I am leaving in 10 minutes to pick up 5 abandoned kittens born from a stray. Not sure of the age or how long its been since the ate, honestly not sure if they are all still alive, they have been outside all day in Ohio heat.
I have bottles and formula, but cannot bottle feed 5 babies around the clock-- I work! I have a full day tomorrow but hubby is off and can help, I'm work half day Wednesday, full day Thursday off Fri, Sat, sun, Mon this weekend only!
We have called rescues and nobody will feed them, only put them down. Which I realize may be the only option if they are unwell, and will do that if necessary.
If these babies are too hot, how do I properly cool them from being outside?
Also I have a female who is spayed but will probably help me mother them--took her in pregnant last year and she had five who all have homes. If she helps them potty, can she catch illness's from them? She has rabies and FVCRP whatever that acronym is utd.
Please help, I'm going nuts here. Pray they are not as young as the lady thinks, who found them!!
Thank you.
Leslie I'm in the Cincinnati area if anyone can help. I do have a friend and husband who will help me tonight but after that I'm on my own.
