Hi Brony and everyone 🙂 I am so sorry I haven’t updated you about the remaining foster kitten who is DOING WELL so far!! As you may recall, I brought home three 5 – 6 week old siblings (two boys and a girl) to foster. One of the boys and the girl had the deadly virus Panleukopenia and were euthanized Sunday. My heart is broken, but the boy still with is us doing great for now. The shelter doctor said that if he is still doing well after two weeks from Sunday, October 22nd, he should be okay but one of the vet techs said three weeks. So, if he is still okay the 29th, it seems he will have escaped the virus. I slept on the floor of my powder room with him Sunday through Wednesday, and last night, Thursday, we slept in the den. We were up all night Wednesday with diarrhea and Thursday he had two tests for the virus which were both “inconclusive” so they let me bring him home. He’s on five medications I am administering to address the diarrhea, (which is much better) (I’m exhausted). I couldn’t let him into the den until I could sterilize every single surface three times with the sterilizing solution the shelter provided. I worry I missed a microbe of the virus, but yesterday I finally let the baby out into the den and we slept together on the couch. He was used to playing with his siblings so I am filling in for them in the best ways I can which means hours of playing with many different types of toys. All the toys are new because I had to throw away all of the trees, balls, EVERY toy or thing they touched. I’ll try to snap a few new pictures to share with you, and will give more updates and photos of the little darling. I really can’t express how much it means to have the support of our community at this time. It helps so much to have your concern and care. I sincerely Thank You❤️Toni

Poor little kitten. He had diarrhea all night. We’re being tested again today and I expect we will be saying goodbye 💔This is so sad because he’s eating and playing and we’re getting very close. I can see hoe he is getting smarter each day. I hope he is negative for panleuk, but it seems unlikely. I’ll let you know what happens. Toni
