After putting our Thurston down two weeks ago I thought I was done with cats. Nope. My 20-year old son picked up a stray kitten in North Philly and it's now at our house. It had an obviously bad eye infection so after a quick bath (he was also filthy) he was off to the vet where he was wormed and given antibiotics and ointment for his eyes. He's about six weeks old, and they won't vaccinate till the infection is gone. He is growing on me, but it's not a good home for such a tiny animal -- we have three dogs, an old border collie mix who would seriously not think twice about killing Carl, and two Great Danes who don't seem to mind Carl, but could seriously hurt him just by accident.
So for now Carl is living in an old dog cage we had from crate training a previous dog. It's roomy enough for his bedding and food and litter box. We do let him out when the dogs are outside, but he is so, so tiny. Can't wait till he puts on some size.
