NEW UPDATE: Our little girl came through surgery well. The amputation went well, and no infection left behind...all edges were clear. She woke up well, if back to being a bit growly, but she is doing well so far! She will stay in critical care on pain meds and antibiotics for now. We are thrilled thus far...fingers remain crossed!!
Many thanks to the couple who realized this little girl needed help and trapped her, to the folks at Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre (that's where the people who found her called first) for contacting us, to the folks at Lennox & Addington Animal Hospital for seeing her right away and getting meds started and her care begun, to Missy Hull for doing the driving this morning, and to the folks at Richmond Veterinary Clinic, particularly Dr. DeMille, who agreed to do the surgery today!
After surgery pics added below...she is still groggy in them!
UPDATE - Surgery is underway!!! And a few more pics for you!
There are lots of kitties to update and things to tell you about...but at the moment this little girl is the most critical.
She is about 7 to 8 weeks old. She was part of a feral family, but the mum and other kittens have disappeared - possibly they have moved on and abandoned her or worse.
She is badly injured. And the injury is badly infected. You can smell her coming. She is missing bits of her leg and foot, bones are exposed and infection has set in.
She has been put on antibiotics and pain medication plus been given flea meds and a deworm.
The infection has spread to the bone so we must get the leg amputated as soon as possible or she will not make it.
We will be trying to make those arrangements as quickly as we can, but we need your financial support to help this little girl.
