He seems to have calmed down and enjoys cuddles

I rushed out and bought some kitten milk and he readily ate it from an eye dropper. I'll try the bottle, next. Now he's snuggled down in the kitten bed. I'm going to give him a flea combing, next.

Skittish is no longer using the shelter and he's starting to bumble around.

His eyes need medication. I keep wiping them but some discharge is still forming. Not as bad as before, but I still want to get that taken care of. I usually get to the vet's office about 30 minutes before they open so I can be one of the first in the door.

Take her babies for safe home placement! Maybe she'll decide to ask to come in too someday.

The neighbor has tried to trap these ferals, with zero luck.

There are 6 ferals that come to my feeding station. Maybe I will have better luck.
