Pip update
So, I guess this is mostly an update for some of the people that know me, as well as Agnes. First off, Agnes, thank you for your tips. I've bought some KMR for Pip. I've decided to name him since I considered adopting him. (yeah, I'm pretty sure it's a him according to Simba, sorry M).
Pip is eating well, drinking KMR, drinking water, and has solid stool. He still has fleas, and as I just discovered today, worms. So, I know that I've said that I was planning on taking Pip to the vet, but I've had so so much to do this week in dealing with my car, and with work. Anyway, I'm taking Pip to Banfield Pet Hospital tomorrow morning. I'm not sure that I can do anything about the worms, and I want to get him "healthified" as soon as possible now that I've got most of my car stuff sorted. By the way, I hate the DC DMV. Anyway, Pip is very loving, and I'm going to get him healthy and then probably put him up for adoption. I don't think I can handle a kitten right now, but I can handle nursing him back to full health (as healthy as a runt can get).
Although I'm not sure how long he was with his mother, he does purr a lot, and is kinda talkative. He is the runt, although he's so sweet. His meow sounds like a pip, hence the name. So, after I take him to the vet, I'll post another post and let everyone know the prognosis and how he's doing.
Stay tuned...
