I popped in on the boys this afternoon. Walter was sitting on top of their little cardboard box cleaning his toes. Ira was eating his favorite food, Paw Lickin' Chicken.
The fluids they gave Ira had settled into one of his front legs. He looked like he was wearing a pair of baggy tights, stretched out at the knees.
Walter was spunky. Earlier he had tried to engage his brother in play. Ira wasn't interested. Walter's got an upper- respiratory thing going and was sneezing a lot, but his poo is well-formed.
Ira seemed slightly brighter than yesterday, but still nowhere close to Walter's energy level. He's still has diarrhea, but isn't sneezing like his brother.
They we're looking pretty crusty,, but still are adorable.
We miss them.
OMG! I have the exact same baggy tights as Ira! And I've been known to be pretty crusty, myself.
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear they're holding their own, with little improvements here and there. I KNOW they respond to your loving presence. Bless your heart for visiting them so frequently. Love and hugs to all the IBKC members.
sounds like the sweet little babes are on the mend. hopefully they will be home for christmas and tussling in the basket soon!
ReplyDeleteAwwww ... we love to hear updates that sweet little Walter and Ira are doing well. We are still sending healing purrs and smoochies (just in case it helps).
ReplyDeleteOh sweet boys, we are thinking of you... Be warm and well, little ones.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are able to visit them often, Laurie. Especially at this time of year, when I'm sure you have other holiday obligations - the fact that these kitties are so important to you that you gift them with your time is a little miracle for them. I heart you majorly!
ReplyDeleteI'm still keeping the Finches in my prayers and hope they get to be "home for Christmas" with you, Craig, Drewey and of course, the lovely Bean!

ReplyDeleteBaby steps for those baby boys. Huge love and support from us. Hold fast all.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear of the improvements, but sounds like they will need some more time in sick bay. Bless your heart for visiting with them so often, Laurie. I am sure you are the best medicine for them.
ReplyDeleteLaughing at "Paw-Lickin' Chicken" - just what an appetite challenged kitten needs!
still thinking of you all - thank you so much for the update. i can't wait for the update that they are back home with you. xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks for the updates! It let's us send the right prayers and thoughts to the boys. But how is Charlene doing with no kitten fud to snack on?
ReplyDeleteHope the wee wittle ones continue to improve. At least these are steps forward and not back.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I was a little worried when there was no update on yesterday's visit before I went to bed.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful to hear that the boys seem to be improving, if slowly. Hopefully they'll decide they've worried the humans enough, and be ridiculously healthy from here on in!
Stay strong, little Finches!
ReplyDeleteSending gentle lovies to both boys and hugs and thanks to you and Craig. xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh the poor little guys! We hope that they keep improving - Ira, you need to catch up to your brother please! We are still sending out lots of feel better and get well thoughts to them.
ReplyDeletecome on ira, let's get some firm poos!
ReplyDeleteThat's great! When they clean themselves, that means they feel a little better !
ReplyDeleteI am happy to hear that those little darlings are on Weruva. That is the best stuff ever!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the updates. Like most of the commenters, I also have been worried and eagerly looking for updates. I suspect I will also sneak onto the internet on my vacation just to see how they are doing.
Many hugs to those two... Get better soon!
I'm so glad the sweet boys are improving -- and thank you for both visiting them so regularly and keeping us updated. Emily sends lots of get well purrs!
ReplyDeletePositive news, phew! And I absolutely loved the Drewey/Charlene pictures you posted which I nearly missed in search of a baby update.
ReplyDeleteYay little Finches -- hang in there, you can do it!! We need to see you grow big and strong, and then we'll think back fondly and say, "Remember when we were so worried about them as itty bitties? Glad that's over!" :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the updates on the little kitties. We are still praying for them to get much better and come home.
ReplyDeletewe miss them, too! I am glad to hear that the boys are doing better, and I hope they continue to improve by leaps and bounds.
ReplyDeleteMany kisses to Ira and Walter! Pleeeeaaase get well!
ReplyDeleteYou are an angel to visit these little darlings and care so much about all the babies.
ReplyDeleteOh I hope they will get well soon.
