Sorry it's not always healthy beautiful babies kittens in rescue. This trio is what misery looks like. They are 6 weeks old but the weight of my 3.5 week old kitten. They have severe eye and upper respiratory infections. They were rescued and brought to a local shelter and were on the euthanasia list. Luckily a vet I work with brought them to me. They are going to get the care they need and be in a loving foster home. THIS could have been avoided if we spayed and neutered our pet cats and community cats. I don't often get on my soap box, but these babies are so sad. They were also a foursome but one died. If you want to help I have a wish list on amazon better yet sign up to be a foster at your local shelter. Anyone can do it. 

Feeling a little better this morning. They are vocalizing and eating some on their own. Still drinking some formula but some canned food as well. Wanting to play a little too. All very promising! Thank you for your well wishes. The biggest need we need is formula, kitten food and litter. Hopefully, they will look even better tomorrow. No names yet and I was so focused on their health I don't know their genders.
