19. Wow. When I got my present kitty off of Craigslist the first thing I did was take her to the vet.

He checked her up and down, inside and out, and made sure she was de-wormed. She was bottle-fed from birth because her mother rejected her and therefore a little under-nourished and small for her age. We kept our eyes on her health but she started to thrive as soon as I adopted her. Sometimes you have to go beyond the regular vet protocols and take matters into your own hands. That is what you are doing and why your kitty is recovering now. You're a wonderful kitty parent!
