I helped raise 5 week old kittens abandoned in my daughter’s yard..The milk was expensive but it worked..They all survived..I have a a rescue, Silky, right beside me..again from my daughter’s yard..I think they make great pets.
Silky helped me get on with having a pet again after my dear Purty died of cancer(another rescue) I am slow to get a new kitty always..but finally do.
All of my pets were rescued,even when I was a kid.
I wouldn't haven't gotten another kitten for a while,but here they are to save the day.:)
Junior died of the same ailment.I couldn't believe how fast the tumor appeared.One day he had nothing and two days later he had a lump by his ear.When I took him to the vet they thought it was an abscess and I authorized the surgery to drain it.They didn't find that is was a tumor until they already made the incision.The vet called me at home and gave me the bad news.It was already to big to remove and since he was already under I told her to put him to sleep.
It was hard and I bawled like a baby.The sad thing was that we couldn't say our goodbyes.
But enough of this sad story.After all this is the Warm and Fuzzies.
He will always be remembered as a great loving cat.
Both kittens are sleeping on my lap right now.:)
