Good Morning Monday.
I am doing a little catch up. Here are some pics of the Munchkin. She LOVES kitties.
We found two tiny kittens beside a dumpster. Eyes still closed meowing like crazy. She insisted we take them. I insisted we take a walk and see if the Mommy Kitty came back.
We went for a walk and they were still there when we came back. Both were cold, stinky and hungry. We took them home, gave them a bath and fed them with a medicine dropper.
FYI, Baby shampoo and dish detergent is a great flea bath! It rendered them flea less!
One one managed to live two days, but the other one was strong and I was able to give him meds from a vet. I named him Fork.
After three weeks, he also passed away. I was devastated. This was the first time, I had to explain death to the munchkin. She doesn’t really get it yet. And I never let her see them after they passed. She still asked a few times where “Sister” was. She called them both “Sister”.
I think at this age it is easier just to say, Kitty went away.
Munchkin is doing well, and I know we will have more kitties to save in the future. 🙂
At the moment, Munchkin and I are nursing colds. Who knew we would be struck down so soon after starting preschool. The sound of dueling nose blowing abounds. A few coughs thrown in for good measure.
On a positive note, I have had time for studying Serbian thanks to Preschool! Hooray!
Dobar Dan Y’all!
well you done well its so sad that both the kittens died but al least you and Munchkin helped them
during there sad little life’s I always say a prey for them after all they have a life force in them just like we humans have I guess you get idiots in all countries that just dump animals like there a piece of rubbish thanks’ for helping the kittens out

Thanks for the kind words. You made me tear up a bit. I believe you are right. Thanks again.
How horribly sad — I’m glad you were able to give the kitties at least a little love and comfort in their short lives. And it’s so hard to have to explain “death” to kids … you probably did the best thing in just saying “they went away”.
Hugs to you both!!!
