    Found this little guy after a storm ... I waited a few days for its mother to return after building a little shelter but no dice.  I have my niece raising it and seems to be doing well.  Here he is a day after opening eyes ...


    Oh man how cute hope he adjusts well and healthy 

    I wanted to name him Lucky Louie ... I think my niece is going to veto that, but she is raising so I will defer.  
    Maybe she might compromise and call him Sweet Lew? 

    He is lucky you found him... good job taking care of him.

    Lucky Louie is a great name hope she decides to name him that it just fits so well with his circumstances

    So little. I am sure they need special care at that age without a mother. So lucky you found that sweet baby.

    Lou is doing well ... probably having a better day than me!   Kitten formula could make things .... messy .... at times, but seems like he (she?) is going to make it.

    Super cute. I don't want to be a downer, but sometimes little bellies like that can be a sign of worms in kittens and puppies. Just something to ask a vet about when you get him/her checked out. But so cute!!!

    Eye infections seem to bother him early on.  I've noticed that is common in kittens around my area.  Got some ointment from the vet that clears things up.

    I believe you just need to bring in a stool sample but def check with vet on how to get it done

    Yes, definitely ask the vet in advance about this... bringing the stool at the 1st visit will save you a return trip. 

    When we got Nuala, her stools were unbearably stinky... @Glowgirl (correctly) suggested it might be a parasite; bringing the sample for the 1st visit saved us not only a return trip, but also got us her diagnosis and prescription that much faster.

    This guy showed up last year along with 3 other siblings ... he is the only one OK with human interaction ... even though the others see me feeding them.

    Mainly an outdoor cat but comes in the patio.  Very playful and fearless.

    Getting a good pic of a cat is catching lighting in a bottle.

    Lou is set for a vet appt in a few weeks ... vet wouldn't take a new pet until 8 weeks old (don't ask me why) unless it gets ill.  But kitty seems to be healthy.

    Pro tip: have your camera ready when they’re just waking up… catching them mid yawn is the best.
