I should’ve called in late to work and/or taken the poor thing to my veterinarian but I foolishly assumed Harlequin was the concerned mother. Meanwhile, I stopped by Petsmart to get a nursing kit along with two cans of formula to help. When I got home, the kitten’s lifeless body was all I found. I’ll be taking it to the vet for cremation soon.
Somara and I are rather sad over it due to this being the second time such an awful incident has occurred.
There is an upside, I now have the means to rescue another kitten should another one is born on the back porch in the near future.
