SWEETIE AND HER KITTENS RESCUED

6/12/23 – It all started when a kitten ran in front of Elizabeth’s car. In that she has trapped and TNR’d many of the stray cats in her neighborhood, Elizabeth got out of her car and was able to follow the kitten who led her to two siblings and a mom (Sweetie). The kittens were about 3 months old. The mom, Sweetie, was friendly and when Elizabeth picked her up, she noticed that Sweetie appeared to be lactating. She returned to the original location and found 3 1-2 week year old kittens. Elizabeth was able to get help for the 3 month olds from the Oakland County Animal and Adoption Center but not Sweetie and the newborns. That is when she contacted us. We were prepared to help the entire family but the first to be seen was the kitten named Blueberry who appeared to have an Upper Respiratory Infection. Blueberry was taken to Orion Animal Hospital and treated. Everyone else was going to be taken to All About Animals when mom was finished nursing and the babies were ready. Since that time, Blueberry recovered nicely and Oakland County agreed to take on the remaining medical needs including adoption while Elizabeth continues to foster everyone. It takes a Village and we are so very fortunate to be a part of that Village. – diana
