Poor little Alice

She's beautiful but she feel lousy. She vomited yesterday - and didn't want to eat. She is a little brighter today but still not the joyful kitten of the photo shoot day.
I hate that. Sick animals are stressful for us - what can we do to make them better? What made them sick in the first place? Is what they have going to prove ot be contagious? How much is it going to cost the rescue? How can I make more time to care for the sick critter properly? Too many unanswered questions. Alice ended up having an xray then a bariuim series of xrays. Nothing overtly apparent but she still isn't right. DARN IT!
As is so typical of rescue land she and her brother have people interested in them. (If they were healthy there would be no leads I'm sure). I can't show or adopt them until I know she's feeling better. Little Simple Simon is thoroughly enjoying life here. Their combined purr could melt the coldest heart. Cross your fingers Alice bounces back.
