Hi,
I found a kitten in my yard today. He looks about 5 weeks old, possibly younger. My other cat, who is seven years old, brought him to us.
His eyes were covored in a slimy film that we cleaned off with q-tips and water. He also had the film over his nose, but we cleaned it off, too. We are using a dropper to get him to drink water, and feeding him very small amounts of wet kitten food.
Although we're not exactly sure, his two front legs seem to be broken. We think he could have been hit by a car. He cannot stand for long without falling, and his eyes don't seem to move when we move our fingers in front of his face. Although there seems to be some dialation.
We cannot afford a vet's bill right now; I know it's bad to say, but we cannot. We are trying everything we can do to try to get him to better health, but we were up for any and all suggestion. Could we wrap his legs? Is there anything we could give him, like benadryl or other human medication? He seems congested.
Thanks so much.
