7/26/23 – This sweet baby, Kizmet, was one of 4 kittens accidentally run over by a hi-lo driver. The rescuer called our friend, Deb N., who contacted us. 3 of the babies were dead but Kizmet was still alive although his leg appeared to be broken/smashed. The mom of the kittens had been seen hovering over her babies but when the rescuer arrived she ran off. Our amazing friends at Orion Animal Hospital took Kizmet in immediately. Kizmet, at only .6lbs, had to have a section of her leg amputated. She is so tiny (as you can see), the doctor was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to be anesthetized. But the little trooper came through and is being cared for now by another great friend and animal angel, Emily K. This baby will need special feeding and when she is older and gains more weight she will need the rest of the leg amputated in that the doctor could only do so much because of her size. Sincerely!! God bless Dr. Zalac, her amazing staff, the angels who never turn their back when they see an animal in trouble, and those who fill their homes with love and care for the homeless. – diana

P.S. The driver of the hi-lo was devastated by this accident. And, the rescuer will be looking for the mom so that we can help her also.

Kizmet is feeling much better today and is taking her tube feeds and pain medications like a champ! She’s making muffins in her blankies and purring as I type. Thank you to all involved for making her life possible! – Emily
