Posted on 2009/07/15 by UserI adopted a six week old kitten from a shelter two days ago. He weighs 1.5 pounds. When I took him home they told me he had diarrhea and gave me two 25 cc's worth of Albon.

baby bunnies
Posted on 2009/07/06 by UserWhat do we do with 5 baby bunnies that we saved from our backyard? We gathered the fur that was in the nest but we had to move them because we have two big dogs. What do we feed them? Will they survive the night? Will the mom come back to them?
