Sadly, since we wrote this story, two of the kittens, Hannah and Eli, passed away. There is still time to help save the remaining two kittens.

A group of rescuers dedicated to fighting cruelty were heartbroken when they first saw these poor, suffering animals -- they were barely recognizable as kittens.

"They were most likely abandoned simply because of their medical conditions," Kim D., with Proverbs 12:10 Animal Rescue, tells Waggle. "They were found covered in fleas and suffering from severe eye infections -- left alone on a scorching hot day and seeking shelter beneath a car, desperately trying to escape the heat."

When the rescue heard about these helpless kittens, they wasted no time racing Hannah, Eli, Samuel and Penny to the animal hospital.

Veterinarians discovered their eyes were ruptured and draining. The kittens are being treated with antibiotics and eye ointment, which will help alleviate their discomfort and prevent further complications until they are healthy enough for surgery.

"The vet thinks it's unlikely that their eyes can be saved, but kittens are incredible, so there is still hope," Kim says.
The kittens are already beginning to rebound. They are starting to eat on their own; their foster has been syringe-feeding them to help them gain strength. With every day, their survival rate increases.

With your generous contributions, Proverbs 12:10 Animal Rescue can provide these brave kittens with the medical care they desperately need. Please show these little warriors just how much they matter!
