Skinny Pete

1/5 of my foster kittens. They're approximately 5-6 weeks old now. Named: Skinny Pete, Badger, Ophelia, Lucille, and Pasha.
They were found in a box when they were 4 weeks old outside of a vets office and, boy, I have never had a sicklier or dirtier litter of kittens! Took me two weeks to get them to have SOME solid poops after daily probiotics. They were having straight liquid diarrhea before and half the time they couldn't make it to the box (poop samples were sent out and came back without any results although the vet saw a lot of bacteria when she looked at it on a slide). They also just don't know how to keep clean in general yet and constantly needed to be wiped down/rinsed off. They've been wormed twice since we got them and that should also help them out a bit. They're also all very skinny and have trouble keeping weight on but most of them are very active. Skinny Pete and Ophelia are the two whom I've had to give fluids to multiple times (Ophelia at one point had a temperature of 96) subq and oral.
I'm hoping Ophelia and Skinny Pete, the two weakest in the litter, keep on thriving! All these ups and downs, I've definitely gotten attached to this litter. I definitely won't be keeping any though as my cat unfortunately doesn't care for other cats (this litter is staying in my bathroom until they're well enough to be adopted after they're 8 weeks).

Skinny Pete is super sweet, loves to lay in my lap, but also loves to play. They're a very social little litter.

They're with 911 Dog & Cat Rescue but are not currently listed online.
