New member rescuing manx barn kittens

Post by breegold »

Hello all,

I originally posted in an existing thread, then figured maybe I should start my own. My friend has a farm where a colony of stray feral manx cats have taken up residence. I have been rescuing the kittens, getting them socialized, vetted and adopted (not for profit!). The latest litter of 3 has one with no tail whatsoever and fecal incontinence. I'm familiar with their general GI issues, but this one is new to me. I was hoping medication or surgery could fix it, but the more I read, the less likely I think that is, which makes her much less adoptable. I could always return her to the farm after her spay, but looking for some hope. :cry:

FYI my friend has gotten herself hospitalized trying to TNR these cats, so please appreciate efforts have been made.

What a cutie! Do you do Facebook? There are some groups there that have experienced parents of spinal cord injured critters who might be interested in taking such a high functioning cutie.

Hi all,

I got help from an amazing experienced local owner of an incontinent manx, so I think she's going to be all taken care of :)
