Prayers And Good Thoughts Needed

Paris, TX(Zone 8a)

I have a 5 month old feral kitten outside, that is not doing too well. A few days ago, I noticed that her back legs started wobbling as she walked. She seemed healthy otherwise, and still had an appitite, so I tried not to worry, but still decided to keep an eye on her. Yesterday, she wouldn't eat any dry food, but would eat the canned food I gave her. Everytime I tried to catch her, she escaped under the shed.

This morning, she wouldn't eat anything. Not even canned food. I called my vet, but since she's feral, and hard to catch, I didn't feel it would be fair to make an appt. I was told to call back if I caught her. When I tried, she, again, ran under the shed. I went back in the house, watched a little TV, and had myself a good cry. Finally, I decided to try again. I managed to get between her and the shed, and because of her wobbly leg, she couldn't outrun me.

She is now in the pet taxi on my front porch, awaiting her 2:30 appt. I just made with the vet. I'm so glad she's going to see the vet, but also apprehensive, not knowing if we can even help her. Please say a prayer or two for her, and wish us the best. I really want him to be able to save her.
