He was 9 when we got Zac, I put Zac down in the doorway as I really bought him for my son who had just lost his, he ran across the room and sat between the front legs of this big black labradour looking very proud of himself and Ralph fell in love forever, I must tell their love story on Flippy's page sometime sorry to go on but sometimes you cant help it Cheers Jean.P. >Ginger-lyn, Hi, I've just read your story about the foil balls on Flippy's >daily story, all my cats love their foil balls but Zac RB always brought [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] >sometime > sorry to go on but sometimes you cant help it Cheers Jean.P. lol Jean -- I know what you mean. I wonder how many words we've posted on here about our cats? Kazillions, I'd bet! Zac sounds like he was a trip. Aren't they funny, especially with those foil balls?

Sam Hello all - Figaro is still doing OK, but had a bout of diarrhoea yesterday, so my friend took him back to the vet who gave some vitamins and rehydration, and she said by the late evening he was doing much better, really seeking food and moving around his nest. She said he is also a she - so has been renamed Babaneeni which was one of her daughter's nicknames when she was a baby! Thanks again for all the purrs, I am sure they are helping!! Deb.
