Honeydew Melon ๐๐ Update! (The kitty that walked right up to me while I was outside)







as you all know, a kitten found me outside my home while i was hosing some stuff off, and didn't want to leave! my original post is here:

here is her vet update!
NEGATIVE for FeLV!
she got all of her vaccines
no microchip! we will be adopting her, and we have decided to name her Honeydew Melon, nicknames melon, dewdew, miss dewdew, etc etc! it suits her eyes i think : )
no ringworm! seems to just be a scab on her chest from something while she was outside
if she is pregnant, itโs too early to tell. a LOT of you said she looked like a trojan kitty, and her belly does feel big. but she hasnโt gone number 2, and the vet couldnโt feel any kittens, nor are her nipples enlarged. if sheโs pregnant, itโs just early.
on that note, she has a spay scheduled in 3 weeks where she will also get her booster shots!
those are they big takeaways. we are also going to be giving them a stool sample to check for worms and parasites.
she weighs 6.7 lbs, and is a lot older than i expected! they estimate her to be between 8 months to a little over a year old based on her teeth. it seems she was likely nutritionally stunted as an outdoor cat and thats why shes so itty bitty : (
she hated the carrier, but was a trooper at the vet. she definitely loves humans. the more people in the room, the happier she was. she flinched when they drew her blood but didnt flinch at all when they vaxxed her! shes so brave! and was purring the whole entire time. shes a happy girl
