Keep fighting, little man, you'll see that not everybody is cruel and heartless, and that life can be fun.

Praying for you, sweetie.

Colby says thank you for all the hugs and kisses, he has never known such :Luv2:   

He has eaten a little more this morning and has drunk some fluid voluntarily so that is a good sign that we're not having to syringe feed him thus far today.  He is still very sore bless him but has made himself a little groove in his big thick blankets / bed on top of his snugglesafe to keep him warm.

He is trying to move around a little but you can see he is clearly in pain and everything is a real effort because he is so weak.   :(  But his wee eyes are a tad brighter today too.

It is definately fair to say that I don't think he would still be with us had we got to him any later and I just hope and pray that he has the strength to keep fighting and his little body keeps up the fight too.  :wish:

Will give you another update later on today to let you know how he is doing then but please keep your fingers and paws crossed for the little man as he is far from out of the woods for now  :'(

Our assumptions for now is that he was dumped in the fields where he was found as there is no way in the state he was in he could have wandered to where he was from town, but then I suppose anything is possible.  Certainly whoever was responsible for his care previously (which has definately been someone) I hope they receive their Karma for the pain and suffering this little baby is enduring.  :censored:

hi guys    :hug:  :hug:     :thanks:

Colby is still with us this morning :)     he is still very very weak but has tried to eat a little himself this morning and has finally managed to pass some urine which he was struggling with last night.  He got through the night so lets hope that this has given him a fighting chance to stay alive.    :scared:   :Luv2:

We both sat up with him very late last night and eventually he passed out with exhaustion after we gave him some Metacam as he was in so much pain bless him.  He was runninga fever and we actually think he was taking severe stomach cramps and that on top of his very sore bottom / innards and an inability to pee as well as his very weakened state he was really really struggling.  It just broke our hearts to see him in so much pain.   :'(

I have to admit that neither of us really expected to check on him early this morning and him still be with us but he is a little fighter and just keeps trooping on.     I also have to thank wee Herbie as he watched over the little one constantly yesterday and slept next to his cage last night watching over little Colby which was so sweet to see and wee Colby kept looking for him so I like to think that helped the wee man too.   :Luv2:

Colby is far from out of the woods at the moment and all we can do is hope that the little guy continues to fight for the next few days whilst we give him the care he needs and keep our hopes up that he can continue to fight although we're not getting our hopes up too high for now.    :scared:

Just catching up on this post.   :(
it truely sickens me to see such a beautiful animal in such a state, bless the little chi-chi face.  Hes is such a cutie.
How can anyone leave a baby to get in such a state, or dump them, or what ever happened to let him get like this.   :'(
Its not fair.
Fingers crossed with all of our vibes being sent and the love and care he is now getting the little baby can forget his bad start in life, and keep purring away.
