According to our vet, she is around 4 months old. She weighed under 3 pounds initially but she feels like she’s gained weight already lol. We’re doing oral antibiotics and antibiotic eye ointment for her URI, and also had an antibiotic injection at the vet. Once she’s healthy, we’ll bathe her and scrub the rest of the grease off (we wipe her down with a warm damp cloth every time we go in and see her) as well as doing vaccines and test for FIV — until then she’s in isolation to prevent our other babies from getting sick. He said the only other thing she needs is plenty of TLC and we are more than happy to spoil her!
The day my hubby found her was also the anniversary of my daughter’s feral TNR soul kitty, Carlos, passing. Hubby never goes to that gas station and can’t explain why he did that night. We believe Carlos led him to this desperate kitten and she is now in her forever home. We initially were calling her Carli, in honor of Carlos, but her wobbles have earned her the nickname of Tippy 😂. She’s getting stronger by the day and is so sweet and affectionate. The moment hubby put her in his lap and cranked the heater, she began purring and making biscuits. She snuggles into our laps or necks and rubs her face on ours. I don’t know how she ended up at that gas station but we are absolutely thrilled to add her to our family 💜
