Normal days at the Vet office are never normal. Surprises can turn up at an time. Surprises like the little kittens that I began fostering in October of 2012. Meet Azimuth and his sister Mizzen:

I decided to give them nautical names because they were found on a boat. They were only about 2 weeks old and needed to be bottle fed, and needed assistance going to the bathroom. I fed them a mixture of goat milk and kitten milk replacer.

They seemed to be doing really well, but I noticed that Mizzen's eye looked a little strange. Like she could open her eye lid much wider on one side and you could see the vein on her tiny little eyeball.
Little did I know this would be the beginning of a long road. Her tiny little eyes would get crusty and she began pawing at them like they itched or hurt. Then they became infected.Time for baby's first vet visit!
