💕 Othello update 💕

This week we headed out to West Dakota Veterinary Clinic to see the incredible Dr Janke!! Othello has a birth defect called Carpal laxity, where his front legs turn in. His right leg is significantly more bent than the other, this could be due to multiple factors such as a fall or injury, improper nutrition...the good news is Othello gets to keep his leg, unless somewhere down the road it starts to cause him issues. It doesn't slow him down too much now, or show any signs of discomfort. He isn't much for jumping or climbing but is still playful and very affectionate. The staff at the clinic couldn't believe when they seen his giant 7 toed back paws, he's a very unique polydactyl!! Othello would do best in a home without toddlers, he is ok with mellow cats but doesn't care for crazy playful kittens, and he is getting more comfortable with dogs.

Over the weekend we were contacted about a litter of tiny sick kittens in a backyard that a feral momma wasn't taking care of very well, they also didn't have any shelter out in the cold rain. We went over and were able to scoop them right up, their eyes were completely crusted shut, they have respiratory infections they are on meds for and already doing so much better. With the help of a neighbor that momma is comfortable with we were able to catch her the following day, and also trap a kitten from her last litter. Momma is barely a year old herself and has no real interest in her babies, despite multiple attempts, she likely knew they were sick and couldn't care for them. They are being bottle fed and getting started eating on their own. Momma and the older kitten will be fixed and then ready for a working/farm home. The babies won't be ready for several weeks when they are old enough to start vetting. If you'd like to donate towards their care it is always greatly appreciated ❤️‍🩹

CCAR alumni Margie had a big day today! First one of her favorite kiddos popped in to say hi, and to play with her🤣. Then she got recruited for pictures and accepting a donation from Heather Funk for pumpkin sales!!! We appreciate Heather and all of her helpers for doing this fundraiser for us every year!

Finley and Koi have now been spayed and neutered! They are fully vetted and ready for homes! They are good other cats and dogs. They can be shy initially but as soon as they warm up, they are both sweet cats. They do not need to stay together but would both do best in a home with another friendly pet to play with. They are 5 months old, so they still have a lot of playful kitten energy!

Introducing Othello: he was found yesterday on a jobsite with a broken leg that has healed crooked. We have a vet appointment scheduled for him to see what his options are, if the leg will need to be amputated. He is an otherwise healthy, active kitten, with back polydactyl feet he likes to stand up on to give his front leg a break, he's quite the character 💙

Please send this sweet little guy some positive vibes and watch for an upcoming donation post when we know more 🙏
