The bottle babies are doomed, I think. Their own mother won't have anything to do with them. A second has died and two more are on the verge.
I am exhausted and really fed up. I am going to have to let nature take it's course. I'm too tired to keep at it.
I've had one call on my ad in the paper. This guy had no idea what "fixed" meant and wanted to know "if they're rescued then they've been exposed to all that garbage". I had no idea what he meant. I suggested he adopt from a shelter then. He has no idea apparently that the free kittens handed out on craigslist have been exposed to everything in the world, including FIV and Felk because people let their females free roam and they have no clue what the daddies are carrying around.
Similar to letting your teen daughter go out and mate with disease ridden bums, prostitutes and truck drivers.
I don't like doing adoptions.
I am in a terrible mood from exhaustion and from watching bottle babes die. Must go to sleep and let be what happens.

It's so sad, I don't know how you do it. A few years ago I had an abandoned litter of 6; all Siamese except for one tabby. I did my best but one by one they all died except Frankie. It's really heartbreaking and I don't think I could go through it again.
Yes, it's terrible. I can't find any help. That old woman, well, she's unable being almost 90. The neighbor man up there, threatening her with action if she doesn't limit herself to two, when his own property is a junkyard and he lets his cat free roam and they stole the old woman's cat carrier, it gets to me. I feel for her and her cats but the neighbors won't help, other than to be mean. Too much for me to solve all these things alone, under exhaustion too. That man who throws out some food, and lets kittens get sick and doesn't even try to find them homes, that is getting to me also. that is another neighborhood full of drama and hate, neighbor against neighbor. People won't help with the cats but want to come tell me how awful this neighbor is or that neighbor, while I sit there trying to solve a problem for the victims of all this ridiculous human apathetic drama. Much of it is drugs at the root cause, drugs of one kind or another.
So very sad. For you, for the kittens, and for the elderly woman. Thinking of you.
we are thinking of you and wishing the best for the kittens, whatever that may be. i wish we could take the little guy below with the worms. i hope the old man is able to help follow-up. whenever i see the pictures you post, i alwsy say a prayer for each of the little guys..& even the ones not pictured but you mention.
