Bandit
Out of five kittens rescued last week, Bandit is the only survivor of his litter. His last sibling was euthanized this morning. All of the kittens came down with a respiratory illness. We had thought that the last two were really pulling through fine until I was woken up last night.
Bandit is very small. He shivers a lot and I don’t know if it is too cold, or if he is frightened or sick. Angel watches over him constantly and makes sure he gets his medicine and special milk. She has a warm rubbery water pack that she lets him lay on to keep him warm.
He let me get a few pictures without a flash, but started to become picture shy.
We are hoping for the best for this little guy. Every day that passes brings with it a better chance for him to survive. He is very adorable.

All of the kittens we foster are temporary. We foster them for a friend and then she takes them to PetSmart to be adopted when they are ready.
