Related: About this forumI got him!!!! Owain is in the playpen!!!
I saw him mid day, yesterday, but last night there was no sign of him, and Skittish was wandering around the yard, looking as if she was searching for him. I didn't see her in the shelter, either.
I took a stroll and saw her at the water bowl. Then I started searching, really afraid I would find something horrible. BUT there he was, on the side of the house.
He put up a bit of a struggle, but as usual he settled right down. So he's in the playpen with some food and water. I'm heading out to see if I can get a small container of kitten milk. First thing tomorrow we will head to the vet. I want to give him a little time to settle in.
So, here I go, again!!!

(27,626 posts)I've been wiping his eyes, which already look better. But I'm sure the vet will give me drops.
He's out on the screened in porch because I don't want the kidcats traumatizing him. I'll be spending time out there and MIGHT move him to the spare bedroom, tonight. It's not supposed to get cold, but he's still pretty small. I'm guessing about 4 weeks old.

(27,626 posts)I'm hoping I can find him a home, real soon. Meanwhile he will get either flea combed or a bath. Probably combed. His claws are already pretty scary.
And, of course, lots of love from me.

(27,626 posts)Also lapping up kitten formula from a cut crystal ash tray. It was the shallowest 'dish' I could find. I'm still going to use the eye dropper, though, so I have an idea of how much food this fur ball is actually getting.
Tomorrow I will see if (s)he will eat a slurry.
