 Gizmo was a baby tortie that found us one morning when we were outside talking to our neighbor. She crawled out from under a lawnmower and meowed at us. She followed us indoors after we gave her a can of food. And she has stayed with us ever since. Gizmo was a baby tortie that found us one morning when we were outside talking to our neighbor.

-She gave birth to 7 kittens: Baby Bear, Fuzzy Bear, Selina, Velvet, Butters, Mango, and a small kitten that died soon after birth. 5 out of 7 of those kittens died of FIP. She is fixed now, and very fat. !%%[[%%cats.jpg]] Ghost joined us not long after Gizmo found us. There was a hurricane, and another neighbor found him struggling in a storm drain. The neighbor gave him to us because apparently we're the only ones who take care of cats around here. I remember he came to us wrapped in a red blanket. We had just gotten a cloud shaped cat tree, and we let him sit on that while he acclimated to the other kittens. Ghost was young enough that he was also feeding on Gizmo's milk, though he was a bit bigger than everyone else. Gizmo accepted him as one of her own babies. Ghost died of FIP in 2024.+She gave birth to 7 kittens: Baby Bear, Fuzzy Bear, Selina, Velvet, Butters, Mango, and a small kitten that died soon after birth. 5 out of 7 of those kittens died of FIP.

 We went to a regular vet the next day. They did not diagnose them with anything in particular, but I do remember them saying that "cats don't get parvo". So that's one of the first times I was like "hmm vets don't even agree with each other". Just like human doctors lol. The vet sent us home with fever shots, antibiotics, and intracutaneous fluids to administer to them every 4 hours. We went to a regular vet the next day.
