Meet Harley, the rescue kitten!

So was working the other day and went outside on break and found this kitten.

They were cold, wet, and the mamma cat clearly didn’t want it. I warmed them up in the house, got a heat pad, and went and got kitten formula for them.

With the help of some very good friends, pet smart employees, and the animal ER, I’m happy to say so far they are on the right track!

I named them Harley because I’m reminded of how my dad found a little black puppy when he was on his motorcycle, and I found a little black kitten.

Now I have to figure out how to do school, work, taking care of a kitten, doing M+ and raiding lol

I want the slime kitty and KSM mount so gonna have to figure out how to budget my time xD 2 hour feeding schedules are crazy!

So many things on my plate!

Edit: seriously why was this flagged? In all seriousness why?

To add: I moved it to off topic just incase? It’s wow related (it’s why I put it in general in the first place) because I’m not sure how I’m gonna balance everything but it is what it is. I’m happy to have this little kitten and the rewards etc I’ll be able to work towards! I’m not worried about it!

Are her eyes open yet?

I have 3 cats, all 3 were ones me and my wife rescued, and they’re just… absolutely nuts. I cant remember the last time my house was silent.
Love the name, and the reasoning.

Look at the lil babyyyyyy!

That is a very new kitten. Besides talking her to a vet might I suggest watching some of the Kitten Lady’s videos on youtube? She’s taken care of so many kittens and you might find some more tips you didn’t think of there.

Good luck, keep strong. I hope the best for you and the lil one.

Na not yet. I’m estimating she is about 3 to 4 days old.

lol ty for that and yeah idk how we are gonna deal with 2 cats if we keep Harley. I’m asking friends to see if there’s anyone that would be happy to take them once they get old enough.

That’s who I referenced XD Love kitten lady!

Thank you all for the wishes and I hope they keep pushing through! I’m not sure if it’s a girl or boy so I picked a name that’s somewhere between lol

That is a LOT of work. The bottle feeding alone will take lots of time. Good luck and good on you for taking them in!

Thank you for that and yeah getting her to latch is something else. Interestingly enough, I’m getting better rest taking small 1 to 2 hour naps being up for half an hour then going back to sleep.

My other cat Cutie wants nothing to do with the kitten and hisses at it but that’s probably because it’s a new cat.

Real young then. Lucky she got found.
If you can’t find anyone, and cant keep her, you could always find a local humane society.
That’s what I did with 3 kittens the momma cat abandoned on our porch, and I believe they’ve been adopted out to proper homes now.

And i’ll use this as a chance to post their cute little faces:

Yay! Good on you for rescuing the baby kitty! Yay!

Yeah, that’s a really young baby.

Is that an easy to warm up, rice-sock heating pad? Those are super super useful!

Not yet. I will try to take them Monday or Tuesday if possible.

I ran out of rice so I used beans. That’s what’s in the sock XD

Sorry for the late reply. Just got done feeding them.

lol, yyeeoop - rice, beans, whatever, will work. Super, super useful, very easy to warm up. And the “wet heat” makes them feel better than regular old heating pads, imho.

That little one is just so sweet. Thank you for being so awesome!:smiley:

Since it’s such a young kitten you’re probably going to need to facilitate it eliminating waste. At this age many can’t do this as the momma cat teaches them how. Usually a warm cloth wiped on their nether regions will allow them to go to the bathroom. I’d watch a video or two on it as well so you know what you’re doing if you don’t already know.

Ty for that and I have been doing that! They are going potty (least number 1) number 2 hasn’t happened yet but I just found them yesterday.

Blizzard needs a cat MMO obviously most of the player base are cat lovers.

If it was a slime panda mount no one would care, but Slimesaber mount:

Poor thing, it’s so tiny. Crazy how some momma cats have zero instinct, I guess that’s a side effect of domestication. Glad it seems to be doing well.

Both of these are adorable, but they gray one ought to be illegal. Just… omg. I wouldn’t be able to say no.
