Bottle babies

We got a call at Red Lake Rosie's Rescue that a mama cat was killed by dog and there were 3 little 2-week-old kittens left orphaned.

The owner allegedly put them in a box in the woods where some kids found them and took them home. They began feeding them nonfat dry milk which would not nourish them. One died.

A very nice lady from Ponemah brought the two survivors to the RLRR shelter and we began bottling them with kitten milk.

The two little 8-ounce kittens have been here for 8 days now and are sucking the bottling and thriving. They are active, playful and very sweet.

We are happy to report the two orphans left Sunday, November 6th with Tom and Darcy enroute to the great foster care of Deb for Pet Haven.

Thank you all so much for helping these kittens!

Sincerely, Karen
