Brief background...
About a week ago I took a stray that had been hanging around our house to the vet for some medical care & to have a check over so we could keep her. Unfortunately, we found out she had Feline Leukemia and had her PTS. At the time she was either pregnant or had recently had kittens- vet said an x-ray was needed to know for sure but... well we didn't for obvious reasons.
Then tonight we found two baby kittens!!! They are soooo cute!!! I really think they are probably Scary's kittens. They are crying like crazy- what do I feed them? I don't have all of the stuff to make that special kitten goop and I'm not sure how old they are... I will try putting some of Maui's kitten food in with them to see if they'll eat it... I can try canned too unless you all have some other suggestion.
My next question is what do I do about the possibility of them having Fel. Leuk? Is there a way I can have them tested possibly through a rescue group for cheap and then I could foster them until they find a home? It's $30 a test from my vet and $35 (each) if they have to be put down
It's not a lot of money but at the same time it is. Plus I just went through this last week or so with Scary.
Any advice will be appreciated! Right now they are in a box and we'll be putting them in the office for the night. I will put a blanky in with them and hope they can cuddle up with it.
