Miss T and Miss E are looking for hunting opportunites. They are close friends and both have weaned their kittens. They love to play and hunt anything that moves. They were trapped outside with their kittens, but they seem perfectly content and well mannered indoors. But they miss the hunt. I suspect they started as indoor kitties and escaped when they went into heat.

They are about a year old, proven stellar hunters, tame but not clingy. You have to win them over if you want purrs. I recommend treats and a laser pointer. They've been fixed, vaccinated, treated for any parasites, and I'll chip them before they head out for a permanent home.

I'm willing to drive anywhere in southern Colorado, from Cortez to Trinidad to find them a good safe home. You must provide safe indoor heated accommodations as well as daily food and water. Bonus if you're interested in making friends with them and have some patience. They're good kitties!

These little beauties!

Today is National Feral Cat Day and also the day I say goodbye to my failing kitten. The combination is a meaningful one. Many people in my area believe it's just fine to have a breeding colony and constantly give away excess kittens, despite offers to help get the mom cats fixed. They believe that because people will take kittens from them, it's great that they have excess breeding going on. But this kitten came from one of those colonies, and no doubt is not the first kitten from there to suffer and die needlessly. It's a hardass policy, but I will not be helping anyone who doesn't also allow me to fix the mother cat(s). If you have kittens to give up, that mom needs to stop having kittens.

I haven't lost a kitten in quite a while, but this is another one who's really trying to go. She's lethargic this morning and severely dehydrated. Without the ability to nurse, that's not a surprise. So we're going to go with subq lactated ringers solution. I hate poking a little kitten with needles, and dehydrated ones are especially tricky. Sorry for the very blurry photo, she's not into selfies at the moment.

I often underestimate the age of a set of kittens I take into my care. They're usually sad and desperate creatures, underfed, cold, dehydrated, and thus less active and a little hunched up. After a few days of deluxe treatment, they're head up, ears forward, playful, demanding. In short, all new kittens. These at first sight I thought 10-12 days. That would make them two weeks old now. Based on dentition, facial shape, and behavior, I now think three weeks, maybe tiny bit less. This is typical of me.

Two of them are in great shape and I am confident of them. The third is unable to nurse properly and aspirates every time, even when I let her just chew on the bottle slowly. She's really struggling. Based on the updated age estimate and her special needs, I'm going to start offering slurry that she hopefully will be able to swallow instead of breathe.

This latest set of kittens have a terrible backstory, and not an uncommon one either. Bad enough that I'll put it in comments.

Punkin, Cinnamon, and Nutmeg are safely through their surgeries and ensconced with my favorite rescue, Cooper's Companions. Look for them to be up for adoption shortly! Mom (Missy) and her sister, Misty, are recovering from motherhood at my home still. They're thin and a bit undernourished as well as finishing up their lactation, which bears watching. Misty's babies are in foster also and will go to homes shortly.
