Izzy & Macamoe

Macamoe has come around. She will hang out with Izzy now. But still doesn't want to eat at the same time as Izzy. We have had a rough couple days with Izzy. On Friday we took her to the vet for a checkup to make sure she was healthy. The vet said she looked good. All her blood tests came back negative but she had a little cold. Vet said she was taken away from her mom to young so her system was weak. She is only about 6 weeks old. Over the weekend it turned into a respiratory infection. I wasn't prepared to deal with sick kitten so soon after Marvin being sick. 1st thing Monday morning I took her back to the vet. They gave her an iv and some steroids. The last 3 days I had to feed and water her with a syringe. Because kittens won't eat if they can't smell. I wish it was that simple for humans. But this morning we had a breakthrough. She ate like a crazy cat. She has eaten 3 times today. She still sounds wheezy but at least she is eating and drinking now. I think I am being trained for Kane. We did the sauna in the bathroom thing this weekend trying to clear up her congestion. My friend said just get ready for when the baby starts having these issues. This afternoon she charged at Macamoe. Mac didn't care for that to much. I think another day or two she will be acting like a kitten again.
