Whisper and her litter of four came into the shelter when the kittens were about 7 days old. She is a community cat, and so she is shy. She is also small and likely only about 1 year old by my reckoning. They only spent an hour or two at the shelter before I picked them up. They were all stressed as expected, and she initially refused food. One of the babies was significantly smaller and had an upper respiratory infection. I brought her back the vet the next morning, because she was clearly struggling, and sadly she didn't make it. The other two tabby kittens, by coincidence, both had right eye infections. They are doing much better with drops. The smallest one of the remaining three is also on supplemental Nutrical twice a day to help him over the hump until he's strong enough with just mother's milk.
