Four Cats Fixed Today

This brown tabby female was lactating but the vet said she had very little milk. He said, however, something was nursing on her. The caretakers had said she had kittens about five weeks ago, but they've not seen them. They had figured all of them died, or were killed. When I found out she was lactating, I called them up so they could start looking for any kittens out there. She'll be home early tomorrow morning, at least.
This is an adult kitten from a previous litter of the above brown tabby female. Both eyes have been damaged by the herpes virus. She is functionally blind. The vet told me if the caretakers want to try anti viral drops, her eyes could be cleared some possibly by use of that. I gave them the information.
This was the only male of the four fixed today.
This was the teenage preggie, spayed today, sister of above gray tabby male. Both are older kittens from the brown tabby female in the first photo, but only cousins of the second shown female.

Four cats were fixed today from the Lebanon colony I've been working. I've taken in ten so far from there.

There are still two orange males up there needing fixed, but they are not frequently seen. There are still two females up there needing fixed. One is nursing three young kittens while the other is the female who just got pregnant and the caretakers husband wants her ot have kittens. Then there are the three kittens who will need fixed, the ones already born, plus any out there alive out of the brown tabby female. So, even if no more kittens were born, there would still be at minimum, seven more cats needing fixed up there, four adults, three kittens. And that's only if none survive of the brown tabby female's litter.
