Straight to jail.
P.S. if any mods from the og Reddit sub want to mod here, just Lemmy know
I rescued this guy from the roadside yesterday. Can you guys help me determine it's age? I'm at a very remote location with no easy access to a vet unfortunately...
Yeah that's not a weaned cat. That kitten needs 24 hour care to survive. And even then, it's iffy.
Check out the kitten lady's website, she has a wealth of tips for taking care of orphaned kittens. She has a page specifically in determining age:
She also has an active youtube channel with lots of tips. I really can't recommend her channel enough to people taking care if very young kittens with no mom.
Thanks! This is exactly what I needed
Awesome, glad I could be of help. Please keep us posted!
I just posted an update.. He's doing very well :)
Maybe a couple weeks old, if that.
Yep. Eyes are open, so it's at least 10 days old, but doesn't look to be too much older than that. This kitten will need to be bottle fed and stimulated to go to the bathroom. Kittenlady has a ton of info on her youtube
Poor baby :( so happy you rescued him
