Bottle feeding my foster kitties.
#3
RE: Bottle feeding my foster kitties.
C/L,

Run...don't walk...to a vet and have them tested for this:

http://icatcare.org/advice/cat-health/fe...enia-virus


Quote:Feline parvovirus infection is probably the greatest major disease threat to any rescue facility and infection carries a very high mortality rate, particularly in unvaccinated kittens

But even worse is this,

Quote:and parvoviruses are particularly dangerous as they are able to survive for long periods (up to several years) in the environment, and are resistant to many disinfectants.

Thus until you are certain they don't have parvo you cannot bring another unvaccinated kitten into your home.

Our Rescue took in 5 puppies with parvo last year.  Because we got them early they all lived....although it cost us $25,000. 

They are cute.  I hope they have something else.
