An abandoned kitten. It's mother was killed by a car 3 days ago. Nobody knew she had kittens behind a garage until today. 3 of the kittens were adopted out and the last one got stuck with me. It's about 2 or 3 weeks old and needs to be bottle fed. I must be insane!!! My dog is trying to lick it to death and my other 3 cats are planning the kittens demise as I write. Any suggestions and encouragement are welcome. One more thing. I finally found a job. I was there 3 weeks and the store next to it burned down and cause fire damage to us. My new employer has to shut down for 4 to 6 months while he makes repairs. I am once again out of a job!!!!

The kitty is becoming a pain. I hate bottle feeding it because it doesn't seem to want to eat and then it gets all over me. It still meows all the time. Erika wants to pick it by the neck. I have to take medicine every day. We are worried we are going to step on it. I wish I didn't do thinks without thinking them over. I'm sure you think the same thing. Are you going to bottle feed it until it's 6 weeks. Did you get the formula or are you giving it milk?
I'm sorry about Geppettos. You will find something new until Geppettos re-opens. It's sad! I can believe how many of us have worked there (Johnny, Dwight, Natalie, Lizzy, Me, You, and Jenny.) What about another pizza place? Have you tried applying at any? Well I love you. Talk to you later.

You might want to try a plastic eye dropper and just squeeze tiny amouts into his mouth. just like a drop at a time. I' using a formula I got from the vet. He/she loves it. We keep it in a large pet carrier untill everything settles down. The jen let's it walk around her room with the door shut.This kitten seems to be doing fine with the bottle. It cries alot. I'm thinking they are about 3 to 4 weeks old from what I've been reading. Call me if you have any questions...I love you guys.
Picking up by the neck is a natural thing for mothers of all kinds. Actually, it can really make the baby docile...try that when you feed him. What about the name Geppetto? Seems like out from a bad thing springs this wonderful creature!! I too, had to feed 3 kittens for over a month...the time went by quickly and is a wonderful memory to this day!! The 3 of them fit in my one hand!!
He needs you don't give up!!
Good words.
