I was wondering if I could get some prayers for a small little kitten. I volenteer and help animal control capture fix and release feral cats. The mama's that are pregnant I work with until they have their litter. The littler will be adopted out and if I can work with the mama she goes out for adoption too. I also take abuse cases and work with them.

Right now I have a mama named Molly who has four kittens. I captured Molly when the kittens were a day old. They are now 5 weeks old. One of the kittens I named Buttons is having a problem with his shoulder. He has a big infection in the bone. I am giving him antibiotics for another 6 weeks. He is going in for a bone marrow biopsy on tuesday morning . They suspect cancer or a bone infection. The infection has destroyed his shoulder plate. He is still walking and playing. I am hoping it is not cancer. He would lose the leg if it is. So he needs some prayers for a good outcome.
Thanks so much! Suzanne

thanks! My heart goes out to these poor discarded or forgotten animals. Karen (02kar) has helped me a lot with some special abused cats. They have turned around for the good and gone on to very happy homes.
It is a big success when you can save some of them. I have fixed over a hundred cats and gotten a little more than half off the street and into loving homes. The work continues. I am worried about this little guy. A biopsy is a big thing seeing he weighs only 14 ounces. Thanks for the prayers. Suzanne

When my daughter was younger, she worked for the county animal shelter. She brought home the smallest kitten who had an eye infection and was being pushed around by her older siblings. I got to give 2 different eye meds while my d was in school. Needless to say, Tabitha stayed for the next 17 years. She just passed this past winter. What a personality that one had. And the interesting coincidence is, that she was born on the same day that my now sil's german shepherd, Hunter was born! They didn't even know each other yet.
Hope things work out for that poor kitten.

Of course I will pray for little Buttons, on my knees, even. Thank you so much for caring for these little ones, It takes a lot of heart to work with them, because it hurts so much when they are hurting. I'll keep you in my prayers as well. My biggest hugs, Marji

A lot o these cats melt my heart. They are all special in some way . Some more than others. They all touch my heart but some steal a piece of it when they leave. Suzanne

Oh, Suzanne....many many thanks and hugs and prayers to you for doing all you are doing for the feral population!! My hubby and I do the same thing on our own, TNR.....some of our vets work with us on payment and for that we are thankful. Depending on the outcome of Buttons, you will always have the good feeling of knowing you did everything you could to help him and he has known love that he never would have experienced had you not intervened.......Big kitty hug to you...Vicki & her zoo (LOL)

It is a huge job but I save so many cats and they are healthier in the long run. I also get a lot adopted out that otherwise would be on the street. I was doing it on my own but hooked up with the ACO from the city. She has grants to help. Bless her she was awsome! Suzanne
