Abandoned Kitten Needs A Name
Hi all
Just got a new kitten last wednesday. A friend came over with him and said his friend found him abandoned along with 2 of his littermates which were dead. Initially I said I did not want the cat as I have four others so he said they were going to put him back where they found him. At that point I said I'd keep him. He appeared to be about four weeks old and his eyes were swollen almost shut with goop caked around them. I had some terramycin that was 2 months expired but figured it was better than nothing for the eyes. He was also sneazing alot. On friday his eyes looked substantially better but just to make sure things were going in the right direction I took him to the vet. They confirmed that he is only 4 weeks old and has worms, resp infection, eye infection, fleas and ear mites. Here is his pictu http://members.aol.com/alg460/kitten.jpg As you can see he looks great now (much better than he did) and all the treatments are working fine and he is now very happy, content and active. At first he did nothing but sleep and sit and stare when awake. He loves people and has slept right smack against me and my wife every single night so far. Hope one of us dont roll over and squish him. He fits in the palm of my hand. So far so good with the other cats (all females). At first they would hiss at just the sight of him. They seem to be getting over it and I actually saw one of them washing up the kitten. The only problem now is he is running all over the house and running under the other cats and getting in front of them, standing on his hind legs and putting his paws in their face. They hiss a little or give him a little tap on the head to knock him off balance. He still walks funny and wobbles when he walks but he sure can run. What kind of jerk would throw away 3 kittens and leave them to die. Only thing he needs now is a name. Tony |

Oh he's a cutie. He reminds me very much of my cat Rodney (RB) when he
was a kitten. When I saw the pic the first name that came immediately to mind was Toby. I know it's close to your name but when has that ever stopped anybody? Tony and Toby. Yeah. I like it. :-) Megan "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." -Edmund Burke Learn The TRUTH About Declawing http://www.stopdeclaw.com Zuzu's Cats Photo Album: http://www.PictureTrail.com/zuzu22 "Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too.

Oo. I like. Tobey for Tobey McGuire would be good too. He plays a lot of
characters that end up being great people from their tough breaks early in life. Karen wrote in message ... Oh he's a cutie. He reminds me very much of my cat Rodney (RB) when he was a kitten.
