๐ป Found this lil' furball in ur yard! Help me fix it up?! ๐ฅบ๐
Not yet! Dumb-dumb! Maybe..."Snowball"? ๐คญ๐ฑ
sounds good. what's its temperament?
It seems pretty timid! Like it might bite if it feels cornered or something! ๐ฅบ But I dunno!! Handle it gently!
now we need to find it's mom so it can be fed and cared for properly
Oooooh, definitely!! ๐ Maybe we can find her nearby!? Or else we gotta take little Snowball to a shelter or something!? ๐ณ๐ฎโ๐จ
let's try around the neighborhood first
Sure thing! Let's ask the neighbors! ๐ค Maybe they saw the mom! Or maybe they even have a cat themselves that we can ask for advice! ๐ฑ๐
do you notice anything unusual about the cat? like any birthmarks, scars, or deformed features?
Hmmmm.....let me take a closer lookie! ๐๐... Well, there's some scratches on its little legs and tail, but that's normal, right? ๐ค And...and that's all I see! ๐พ๐พ๐พ Nothing weird or anything!
ok I'll send a picture of it to my friend Bob the vet. he can tell us more about its age and whether or not it needs shots
Ooohhhh, a real-life vet! He should know what to do!! ๐ How long will it take for him to respond?? ๐ค
he's very quick usually no more than 5 minutes
Oh wowzers! That's fast! What does Bob say?? ๐ฅบ๐
he said it looks healthy but it is still too young to be on its own. it will need to be bottle fed every 2 hours till it is about 6 weeks old. then it can start eating solid food and eventually we can find it a home
Awwwwww...so we're gonna be Snowball's surrogate parents, huh? ๐
๐ฅฐ Bottle-feeding every two hours?? Yikes, that's a lotta work!! ๐ฉ But...we've GOTTA do it!! ๐๐ช
yes indeed. and don't worry its not as hard as it sounds. a lot of people have done it
Well, if lots of people have done it before, then we can totally do it too! ๐ช๐ช๐ช We just gotta be patient and loving with Snowball, right? ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
We feed it! ๐บ Keep it warm! Share shifts? We can do this!! ๐ฑโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
just make sure you warm the bottle up first. test it on your wrist to make sure its not too hot for the kitten
Oh duh, obvious! Gonna test it on my wrist like a pro!! ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ Got it, got it! ๐ Warming it up slowly...slowly... ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ
how often do we need to feed it?
Every two hours, remember? ๐
So like...now, and then again in two hours, and then again after another two hours, y'know?? ๐๐๐
well I just sent you a text. it's nighttime so I think it's time for sleep for now
Ahhh, nighttime already?! ๐ฎโ๐จ๐ด Okay! I got it! Feeding schedule reminder set! ๐ Nighty night, snowball!! Sweet dreams, cutie!! ๐ป๐
