Hey, what's up guys? I know it's been a little bit yet again since I've made video, but I
M moving is hard. Yeah one. I got really sick like always because my immune system
Just doesn't exist so yeah, my sound a little weird right now. It's cuz I had a really bad cold and
Like your infection and all this fun stuff, and it wiped me out for like two weeks straight
I've just been dead on top of that we had the kitten situation
you know a newborn kitten and raising you know my other animals and
moving and being sick at the same time
It's just been impossible to film so yet again more inconsistent videos. You're welcome
it's basically all you can expect from me now right basically the only thing that stays consistent in my life is the fact that my
videos are inconsistent I
Am just so excited for the day that these videos get consistent and not every single video has to open with me
apologizing for not making a video for a while
but I think it's not gonna happen until my apartment and all my furniture gets here and
Everything gets unpacked because I've been here for a month now still haven't unpacked
Everything so it's just taking me a little bit. I do have a video I do want to make very soon
I had a wonderful company than me - amazing clownfish
They're so beautiful, and I had been promising to make that video for a little bit now, and I still haven't made it
But this video I feel like needs to come first because I do want to address something that kind of happened since my last video
And I feel like I need to talk about it before I talk about anything else my intros are always so long
I don't even have intros. I just I talk so much. I'm sorry so we're gonna talk about in my last video
I rescued two kittens as some of you guys
Pay no because you watched the video. I wanted to update you guys on their progress and
Everything like that
But it does start with some pretty sad news the female kitten a little gray one did not survive
She passed away a few days after my last video
She passed away from something called fading kitten syndrome basically fading kitten syndrome is from insufficient mothering
You know the mother abandons them isn't around or whatever
And the kitten basically slowly fades out and dies their body is not functioning to the fullest without their mother. This is something
That's very common
With kittens it's one reason that a mother has so many you know has such a large litter of cats is because cats don't always
survive past being kittens
And it's especially hard for them to survive their first few weeks when the mother isn't there
So it was really emotional and really sad
And I was really really scared to talk to you guys about this at first because I didn't want people
To believe that I had neglected the kitten or done something that caused it to pass away
Not only the vet assured me that that is not the case
But so many people have been so kind and loving letting me know that like
Fostering kittens is hard and that so many times
This is a very common thing to happen when fostering cats is that one you know some of the kittens
Just don't make it so sadly. She did not make it. I was heartbroken I cried so much I
sad story here
but the way that she died was actually I guess it was good because she was surrounded by you know loved so one morning I
Went in to try to feed the kittens
And she did not want to eat which immediately concerned me because the cats should eat every two to three hours
They should not not want food
I tried to give her it anyway
And she ended up throwing it back up so that made me realize that there is something definitely very wrong here
I mainly called the vet. Got an appointment rushed her over there took her to the vet
They looked at her and they said her
Gums are very white and that that was concerning and that she may be anemic from you know being
Found in a construction zone for you know who knows how long she went without a mother and covered in fleas
She probably is a little anemic so they gave me some stuff to force-feed her. They gave me an iron supplement
They actually said that she looked really good, otherwise and they sent me home with the supplement
Oh someone someone's coming to say hello, so I brought her back home
and I put her with her brother in the bathroom that they were staying in and I
Went to bed because it was really early so I went to like take a nap or something two hours later
I heard a little guy here
I've named him Nemo, but we heard we heard a little Nemo here meowing so I went in there to feed them
I'm like oh, they must be hungry again two hours later
so I walk in there and
The gray kitten is on the ground with her hands coiled up like this her hands are coiled like dust her mouth is wide open
And her eyes are open so I was like I just my heart sunk
I grabbed her and I started to I found her heart, and I started pumping on it
And I guess that worked because she started she let out a big scream, and then she started meowing again
So I was like okay. She's still alive. There's still a chain hop back in the car rushed back over to the vet
I pumped her heart the whole way there. I was keeping it pumping. I didn't know exactly how to do CPR
I was trying, but I just kept pumping the heart and she kept letting out screams the hole right there
So she couldn't close her mouth. She looked really bad, but she was alive so we got to the vet
The vet rushed her back. He said they put her on fluids
They got her stable and they were gonna keep her and try to you know figure out
What's wrong with her? So I left her there. I drove home in 45 minutes later
I got a phone call that she had passed away
and the vet said there's absolutely nothing that could have been done and
that
Not to let that you know discouraged me
With my other cat because I was doing a really good job with the cat blah blah blah, so that's what happened
But there's a lot of speculation online that you know people do believe that it was something I did
Sorry cold here
There's a lot of people that said that they don't believe I took the cats to the vet in the first place
Say stray, this is the female one we're gonna blur out my information
But as you can see is the stray kitten exam for the female
This is all her information so what it says here
So it says that her general appearance here was normal bright alert responsive
The attitude was normal hungry crying very active eyes normal eyes clean bright comfortable
No apparent visual defects ears clean dry comfortable normal nose
no nasal discharge oral cavity normal normal gait and posture muscular skeletal system normal
Weight-bearing all four legs well muscled no pain noted on palpation
abdomen and abdomen organs normal cardiovascular system normal rest taursus normal urogenital system normal, so
Everything on this females papers was normal
So the vet clearly stated to me that there's just nothing that could have been done and that it wasn't on me and to keep
Doing everything that I was already doing and that the male should do great, so I you know it was really hard
I was really paranoid. I have taken the mail to the vet
So many times now like any time like get a little drainage out of his eye rushing with that. They're like that's normal
He's fine, go home. He got a little fat
I took him to the vet
And they're like that's normal that means he ate good go home and so like I've been so paranoid with this little guy
But he's doing so good. He's actually very big now
Hey, hi Nemo. He just started using the restroom by himself, so I no longer have to
Stimulate him he is eating a gruel
Which is a mix of kitten milk and regular food?
And he is now learning how to play - which has been really cute to watch him very badly try to play anyway
I have documented his growth and I kind of just you know I wanted to show you guys how he's been doing so here's all
The footage of him growing up to where he is now
enjoy
You
So this is day two of feeding him some gruel
which is basically like the kitten knee replacement milk mixed with some wet cat food and
something called step two which is kind of like the second step basically and to
Transitioning them into solid foods and trying to mix it up to get it perfect
but basically it's like supposed to be like an oatmeal II
consistency where it's the milk with a little meat in it kind of got the news to eating things other than just
You know the mom's milk
We're trying to encourage to get him to slap on food instead of suck
And see how this goes okay dark like you're Paul alright, and do it okay that went better
Are you grooming yourself oh my goodness you're growing up you're grooming yourself
I'm proud of you you mean you didn't do the best job at it. Everybody got a little got a little stuff on you, but
You're trying
You like in your fat belly you got fat belly did you know that?
