On Monday we received a call from East Cowes Fuel Limited to say that they had found a mother cat and one seriously ill kitten. The Kitten had been found trapped down a large shaft. The mother was obviously distressed and the kitten was in a life threatening condition.
The kitten now named Ethel was rushed to the vets and stayed overnight. She was severely dehydrated and malnourished. After a few days at the vets she was re-united with mum Lindy. It was a heart warming sight. Both of them were obviously relieved to see each other again.
We are continuing to keep a close eye on Ethel, she is very small for a kitten of 12 weeks of age. She has been eating well and mum has been on hand looking after her. Both of them have started a course of worming treatment. Fingers crossed that little Ethel is through the worst and on the road to a full recovery.
