I made a post on monday, a bit of a rant really... A feral kitten in my care was in devastating health condition, and taken home by a neighbor who really didn't have a clue what she was doing...
He was near death when I went over, hardly even alive, and dehydrated beyond belief.
But SUCCESS!
With a bit of care-coaching and 300$ in vet costs,
"Puss-in-Boots" is staying with his new owner, all signs of dehydration gone, rapidly putting on weight and has regained all the energy a healthy kitten should have!(still coughing, but not nearly as much!)
One feral kitten rescued to a loving home with a loving owner, and actually well socialized after only one week in human care!!!! He even gets along with the dogs and other cats in the home, and uses the litterbox etc.
I want to thank everyone who responded to my earlier rant, and for the advice you gave, because it all worked and played a hand in getting Puss in Boots back to good health!
Now to catch and spay that mother...
