foster kitten scare
I had to do a lime dip on the kittens today because of ringworm. I
checked on them a few times while they were drying and then put them in the bathroom because they were making an incredible amount of noise. When I went in to check them again, they were cold. Not out of it, but not very active and not making noise. Scared the life out of me. I immediately put two very damp sulfery kittens under my shirt skin to skin, grabbed a heating pad and a blanket and settled into the recliner for four hours with two kittens under my shirt, a heating pad over that and a blanket to hold it all in. They are now nicely settled into a small box with a heating pad with a towel covering it and they are sitting all warm and comfy and healthy, but a bit smelly. They are amazingly quiet - I think they have been making so much noise because they have been cold. Poor things. I think they are box kitties until they are a little older. Purrs for the poor dears, please. Bridget |

The rest of us are purring too but she's drowning us out. -- Will in New Haven |

Purrs for the poor dears, please. Purrs of course. And keep a really close eye on them while on the heat pad. Sometimes they aren't able to move away if it gets too hot. The darn thing over heat so easily. Jo |

Willow is my cold kitty. It got down to 65 last night and she woke me up
digging on the pillow next to me. I had left the heating pad by the bed and she was trying to drag it up on the pillow for the heat. I got up and fixed it for her. It is still a little cool today and she is still on it. "Will in New Haven" wrote in message ... On Jun 18, 4:24 pm, Bridget wrote: I had to do a lime dip on the kittens today because of ringworm.

Wow, that would have been the last thing you needed about now! But I'll bet they love you extra now for cuddling them until they were warm. |

Oh man, I would have been crushed if they had died because I wasn't paying enough attention to their condition. Not as bad as Tony, but it would have sucked royally. As it was, I cried most of the time until they became stable little kittens. |
